3.2 Using Top Gun
Hold the nozzle of Top Gun at the desired distance (typically 2 to 12
inches from object to be cleaned) and press trigger to activate air
flow and ionization. Use a back and forth motion to clean object, the
ionization will neutralize any static charges.
When the trigger is pressed, the LED on gun will increase in
intensity indicating operation of the electrical circuitry. The LED is
normally illuminated at a reduced intensity to indicate the gun is
ready for operation.
The air flow can be set as desired using the flow
control knob in the gun handle. With full pressure
applied to the power unit, the flow can be
controlled from a whisper to a blast with the flow
control knob.
The Optical Sensor (OS) version comes preset
for maximum airflow; the Flow Control Knob is
disabled by a locknut. It is not possible to
increase or decrease the air flow in “OS” version.
This gun complies with the Occupational Safety and Health Act
(OSHA), 29 CFR ch. XVII, Part 1910.242B, entitled "Compressed
air used for cleaning". This part reads "Compressed air shall
not be used for cleaning purposes except where reduced to
less then 30 psi and then only with effective chip guarding and
personal protective equipment". The gun complies with the air
pressure limit through pressure relief slots in the nozzle;
however, effective chip guarding and personnel protective
equipment must be provided by the user.
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), 29 CFR ch. XVII, Part
1910.95, entitled “Occupational noise exposure” specifies a
maximum permissible noise exposure of 3 hours per day at 97 dB.
At maximum pressure the gun produces a noise level of 97 dB;
therefore, wear hearing protectors if the Top Gun is operated
continuously for more than three hours per day.
