How to use

Connect the GAV 66202 sandblasting gun to a suitable compressed air source and set the air pressure according to the abrasive media manufacturer’s recommendations and the workpiece material. Arrange an appropriate external abrasive feed system so that media is delivered reliably to the gun; follow safety and installation instructions for the feed device. Hold the pistol with a stable grip and direct the nozzle at the work surface from a controlled distance, moving steadily to achieve uniform cleaning or profiling. Adjust air pressure and feed rate to balance blasting effectiveness and surface safety for the material being treated.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment including respiratory protection, eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Select abrasive media, nozzle size and air pressure according to the substrate and desired finish. Test on a small area first to confirm settings and avoid damage to delicate surfaces. Maintain the external feed system and gun nozzle to prevent clogging and ensure consistent performance.
