Why is my Grizzly G0707 media spray intermittent or clogged?

If you're experiencing intermittent, clogging, or no media spray from the blast gun, or notice striping on your workpiece with Grizzly Shot Blasting Machines, several factors could be at play. Start by checking for a clogged suction tube—clear it by covering the blast tip and pressing the foot pedal to purge the system with air pressure, repeating this periodically. Ensure you're using the correct, uncontaminated media. Inspect the blast tip for wear, rotating it to an unworn area if needed. Verify adequate air flow and pressure from your compressor, supply lines, and air dryers. Adjust the air regulator on the cabinet, checking for hose kinks or clogs. Avoid overloading the cabinet with media. If issues persist, disassemble, clean, and reseal the blast gun and foot valve.
