General Instructions: Run the sand suction hose on top of the lance. If sand suction hose is under the lance during operation water can run down the sand suction hose getting the sand wet and it will not flow through the head. Eventually the hose will plug and the assembly will need to be cleaned and dried before using. Several pieces of electrical tape can be used to hold the hose in place. Silica sand is recommended.

| How to Operate Your Pressure Washer and Sandblaster |
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, always protect eyes and face with goggles and mask, and hands and arms with heavy work gloves when spraying abrasive materials.
Place the sand blaster induction probe in the sand supply container.
How To Sandblast :
1. Connect and open the water supply line before starting the pressure washer.
2. Trigger the gun to relieve the air in the equipment.
3. Start the pressure washer. See its instruction manual.
4. Trigger the gun to activate the spray.
CAUTION: Always test spray on a scrap of similar material first! The high pressure spray could damage the surface if the sandblaster is held too close. See step 5 below.
5. To check the distance you will need to hold the spray nozzle from the surface, start to spray at the scrap of material from a distance of several feet. Gradually move closer, checking frequently to see if the high pressure spray is damaging the surface.
6. See the application below for the type of sand recommended for your work surface.
Always point the nozzle downward when not spraying. This prevents water from entering the sand supply. If water does get into the sand supply hose, remove the probe from the sand, hold the gun trigger open, and let the hose air dry. Always be sure the sand hose is dry before using.
Keep the sand covered to prevent the overspray from wetting the sand. Do not allow small pieces of the sand bag to fall into the sand supply. A smaller piece could prevent the flow of sand.

Paint Removal
Read about paint removal with a pressure washer and sandblaster attachment.
Sand Mesh: sand mesh refers to the size of sieve through which a particular grade of sand will pass. A "16/50" mesh means that normally, most of these particles will pass through a No. 16 sieve and a very small percentage will pass through a No. 50 sieve.
Note: A No. 16 sieve is a mesh that has 16, 0.046 sq. in. (1.19mm) openings per inch.
Round Sand: this refers to the round edge of the grain of sand. River is a good example of sand worn to its size by water.
Angular Sand: this refers to the grain of sand which have triangular-shaped edges. Crushed rock or sand is usually this type.
Blasting Angle and Distance: this blasting angle can affect the nozzle distance. Always maintain the recommended blasting angle and the proper distance from your work surface for the best sandblasting performance.
