INTRODUCTION

This blast cabinet is designed for high-use media

blasting operations, where air flow up to 16 CFM

and air pressure up to 120 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 lamps provide

illumination during blasting operations, and a

built-in dust collector maintains blasting environ-

ment visibility. The cabinet is equipped with front

and side loading doors for ease of workpiece

loading and unloading. Media is quickly unloaded

through the hopper dump port door, and reloaded

through one of the doors.

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 access to

a means of disconnecting the power source or

engaging 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.

-14-

Model G0708 (Mfd. Since 1/15)

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 4) 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 5. Machine mount example.

Using Machine Mounts

Using machine mounts, shown in Figure 5, 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 4. 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 G0708 (Mfd. Since 1/15)

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 16

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 16

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

8. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the suc-

tion port baffle (Figure 9).

Attach the two side supports (Figure 6) to

the left and right set of legs with four cabinet

screws and flange nuts.

With the help of an assistant, stand the blast

cabinet upon the legs.

Remove the lamp box from inside of the cabi-

net, place the glass and the lamp box onto

the top of the cabinet, and fasten them to the

the cabinet with the six

⁄4-20 x

⁄2" cabinet

screws.

Fasten the pressure gauge and regulator "L"

bracket (Figure 7) to the left front leg using

two cabinet screws and flange nuts.

To assemble the blast cabinet:

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

side or back.

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 6).

screws and hex nuts already in the cabinet.

Figure 12. Dust collector suction port.

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).

Plug the dust collector into the in-line power

supply plug protruding from the control box

(Figure 10).

11.

Unlatch the dust collector motor (Figure 10),

lift the dust collector out of the canister, and

set it aside.

12.

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.
