Operation Manual and Part List

Model SBC Abrasive Finishing Blast Cabinet

Notice:Any blast cabinet will produce a powerful flow of abrasive

particles.To avoid personal injury and property damage.Study this

manual thoroughly before assembling,operating or servicing this blast

cabinet.

Please read instructions before operation the blasting system!

Failure to foliow these instructions could result in operator injury as well as

void the blasting system.

Your SBC Blast cabinet is designed for cleaning,polishing and finishing

with dry abrasive ONLY.such as glass bead or plastic granule abrasives.The fin­

ishes can vary from course .to.fine according to the sizing of the glass bead.on

delicate pans.start out with minimal air preesure to avoid unnecessary peening

or undesired,excesslve abrasion.

Do Notice your blasting system is equipped with a 3-prong grounded plug

for protection against shock.When connecting your unit obey all applicable

electrical and safety codes including the National Electric Code (NEC)and the

Occupational Safety and Health Act(OSHA).The blasting system should be

plugged into an adequately grounded 3·prong receptacle.If only a 2-prong re­

ceptacle is available.have it replace ,,�th the applicable natjonal and local codes

or ordinances.Only a qualified elecuician should perform this work.A grounded

adapet Can be used.Make sure the green lead from adaptor is properly attached

to a suitable electric ground Note:The Canadian Electrical code prohibits the

use of 3-prong adaptors.

Abrasive media is very slippery ,md should be cleaned up immediately to avoid

possible operator injury.

3.Attach the air ._;upply line from a compressor capable of maintaining 5cfm at 80 psi to the inlet connection found on the right side of thecabinet,Because of variation in air supply systems,the air inlet couplingis not provided.Use the particular fitting that is compatible with your airsupply system

Do Not Orerate the Blasting System At over 100 psi.

4.Check the air supply line fittings and hose attachments to the rear of thegun.Also make sure the media supply hose is attached tightly on the nippleon the underside of the gun.

5.Place no more than 10 pounds of abrasive media into the center of thecabinet.Excessive amounts will create clouded cabinet conditions.blowby or media through the exhause,or sluggish and ineffective blastingperformance.

6.With the air supply connected,all fittings and joints not leaking and theunit is plugged in,you are ready to test the blasting system.Now.followthese steps for startup operation

a.Place the part in the cabinet.Always close and latch the lid afterplacing the part in the cabinet prior to blasting.Severe injury to theskin and eyes may result from exposure to the blast stream.

b.After putting your hands into the gloves,grasp the gun and depressthe trigger.This should begin the blasting flow.If no flow is seenyou may. need to cl.ear the tube by covering the gun nozzlemomentarily ..

c.Now you may begin finishing the pan. You should move theblast.stream continuously over the part in an even and circular motion.The flow should not be too hard or coneentrated to avoid undersirablepeening.

MAINTENACE Note:Disconnect power and air before any maintenance!

All blasting system is prone to plugging or wear because of the abrasive material used and the applications.The followig items should be checked for wear as indicated:

Plugged Conditions The blast nozzle may become plugged from moist media.Try

dislodging the media with a drill bit held in your hand.You need to get rid of the mosit media. if the abrasive pick-up hose appears plugged,cover the gun tip and force the air back through this hose.Dust may fly up when you do this so make sure the lid is down!

Wear conditions This is usually noted when an excessive amount of dust appears in the cabinet.Dust will occur if:

l.The abrasive blasting media is worn out . If it has lost itsgranular or spherical appearance or has a lot of debrisfrom the parts being blasted and mixed in,replace it.Thisis usually noticed when the abrasive media that exits the nozzle looks like a smoke cloud coming instead of a stream

2.The air outlet vent is lugged or air flow out is blocked.Cleaning this vent should help reduce dust in the cabinet.This gun parts may wear may wear out.This is usually evident1vhen tile blast pattern is too wide and ineffective,simply replacenozzle or orifice

. To replace the transparent PVC board At tile bottom of parts No. 1 transparent top lid ,thereis a 0.5mm rleplaceable transparent PVC board.when at work,if the transparent PVC board is getting unclear,it may be replaced with a new one to avoid affecting the sight during work.
