1. Introducere
The AUTOOL HTS558 Walnut Blaster is designed for deep removal of carbon deposits from engine intake manifolds, intake valves, and exhaust valves. This process helps restore engine health by addressing issues such as unstable idling, insufficient fuel combustion, and reduced air-fuel ratio. The machine utilizes walnut sand as a cleaning agent, which is an eco-friendly, non-toxic, and corrosion-preventive material known for its hardness, pressure resistance, and wear resistance.

2. Informații de siguranță
Always prioritize safety when operating the AUTOOL HTS558. Failure to follow safety guidelines may result in injury or damage to equipment.
- Protecția ochilor: Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from walnut sand and carbon debris.
- Protectie respiratorie: Ensure adequate ventilation or wear a respirator to avoid inhaling fine dust particles.
- Presiunea aerului: The air pump pressure should be more than 0.7Mpa (7bar/102PSI) for optimal performance.
- Motor oprit: Ensure the engine is completely turned off and cooled before beginning any cleaning procedures.
- Walnut Sand: Use walnut powder with a diameter between 0.4-0.8mm. Avoid exposure to water, as it can cause clumping and nozzle clogging.

5. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
Perform carbon cleaning using the following procedure:
5.1. Prepare Engine for Cleaning
Turn off the engine. Rotate the crankshaft to ensure the intake valve of the cylinder you are working on is closed. This prevents walnut sand from entering the combustion chamber.
5.2. Insert Nozzle and Begin Cleaning
Insert the sandblasting gun with the appropriate adapter into the engine's intake port. Activate the machine to begin spraying walnut sand. The integrated design allows for simultaneous spraying and recovery of walnut sand and carbon deposits.

5.3. Cleaning Duration
Cleaning time typically ranges between 1-3 minutes per port, depending on the severity of carbon buildup. Monitor the cleaning progress as needed.
5.4. Inspect Results
After cleaning, visually inspect the intake manifold and valves to ensure all carbon deposits have been removed. Repeat the process if necessary.

6. Întreținere
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your AUTOOL HTS558.
- Curățarea filtrului de praf: The built-in dust filter separates recovered walnut sand from carbon deposits for recycling. Periodically check and clean the filter to maintain efficient operation.
- Walnut Sand Management: Walnut shell grit tends to clump and clog the nozzle when exposed to water. If clumping occurs, shake or blow dry the grit to break up the clumps before use.
- Depozitare: Store the unit in a dry, clean environment when not in use.
