Routine Maintenance Guides

Regular maintenance is essential for ensuring the long-term performance and reliability of your confetti cannon. Following these simple steps will keep your equipment in top condition.

Continuous Confetti Cannon

Routine Maintenance Steps

1. Clean the Feed Tube and Hopper: After each use, disconnect the CO2 tank. Use a dry microfiber cloth and a small brush to wipe away any residual confetti dust or debris from the hopper and feed tube. This prevents buildup that could clog the confetti cannon during future use.
2. Inspect the Valves and Hoses: Check the CO2 valves and high-pressure hose for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Ensure all connections are secure and free of debris. If you notice any damage, do not use the confetti cannon and contact support immediately.
3. Check All Fasteners: Perform a quick visual inspection of the entire unit to ensure all bolts, screws, and other fasteners are tight. A loose component can affect performance and safety.
4. Store Properly: When not in use, store the confetti cannon in a clean, dry location. Disconnect all hoses and ensure the unit is completely free of confetti.

Tools & Materials Needed:

• A dry microfiber cloth
• A small brush (a paintbrush or a stiff brush)

Electric Confetti Cannon

Routine Maintenance Steps

1. Clean the Barrel: After each use, ensure the confetti cannon unit is unplugged. Use a dry microfiber cloth and a small brush to wipe away any residual confetti dust or debris, especially around the cartridge slot. This prevents buildup that could affect future cartridge connections.
2. Inspect the Power Cord & Connections: Periodically check the power cord for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage. If you notice any damage, do not use the confetti cannon and contact support immediately.
3. Store Properly: When not in use, store the confetti cannon in a clean, dry location. Ensure the unit is completely free of confetti and that no CO2 cartridge is inserted.

Tools & Materials Needed:

• A dry microfiber cloth
• A small brush (a paintbrush or a stiff brush)

Stage Confetti Cannon

Routine Maintenance Steps

1. Clean the Barrel: Use a dry microfiber cloth and a small brush to wipe away any residual confetti dust or debris from inside and outside the barrel. This prevents buildup that could affect the confetti launch.
