INTRODUCTION
The GB/Jet Line Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
) Conduit Fishing Sys-
tems are high pressure tools which are used to place a pull line
in most conduit runs from
1 /
2
” through 6” diameter.
These systems are completely self-contained and no other
energy source is required. They are convenient to use in
remote locations and in new construction where there is no
temporary electrical power available or where only one or two
conduit runs are required.
Each system consists of five basic components:
• A high pressure gas (CO
2
) driving media.
• A control valve to start and stop the gas flow.
• Hose and seal-off to conduct the gas to the conduit and form
a seal at the conduit entrance.
• A line carrier to serve as a movable piston that supplies the
pulling force.
• Pull line for pulling wire through the conduit or to pull in a
rope or cable for large difficult runs.
A thorough understanding of all components and their function
and operating precautions is essential for safe and efficient use
of the system.
Read all of the instructions before attempting to use the system
or blow line in the Conduit.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Wear a hard hat, eye
protection, and gloves.
When using a carbon dioxide
conduit fishing system basic
precautions should always
be followed. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE INSTRUC-
TIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Do not discharge a cylinder
containing carbon dioxide
(CO
2
) in a non-ventilated
manhole or other non-ventilated areas. Carbon dioxide is rela-
tively inert, but is heavier than air and will displace it and accu-
mulate in depressions and along the floor. Concentrations of
