TapeTech T05CF Bazooka Continuous Flow Taper - Manual (Page 14)

The finishing process using the Bazooka® Continuous Flow Flat Finisher Box and Handle.
There are three important facts you should remember about the Bazooka® Continuous Flow Flat Finisher Box and
Handle:
•
The learning curve is minimized because the brake and box operation is almost identical to a traditional Ames®
box and handle.
• The teardrop shape of the handle makes it very comfortable and easy to use.
• Unlike traditional boxes that must be loaded and reloaded using a hand pump, Bazooka® Continuous Flow can
work continuously without having to stop and reload.
GENERAL:
1. The continuous flow flat finisher boxes and handles are used to apply joint compound over previously taped
joints. They are easy to operate and produce uniform results every time.
2. The boxes come in 3 widths: 7”, 10” and 12”. Generally the next larger sized box is used over the previously
used size until the desired level of finish is obtained. These are the same sizes as the original Ames® boxes!
3. These special boxes must be used with the handles and box slide controller designed for them. The handles come
in 4 lengths, 34”, 42”, 54” and 72”. These are the same sizes as the original Ames® handles!
4. The handles have an ergonomic shape to improve performance and comfort.
5. A special box slide controller is attached over each handle to control the flow of material from the pump into the
finisher box.
6. Using the upper hand, the operator simply presses a trigger on the transmitter box to turn the pump on and off
as desired.
