MICROGRAIN PNEUMATIC SANDBLASTING BOOTH
2. Place the blast system near 115V/60Hz(240V/50Hz)AC electrical outlet. Make sure the receptable will accept
the plug, so that the unit will be properly grounded. Also make sure to check the power source is adequate for
use with this blast system. An electrician should be consulted if the proper outlet is not available or if the user in
any way questions the condition of the
electrical circuit (see note on manual).
3. Attach the air supply line from a compressor capable of maintaining 5 cfm at 80 psi to the inlet connection
found on the right side of the cabinet. Because of variation in air supply systems, the air inlet coupling is not
provided. Use the particular tting that is compatible with your air supply system.
Do Not Operate the Blasting system over 100 psi.
4. Check the air supply line ttings and hose attachments to the rear of the gun. Also make sure the media
supply hose is attached tightly on the nipple on the underside of the gun.
5. Place no more than 10 pounds of abrasive media into the center of the cabinet. Excessive amounts will create
clouded cabinet conditions, blow by media through the exhaust, or sluggidh and ineffective blasting performance.
6. With the air supply connected, all ttings and joints not leaking and the Unit is plugged in, you are ready
to test the blasting system. Now, follow These steps for startup operation.
a. Place the part in the cabinet. Always close and latch the lid after placing the part in the cabinet prior
to blasting. Severe injury to the skin and eyes may result from exposure to the blast stream.
b. After putting your hands into the gloves, grasp the gun and depress the trigger. This should begin the
blasting ow. If no ow is see you may need to clear the tube by covering the gun nozzle momentarily.
c. Now you may begin nishing the part. You should move the Blast stream continuously over the part in
an even and circular motion. The ow should not be too hard or concentrated to avoid undersirable peening.
