INTRODUCTION

This blast cabinet is designed for high-use media

blasting operations, where air flow up to 25 CFM

and air pressure up to 120 PSI can be used. Air

pressure is fully adjustable with a control panel

air pressure regulator. A fixed blasting gun and

a hand-held blasting gun are included in this

machine. Blasting operations through a hand-held

blast gun or fixed gun are controlled by a foot

valve and control panel.

An internal set of fluorescent work lamps provide

illumination during blasting operations, and a

built-in dust collector maintains blasting environ-

ment visibility. The cabinet is equipped with two

side loading doors for ease of workpiece loading

and unloading. Media is quickly unloaded through

the hopper dump port door, and reloaded through

a side door.

Safety Instructions for Machinery

SECTION 1: SAFETY

Model G0707 (Mfd. Since 01/15)

-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.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-

ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or

loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is

stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult

this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-

ommended accessories. Using improper acces-

sories will increase the risk of serious injury.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the

risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and

ensure all moving parts completely stop before

walking away. Never leave machine running

while unattended.

MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance

instructions and lubrication schedules to keep

machine in good working condition. A machine

that is improperly maintained could malfunction,

leading to serious personal injury or death.

DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine

for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or

any condition that could affect safe operation.

Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating

machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate

machine with damaged parts!

MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect-

ing cord-connected machines from power, grab

and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord

may damage the wires inside. Do not handle

cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by

keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic

areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time

you experience difficulties performing the intend-

ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our

Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

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.

5. WORK AREA SAFETY. To prevent acci-

dental contamination of shop air, clean dust

collector and filters often, and repair any

suction hose leaks immediately.

6. MAINTAINING COMPONENTS. To pre-

vent accidental contamination or blast inju-

ry, replace tips, hoses, lenses, and gloves

when they become worn.

7. SAFE MEDIA BLASTING. Do not use sys-

tem over the rated PSI or lines and seals

may burst and cause injury.

8. CORRECT LIGHTING. To prevent ballast

overload and possible fire, do not install

lamps that use over 18 watts.

9. LOADING & UNLOADING. To prevent

accidental blasting injury, disconnect the

air supply before loading or unloading the

workpiece from the blast cabinet.

10. SAFE MAINTENANCE. To prevent acci-

dental blasting injury or shock, disconnect

air supply and power before doing mainte-

nance.

11. SAFE MEDIA BLASTING. To prevent dust

exposure, always secure the door(s) before

beginning media blasting operations.

1. PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT.

Media blasting presents a real hazard of

silicosis and other lung contamination inju-

ries! These injuries are permanent and can

get worse over time. If you use media blast-

ing equipment without the proper head-

gear, eye protection, and respirator, your

lungs and eyes may become permanently

damaged. DO NOT use this blast cabinet

unless you know how to use it. Protect

yourself correctly, and keep all unprotected

bystanders away. For latest types of protec-

tive equipment and acceptable respirator

types, contact your local OSHA or NIOSH

office.

2. LEAVING THE AREA. To prevent acci-

dental blasting injury, disconnect air supply

when leaving the blast cabinet.

3. MAINTAINING MACHINE. To prevent acci-

dental contamination of shop air, check the

blast cabinet for any leaks before use, and

Site Considerations

Weight Load

Refer to the

Machine Data Sheet for the weight

of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon

which the machine is placed will bear the weight

of the machine, additional equipment that may be

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.

Model G0707 (Mfd. Since 01/15)

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, it is necessary to level your machine

with a precision level.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts (Figure 5) and

anchor studs are two popular methods for anchor-

ing an object to a concrete floor. We suggest

you research the many options and methods for

mounting your machine and choose the best that

fits your specific application.

Mounting to Shop

Floor

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.

Figure 5. Typical fasteners for mounting to

concrete floors.

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.

Model G0707 (Mfd. Since 01/15)

Air Supply Setup

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 with the largest blast

tip, the CFM feeding the regulator should be 35

CFM at 120 PSI.

Refer to your compressor Owner’s Manual and

make sure that the compressor can handle the

load of a blasting cabinet. Often a 5 HP compres-

sors are used, but the duration of the work shift

and tip size installed must be reduced so the

compressor duty cycle is not exceeded. Ignoring

this requirement could lead to compressor over-

heating and failure. The rule of thumb is that, the

smaller the compressor, the less CFM available,

and greater cool-down time required.

If this blast cabinet is to be used at full capacity

in eight-hour work shifts at the maximum air pres-

sure of 120 PSI using the largest tip, an industrial-

grade compressor capable of delivering up to 35

CFM may be required.

For smaller compressors, make sure to increase

the compressor maintenance interval 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 environment.

If even small amounts of fine media dust enter the

compressor through the intake or during general

service, rings, pistons, valves, and bearings can

be quickly destroyed.

Remove any in-line oilers, make the supply line

long enough to allow the compressed air to fully

cool before it reaches the gun, and install an

in-line water separator or air dryer. Tilt air sup-

ply lines slightly back toward the compressor so

residual condensation in the lines will run back to

the tank instead of the media blasting unit. For a

general summary of the typical air system of this

blast cabinet and supply system, refer to the Air

System Diagram on Page 39.

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.

Typically, when installing a new supply line for the

blast cabinet with a 125 foot run or less, the air

supply line up to the regulator inlet should have

an inside diameter of

⁄4". For runs up to 300', a

supply line with a 1" inside diameter is recom-

mended.

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.

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. With the help of an assistant, lay a sheet of

cardboard on the floor to protect the media

blasting cabinet, and place the cabinet on its

back.

2. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, fasten all four

legs to the underside of the cabinet with (16)

⁄4-20 x

⁄2" cabinet screws and flange nuts

(Figure 7).

3. Attach the two side supports (Figure 7) to

the left and right set of legs with four cabinet

screws and flange nuts.

4. With the help of an assistant, stand the blast

cabinet upon the legs.

5. Using three Phillips screws and flange nuts,

fasten the hopper chute door to the hopper,

as shown in Figure 8. When secured, latch

the hopper door closed.

6. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the suc-

tion port baffle (Figure 9).

15. Re-install the baffle and install both side

doors with the eight M5-.8 x 10 flat head

screws and hex nuts already in the cabinet.

16. Verify that a plastic dust sheet is affixed to

the inside of the cabinet viewing window and

the lamp window (Figure 13).

Figure 12. Dust collector suction port.

7. Using four cabinet screws and flange nuts,

fasten the dust collector to the rear of the

cabinet, so the suction port protrudes through

the hole cut into the back of the cabinet

(Figure 10).

8. Plug the dust collector into the in-line power

supply plug protruding from the control box

(Figure 10).

9. Unlatch the dust collector motor (Figure 10),

lift the dust collector out of the canister, and

set it aside.

10. Working from inside of the canister, insert the

canister plunger through the canister wall so

it can be seen protruding from the outside of

the canister.

Figure 10. Dust collector.

12. Re-install the dust collector into the canister.

13. Using a 10mm wrench, tighten the jam nut

against the knob.

14. Using silicone (not supplied), seal the gap

between the suction port and the hole in the

cabinet wall (Figure 12).

11. Place the spring on the plunger shaft, and

thread the jam nut and knob onto the plunger

as shown in Figure 11.

17. Using the fasteners already in the cabinet

and doors, install the doors, then receivers,

and adjust the receivers so the doors slightly

compress the foam seal when closed (Figure

14).

18. Route the blasting guns and hoses to elimi-

nate any kinks or binds (Figure 15).

Figure 15. Blast gun and hose positioning.

19. Position the foot pedal (Figure 16) between

the legs where it will be convenient to use.

The pedal may also be fastened to the floor if

the unit will not be moved.

Figure 16. Foot pedal positioning.

20. Pour the desired amount of media into the

cabinet through one of the side doors. DO

NOT overfill.

21. Wait 24 hours for the silicone sealant to fully

setup and dry. Otherwise, when the machine

is turned on and media blasting begins, the

seal may be broken, causing leakage.

22. Inspect all seals, hose clamps, glove clamps,

and window seals for any potential leaks.

Correct as required.
