The Shot Valve Handle - Husqvarna BLASTRAC EBE 350S Operating Instructions Manual

4.4 Control handle of the abrasive valve
Between the abrasive storage hopper and the blast housing there is a valve in order to control the abrasive
flow towards the blast wheel. Any change in the opening of the valve causes the amount of abrasive fed to the
blast wheel to change. The change in the abrasive fed can be read from the ammeter. The valve is hand-
operated and can be adjusted so that any quantity of abrasive can be fed to the blast wheel. Optimum blast
cleaning power is reached when the ammeter indicates 20A. It is not permitted to blast with a higher current
value.

The shot valve handle

This handle is located at the right side of the hopper and regulates the shot valve to control the flow of
abrasive towards the blast wheel. When the handle is pulled upwards, the shot valve is opened and abrasive is
allowed to travel towards the blast wheel in a progressive, controlled manner.
