One way is to simply blast it out. You can remove the nozzle from the blast hose to speed this process up, but make sure to hold on tight! Without the nozzle there to restrict airflow, the recoil can be rather strong.<\/p>\n<p>If there is still a lot of media and \/ or water in the machine and you don&#8217;t want to waste diesel blasting it out, you may also remove theflange at the bottom of the blast pot&#8217;s cone to let it all drain out.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-0366cc7376be6c9e82a3e9cc8987b64f'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><ul>\n<li>Fully depressurize machine<\/li>\n<li>Remove 2 bolts from bottom of machine<\/li>\n<li>Remove 2 \u201cears\u201d from bottom of machine<\/li>\n<li>Remove air inlet jet (looks like a pilgrim hat)<\/li>\n<li>Remove gasket<\/li>\n<li>Push casting and air hose out of the way<\/li>\n<li>Flush out inside of equipment with water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once media and water are out of machine, reverse procedure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Put gasket on air inlet jet<\/li>\n<li>Insert air inlet jet and gasket<\/li>\n<li>Hold casting up to bottom of machine<\/li>\n<li>Use ears and bolts to re-secure casting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n-webkit-border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n-moz-border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_column av-av_one_half-0aa7055fe62c3622faec82866afbaeb2 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding '   ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-bb705dad27e8be2b320c0aabcc7b1422\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-bb705dad27e8be2b320c0aabcc7b1422 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-bb705dad27e8be2b320c0aabcc7b1422 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-6  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-3250 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-3250 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/flange.gif\" alt='' title='flange'  height=\"468\" width=\"400\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":3278,"menu_order":81,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3249"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3249"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3249\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4714,"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3249\/revisions\/4714"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3278"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dustlessblasting.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
