General Safety Information
(Continued)
create static electricity while you are
sand blasting. If you are not grounded,
the static electricity can build up on
your body and cause a shock when
you touch a metal object. You can
avoid static electricity by wearing
leather soled shoes and standing on
the ground. If necessary, a grounded
wire attached to the sand blast gun
will safely remove the static electricity.
Remember, you are not grounded if
you are insulated from the ground.
Rubber soled shoes, rubber boots, or
other rubber or plastic footwear are
insulators. Avoid standing on dry wood
(like a wooden pallet) a dry mat, or dry
carpet.

MoISTUrE In CoMprESSED aIr
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as the air comes from
the compressor pump . When humidity is high or when a compressor is in
continuous use for an extended period of time, moisture will collect in the
tank . When using a sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank
through the hose and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the material
being sprayed .
IMporTanT: THIS CONDENSATION WILL CAKE THE SAND AND CLOG THE
SANDBLASTING GUN . A CLOGGED GUN WILL NOT OPERATE .
A compressed air dryer and/or air line filter will help eliminate this moisture .
