    3.10 Care and Maintenance Operative Range The IMPACTS blast machine S125E is a downward blasting machine with a closed abrasive circuit designed for the pre-treatment of horizontal and vertical surfaces. The bouncing impact of metallic abrasive onto the surface thoroughly removes surface contaminants, coats of paint, sealants, and thin coatings.
  • Page 12 S125E Operating Manual Description of the Machine Wheel Motor On/Off Switch Handles Abrasive Control Lever Separator Wheel housing Dust Hose Connection The blast wheel method is a revolutionary invention based on a simple principle: After mechanical pre-acceleration, the abrasive is thrown onto the surface at high speed by the blast wheel.
  • Page 13 Operating Manual S125E The Wheel Kit The heart of every blast machine is the blast wheel (3). This will throw the abrasive to the surface using centrifugal forces. The blast wheel is placed in a wheel housing (G) protected with replaceable wear plates (S). The blast wheel is driven by a electric motor.
  • Page 14 The machine has been specially designed to use these abrasives. The IMPACTS abrasive IMPACTOR is a very high quality blast media. It has the right rebound power to use the S125E blast machine very efficiently. The selection of the blast media is very important consideration for proper treatment to the floor surface.
  • Page 15 Please consult your IMPACTS customer service department if you have any questions about the selection of the best abrasive for your blast cleaning work.

    Dimensions General Notes Before the machine is used for the first time, IMPACTS authorized dealers offer a course to familiarize maintenance and operating personnel with all elements of the machine. We are not liable for damage caused by incorrect use of the machine by personnel not trained by IMPACTS.

    Operating Manual S125E Chapter 5.0 Start Up Preparing for Start Up Start Up Start Up on Vertical Surfaces Preparing for Start Up Move the blast machine and the dust collector to the working site. Check the blast wheel, control cage, feed spout, all liners, and the separator for damages and wear. Worn and damaged parts have to be changed before starting the work.
  • Page 18 S125E Operating Manual Before start-up operators and other personnel must be familiar with the safety regulations given in this manual. 1. Place the blast machine and the filter unit onto the surface to be treated. 2. Check the main power cable and the dust hose for damage. Replace or repair all damaged parts before starting the machine.
  • Page 19 Operating Manual S125E Start Up All persons near the machine must wear safety glasses with lateral protection, ear protection, and safety shoes. The operator is obliged to wear close fitted protective clothing. The start up of the blast machine and the filter unit should happen in the following order: 1.

Only trained personnel can operate and perform work on the machine.
  • Page 22 S125E Operating Manual Information about the Chart Speed The blasting speed is achieved by manually pushing the machine. The selection of the correct chart speed of the blast machine is essential for a good result. The chart speed depends on the material of the surface to be blasted and the desired profiling. The correct chart speed will be found out by observing the blasted surface and varying the speed during the blast cleaning process.
  • Page 23 Operating Manual S125E Turning Off the Machine To switch off the machine, please follow the described procedure: 1. Close the abrasive feed valve by releasing the lever (1) while the machine is still moving forward. NOTE: Keep moving the machine forward as long as the feed valve is not fully closed to assure no grooves are blasted into the surface.
  • Page 24 After a fault make sure that you find the reason of the fault before you restart the machine. If you do not find the fault or if you are unsure about the reason for the fault, please contact your IMPACTS contact person and ask for help. For the start up of the machine, see Chapter 5.

As a rule, production standstill periods are more expensive than the cost for the corresponding spare part. • Screws that have been removed must be replaced with those of the same quality (strength, material) and design.
  • Page 28 S125E Operating Manual The following three factors will affect the blast pattern: 1. Worn Wheel Kit: With increased wear of the Wheel Kit (impeller & control cage), the blast pattern will start to change. Please replace. After changing the Wheel Kit, the adjustment of the control cage must be checked and re-adjusted.
