Empty the Used Abrasive Buckets
Next, you will empty the Used Abrasive from the collection system. During cutting, Abrasive is constantly being
introduced into the Jet. To prevent accumulation on the bottom of the Tank, the Used Abrasive is constantly
collected and routed into two Used Abrasive Buckets located at the front of WAZER Pro. You must empty both
Used Abrasive Buckets before every Cut.
To empty the Used Abrasive Buckets:
• Remove the Front Tank Cover.
• Rotate the handles upwards and pull the Used Abrasive Buckets out
of their retainers.
• Dump the Used Abrasive into a container to await final disposal.
• Re-install the buckets
• Re-install the Front Tank Cover. You will also see the front of the
handles sticking out beneath the front lip of the Front Tank Cover
when correctly installed.
• Confirm task completion by pressing “OK” on the Control Panel.
Not all the Used Abrasive will be collected from the Tank and there will always be some that accumulates and
remains in the Tank. With that said, excess abrasive at the bottom of your tank can result in the Collection
system getting clogged. Therefore we encourage running a Tank Cleaning Cycle in the following situations:- After
cuts and before turning off your WAZER Pro for a few days in order to collect the excess Used Abrasive.
For your first cut you do not need to worry about this step, but going forward we highly suggest doing the Tank
Cleaning Maintenance regularly.
Replacing the Used Abrasive Buckets is sometimes tricky, here are two techniques to help:
• The metal handles double as a locking mechanism to hold the buckets down. Rotate the handles so that they
are straight up, push the Used Abrasive Buckets all the way down, and rotate the handle forward. The hooks
on the handle should engage with the Tank and keep it down while it fills.
Failing to empty the Used Abrasive Buckets between Cuts will result in clogs of your filtration system.
The amount of time and work required to unclog the system is significantly greater than emptying your Used
Abrasive Buckets and performing tank cleaning cycles between cuts.
Dispose of Used Abrasive properly. The abrasive is inert, so it can be handled as a non-hazardous material
and thrown away as garbage waste. However, it is your responsibility to check with your local regulations and
requirements to make sure there are no restrictions around the materials you are cutting.
Bacteria can build up in the standing water of the Tank. Any injuries or cuts, even minor ones,
should be treated with caution. If you have open wounds avoid contact with the water or wear gloves that do not
expose you to the Tank water.
