AIR SUPPLY & ASSEMBLY
3.1.
Air supply
3.1.1. You will require an air pressure of 80psi, and an air volume of 5cfm to operate the unit efficiently.
3.1.2. p WARNING! Ensure air supply is clean, dry and does not exceed 100psi. Too high an air pressure and/or unclean or damp air will
shorten the product life due to excessive wear and may be dangerous, causing possible damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.3. Drain the air supply tank daily. Clean compressor air inlet filter weekly. For recommended hook-up see diagram.
3.1.4. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for
unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum
hose and fittings bore should be 10mm.
3.1.5. Keep hoses away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Check hoses for wear and poor connections.
3.1.6. Cabinet input connection is 1/4”BSP.
3.2.
Assembly
Note: Numbers in brackets refer to item numbers shown in the Parts List.
3.2.1. Unpack the product and check contents. Should there be any damaged or missing parts contact your supplier immediately.
3.2.2. Push plastic suction hose (14) onto small diameter end of steel suction tube (15). Fit suction tube (15) under clips in base of cabinet.
3.2.3. Remove fitting (18) and one steel washer (17) from air hose connector (16), leaving on one steel washer (17) and rubber washer (33).
Put connector (16) through hole in side of cabinet and secure with washer (17) and fitting (18).
3.2.4. Fit flat filter (29) into filter housing (30). Remove blanking plug from rear panel and slide filter housing into slots on rear panel.
3.2.5. Fit screen (23) into cabinet with angled corner to rear right hand side, to allow suction hose (14) through.
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions in Section 1 before using the unit.
4.1.
Connect the air supply to the inlet on the side of the cabinet. Ensure the gun valve is in the "off" position before connecting the air supply.
p
4.2.
Check all fittings to ensure there are no air leaks.
4.3.
Pour the abrasive media into the centre of the cabinet. DO NOT use more than 10lbs (4.5kg). Excessive amounts of abrasive will impair
visibility, create poor blasting performance and could block the air exhaust.
4.4.
Fit suitably sized jet and nozzle into the gun bore and retain with the set screws.
4.5.
Plug the transformer into mains socket and transformer lead plug into light switch box and the unit is ready for use.
4.6.
Place the workpiece in the cabinet and close and latch the lid securely.
WARNING! Failure to securely close the lid could result in damage and/or personal injury.
4.7.
Turn on light and air supply and insert hands into cabinet gloves. Grasp gun and depress the trigger to start the blasting process.
p
4.8.
Move the blast media (which looks like steam) continuously over the workpiece in an even and circular motion. To avoid undesirable
peening the flow should not be too hard or concentrated. The surface finish may vary from coarse to fine depending on the size of the
abrasive media. On delicate workpieces, to avoid unnecessary peening or excessive abrasion, begin the blasting with a low airflow.
5. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Ensure the cabinet is disconnected from the electrical mains and the air supply before attempting any maintenance.
5.1.
Ensure the blasting media does not become damp. Keep the air supply dry at all times. Dispose of any damp media.
p
5.2.
Replace media when it has become excessively dusty, loses its granular or spherical appearance, or is significantly contaminated
with debris from workpieces. This is usually noticed when media from the nozzle looks like a smoke cloud rather than steam.
5.3.
Regularly check that the exhaust vents at the side and rear of the cabinet are clear.
5.4.
Regularly check gun blast nozzle to ensure it does not become blocked with media. Immediately replace worn or damaged nozzle.
5.5.
If abrasive pick-up hose becomes blocked, cover the gun tip to force air back through the hose. Ensure the lid is correctly closed.
5.6.
Replace the transparent protective sheet on the underside of the perspex window when visibility becomes reduced.
6. TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
Excessive dust in the cabinet.
Uneven blasting.
Inadequate speed or efficiency of blast.
Static electricity.
Blast pattern too wide or ineffective.
