INTRODUCTION
This blast cabinet is designed for high-use media
blasting operations, where airflow up to 35 CFM
and air pressure up to 125 PSI can be used. Air
pressure is fully adjustable with an air pressure
regulator, and the media output can be adjusted
with the media flow valve. Blasting operations
through a hand-held blast gun are controlled by a
foot valve, and most operations can be carried out
with all types of blasting media.
An internal set of fluorescent work bulbs provide
illumination during blasting operations, and a
built-in dust collector maintains blasting environ-
ment visibility. The front of the cabinet is equipped
with a large gas-assisted folding door for easy
workpiece loading and unloading. Media can be
quickly unloaded through the hopper dump port
and reloaded through the loading door.

NOTICE
Safety Instructions for Machinery
SECTION 1: SAFETY
Model G0714 (Mfd. Since 1/15)
-7-
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become
entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or
cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce
risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally
contacting cutting tool or moving parts.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery
operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or
long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust
hazards associated with each workpiece mate-
rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to
reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-
ing protection when operating or observing loud
machinery. Extended exposure to this noise
without hearing protection can cause permanent
hearing loss.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on
machinery can become dangerous projectiles
upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,
or any other tools on machine. Always verify
removal before starting!
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use
this tool for its intended purpose—do not force
it or an attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-
tions—modifying tool or using it differently than
intended may result in malfunction or mechanical
failure that can lead to personal injury or death!
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times when operating machine.
Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions
that make workpiece control difficult or increase
the risk of accidental injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and
bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.
Stop using machine if they become a distraction.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce
accidental contact with moving parts or flying
debris. Make sure they are properly installed,
undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE
operating machine.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.
It will do the job safer and better at the rate for
which it was designed.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury
may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting
tool is unintentionally contacted.

Additional Safety for Blast Cabinets
AVOIDING ENTRAPMENT. To prevent an
entrapment hazard for animals or children,
always close and latch the blast cabinet door
when not in use.
WORK AREA SAFETY. To prevent accidental
contamination of shop air, clean dust collector
and filters often, and repair any suction hose
leaks immediately.
MAINTAINING COMPONENTS. To prevent
accidental contamination or blast injury, replace
tips, hoses, lenses, and gloves when they
become worn.
SAFE MEDIA BLASTING. Do not use system
over the rated PSI or lines and seals may burst
and cause injury.
CORRECT LIGHTING. To prevent ballast
overload and possible fire, only install 26W T5
fluorescent bulbs.
SAFE MAINTENANCE. To prevent accidental
blasting injury or shock, disconnect air supply
and power before loading and unloading a
workpiece, and before doing maintenance or
changing blast tips.
PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT.
Media blasting presents a real hazard of silicosis
and other lung contamination injuries! These
injuries are permanent and can get worse over
time. If you use media blasting equipment without
the proper hood, eye protection, and respirator,
your lungs and eyes may become permanently
damaged. Protect yourself correctly, and keep
all unprotected bystanders away. For the latest
types of protective equipment and acceptable
respirator types, contact your local OSHA or
NIOSH office.
LEAVING THE AREA. To prevent accidental
blasting injury, disconnect air supply when
leaving the blast cabinet.
MAINTAINING MACHINE. To prevent accidental
contamination of shop air, check the blast
cabinet for any leaks before use, and reseal
immediately.
SAFE ENVIRONMENT. To avoid media escaping
from the cabinet, never use the blast cabinet if
the dust collector is OFF or its filter is clogged.
If you do, media will exit through the cabinet air
intake and enter the shop work environment.
Always close and latch the blast cabinet door
shut before and after operation.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.
Like all machinery there is potential danger
when operating this machine. Accidents are
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or
failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to decrease the
risk of operator injury. If normal safety pre-
cautions are overlooked or ignored, serious
personal injury may occur.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
Availability
Before installing the machine, consider the avail-
ability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrocution, fire, shock,
or equipment damage
may occur if machine is
not properly grounded
and connected to power
supply.
Full-Load Current Rating
The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.
Full-Load Current Rating at 110V ...... 11 Amps
The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-
loading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the specified circuit requirements.
Circuit Requirements
This machine is prewired to operate on a power
supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets
the following requirements:
Nominal Voltage ............................... 110V/120V
Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz
Phase ........................................... Single-Phase
Minimum Circuit Size ......................... 15 Amps
For your own safety and protection of
property, consult an electrician if you are
unsure about wiring practices or electrical
codes in your area.
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will
be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will
be connected to a shared circuit where multiple
machines may be running at the same time, con-
sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to
ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power sup-
ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
-10-
Model G0714 (Mfd. Since 1/15)
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair
or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-
essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service per-
sonnel if you do not understand these grounding
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-
nect it from power, and immediately replace it with
a new one.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
If you must use an extension
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must
be in good condition and contain a ground wire
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must
meet the following size requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size ...........................14 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.
Grounding & Plug Requirements
This machine is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding
plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle
(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT modify the provided plug!

Serious injury could occur if you connect
machine to power before completing setup
process. DO NOT connect to power until
instructed later in this manual.
SHOCK HAZARD!
Two-prong outlets do not meet the grounding
requirements for this machine. Do not modify
or use an adapter on the plug providedif
it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified
electrician install the proper outlet with a
verified ground.

installed on the machine, and the heaviest work-
piece that will be used. Additionally, consider the
weight of the operator and any dynamic loading
that may occur when operating the machine.
Space Allocation
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will
be processed through this machine and provide
enough space around the machine for adequate
operator material handling or the installation of
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,
leave enough space around the machine to open
or remove doors/covers as required by the main-
tenance and service described in this manual.
See below for required space allocation.
Physical Environment
The physical environment where the machine is
operated is important for safe operation and lon-
gevity of machine components. For best results,
operate this machine in a dry environment that is
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemi-
cals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are
generally those where the ambient temperature
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity
range exceeds 20%–95% (non-condensing); or
the environment is subject to vibration, shocks,
or bumps.
Electrical Installation
Place this machine near an existing power source.
Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or
other hazards. Make sure to leave enough space
around machine to disconnect power supply or
apply a lockout/tagout device, if required.
Lighting
Lighting around the machine must be adequate
enough that operations can be performed safely.
Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that may distract
or impede the operator must be eliminated.
Children or untrained people
may be seriously injured by
this machine. Only install in an
access restricted location.

Although not required, we recommend that you
mount your new machine to the floor. Because
this is an optional step and floor materials may
vary, floor mounting hardware is not included.
Generally, you can either bolt your machine
to the floor or mount it on machine mounts.
Both options are described below. Whichever
option you choose, we recommend leveling your
machine with a precision level placed on the table
surface.
Bolting to Concrete Floors
Lag shield anchors with lag screw and anchor
studs (see Figure 5) are two popular methods for
anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We sug-
gest you research the many options and methods
for mounting your machine and choose the best
that fits your specific application.
Mounting
Figure 6. Machine mount example.
Using Machine Mounts
Using machine mounts, shown in Figure 6, gives
the advantage of fast leveling and vibration reduc-
tion. The large size of the foot pads distributes
the weight of the machine to reduce strain on the
floor.
NOTICE
We strongly recommend securing your
machine to the floor if it is hardwired to the
power source. Consult with your electrician
to ensure compliance with local codes.
NOTICE
Anchor studs are stronger and more per-
manent alternatives to lag shield anchors;
however, they will stick out of the floor,
which may cause a tripping hazard if you
decide to move your machine.

concrete floors.

Air System Setup
Air Supply
The ability of this blast cabinet to accomplish its
task is directly related to how well the air supply
system is designed. For this blast cabinet to oper-
ate at its maximum potential for large blasting
jobs, with the largest blast tip and widest spray
pattern, the volume of compressed air feeding
the regulator should be 35 CFM at 125 PSI. This
requirement demands an industrial grade two-
stage compressor that is designed for near con-
tinuous duty.
Refer to your compressor Owners Manual and
make sure that the compressor can handle the
load of this industrial blast cabinet. Smaller com-
pressors can be used, but the duration of the work
shift and tip size installed must be reduced so a
safe compressor duty cycle is maintained. Not
allowing the compressor to cool will lead to com-
pressor or motor failure. The smaller the compres-
sor, the longer cool-down time that will be required
between the work cycles. However, with that said,
if a smaller diameter blast tip is used with a sharp
type of media, less air pressure and a lower CFM
can be sufficient for smaller projects.
If using smaller compressors, make sure to ser-
vice the compressor more frequently, and verify
that your compressor has the best cooling airflow
possible.
When filling or servicing the blast cabinet, there
is a risk of subjecting the compressor to airborne
media or dust. Be sure to locate the blast cabinet
away from the compressor operating environ-
ment. If even small amounts of media dust enter
the compressor through the intake or during gen-
eral service, the piston rings, valves, and bearings
can be quickly destroyed.
If an air compressor is not available or the blast
cabinet is to be used at a remote location, NEVER
connect this blast cabinet to pressurized bottled
gasses such as oxygen bottles used in welding
operations. Line ruptures or explosions can occur,
causing equipment damage, serious injury, or
death.
Air Plumbing
Usually, when installing a new supply line for a
blast cabinet where the complete system does
not exceed 125 feet, the inside diameter of the air
line should be
3
4". For runs up to 300', a supply
line with a 1" inside diameter is recommended. Be
sure to make the supply line long enough to allow
the compressed air to cool as much as possible,
so the moisture vapors can condensate on the
inner walls of the air line instead of accumulating
in the blast cabinet or the media.
Install the air supply lines with a slight tilt back
towards the compressor tank, so the moisture that
accumulates from condensation will drain back
into the compressor tank instead of puddling in
the low areas of the air lines. Install one or more
in-line water separators or an air dryer as close
to the blast cabinet as possible where the air has
had the most time to cool. Water separators typi-
cally work best on cool air rather than on hot air
that comes right out of the compressor tank.
For an overview of the typical air system for this
blast cabinet and its supply system, refer to the
Pneumatic Diagram on Page 16.
If using an existing air system, eliminate air supply
restrictions and pressure drops that may occur at
small quick-disconnect fittings, elbows, small sup-
ply piping, undersized water separators, kinked
lines, or rust-filled piping.
Remove any in-line oilers that are installed direct-
ly in the blast cabinet air supply line, or the media
and blast cabinet will become contaminated with
oil and blasting operations will quickly come to a
halt. Air supply lines for other machines that have
in-line oilers need not be removed, providing that
these lines only feed from the blast cabinet sup-
ply line.
Make sure to install an air supply quick-discon-
nect fitting or a shut-off valve that can be locked
out to prevent the air pressure from accidentally
being turned on. These items allow for the blast
cabinet to be serviced safely or allow it to sit idle
when not in use.

Assembly
To assemble the blast cabinet:
1. Disassemble the crate and place a sheet of
cardboard on the floor to protect the cabinet.
2. Tilt the cabinet off of the hopper as shown in
Figure 7, and place the cabinet on its back.
Leave the hopper in place on the pallet.
4. Drill or punch out the hopper mounting holes
in the hopper seal.
Note: Pre-punching holes in the hopper
seal will allow the fasteners to be started
and installed without the tendency to cross
thread.
In the next step, remember that the door
is spring loaded and the handles must be
held firmly before the door is unlatched and
opened. Otherwise, the door may suddenly
swing open and cause injury or damage.
These parts are heavy!
Get help from your assis-
tant when assembling
this machine. Otherwise
machine damage or
severe injury may occur.
3. Invert the hopper to expose the hopper seal
as shown in Figure 8.

To eliminate a pinch hazard, in the next
Step, keep your fingers clear of the hopper
support and blast cabinet mating surfac-
es. When the two items become aligned,
they can slide together without warning
causing a severe pinch injury.
NOTICE
In the next two steps, to avoid cross-
threading screws caused by any foam
gasket interference, carefully start the
screws by hand.
