1. Introduction Before use, operators must be provided with information, instruction and training for the use of the machine and the substances for which it is to be used, including the safe method of removal and disposal of the material collected. All persons who are working with or maintaining this machine must read the manual carefully and understand it fully.
3. Safety Warning! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, explosions and / or serious injuries. The machine should not be used in the presence of an explosive atmosphere. It is the responsibility of the user to analyse the surface to be treated.
d) If the power supply cable or plug is damaged, it must be replaced immediately. Only use original parts. e) The voltage on the identification plate must comply with the power supply. Use an electrical power supply connection with earth connection and earth leakage circuit breaker. g) The circuit breaker of the power supply must have a ‘’D’’...
m) If safety-critical changes occur to the machine or its working method, the machine must be shut down immediately! The cause of the fault must be established, and rectified. n) In the event of operational malfunctions the machine must be shut down immediately and secured! o) Never use the machine without a suitable dust collector! Shot/steelblasting safety a) Never lift the blast head during blasting! This could cause serious injury to yourself and others around...

c) Before every use check the lifting eyes/lugs and welds for: deformation, damages, cracks, corrosion and wear. d) When lifting the machine from the ground, always use the lowest lifting speed. The cables must first be tensioned at this speed; they must not be slack when the machine is lifted from the ground. e) During hoisting make sure to be at a safe distance from the machine with the most optimal view on the machine and working environment.
Signs on the machine The following stickers are placed on the machine. Meanings of these symbols are: Wear a dust mask class FFP2 or ! Danger Hazardous voltage in motor higher. even when solid state controller is OFF. Disconnect main power before servicing motor, controller or associated wiring.

Hopper The abrasive storage hopper contains the abrasive before it is led to the feed spout and abrasive valve. Fill the separator equally with the selected abrasive up to the bottom of the separator tray. The abrasive valve must be closed whilst doing this. Check regularly and refill if necessary. 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.
2. Adjust the height until the brush list seals are 1 mm/ Abrasive material seal 0.04 in above the surface. The abrasive material seal is a seal system with 2 side seals (A), 1 front seal (B) and 1 rear brush (C). The abrasive material seal makes sure that the abrasive material stays in the product during operation.
8. The second person removes the tools for the side seals on both sides of the product (E). Abrasive material Speak to your Husqvarna dealer for the selection of correct abrasive material for your surface operation.
Blast wheel The heart of the blast cleaning machine is the blastwheel, it throws the abrasive onto the surface to be treated using centrifugal force. The blastwheel is placed in a protective housing lined with replaceable wear parts. The blast wheel is driven by an electric motor. Impeller bolt Cage clamps Control cage...
4.10 Air suction system The air streaming through the complete system created by exhaust fans (1 on the machine and 1 on the dust collector) will separate the dust from the abrasive and transport the dust to the dust collector. The airflow will also help to cool the abrasive and machine.
5.2 Checkpoints of machine Safety functions and operating functions must work correct. Check all screws and other fasteners for tightness. No loose bolts and/or nuts are permitted. Check the electrical components, cables and connections for wear and/or damages. ...
Switch on the machine 1) Before switching on the blast machine, switch the dust collector on. The dustcollector is needed to vacuum off all the created dust and helps to cool the blast machine. 2) Check that the abrasive valve is closed (abrasive valve handle downwards) 3) Press the green push buttons “FAN ON”...
Make sure that no vehicles, such as forklift trucks and other equipment run over the electric cable and the dust hose. The selection of the correct advancing speed of the blast machine is important for a good blast cleaning result. In the case that the surface has different characteristics (e.g.
The following 5 factors affect the blast pattern: -The turning direction of the blast wheel must correspond to the instructions on the housing (arrow indicating the turning direction). -With increased wear of the blast wheel, blades, impeller and control cage, the blast pattern will change.
6. Maintenance Pay attention to Chapter 3 "Safety" during maintenance and repair works. Failures due to inadequate or incorrect maintenance may generate very high repair costs and long standstill periods of the machine. Regular maintenance therefore is imperative. Operational safety and service life of the machine depends, among other things, on proper maintenance. The following table shows recommendations about time, inspection and maintenance for the normal use of the machine.
Any guarantee on the machine is expired when: Non original parts have been used Repair work is not done by qualified personnel Changes, add on’s or conversions are undertaken without written permission. Screws, bolts etc. that have been removed must be replaced with those of the same quality, strength, material and design.
Changing the blast wheel blades and impeller Remove the abrasive storage hopper from the separator. Remove the cage clamps and control cage. Block the blast wheel and remove the central fixing bolt. Remove the impeller using a wooden or brass drift. ...
The V-belts The V-belt drives are designed for the installed driving power. To force a higher output through an excessive high tension of the V-belts will result in broken belts, damage to the bearings and causes loss of the total efficiency.
Troubleshooting Fault Possible cause Remedy Excessive vibration Blast wheel is worn irregularly. Imbalance Replace the worn blast wheel parts and due to worn or broken wheel blades. remove all broken parts from the machine. Machine fan impeller is worn. Replace the worn fan impeller. Unusual noise Too little play or poor alignment of the Check alignment of the rotating parts...

Fault Possible cause Remedy Contaminated abrasive The dust collector is not generating Check the dust collector (filter-cartridges, enough suction power so that dust remains dust hopper and seals). in the abrasive. Check and clean the dust hose Clogged dust hose Replace dust hose Ripped or damaged dust hose Excessive wear in blast...
8. Selection of abrasive The blast cleaning machines are designed and built to operate with our abrasive. Our abrasive has a very high quality and has the rebouncing ability required for the efficient use of the machine. The selection of abrasive is very important since this is the material to carry out the surface treatment.

Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and noise such as: proper and regular maintenance of the machine and the accessories, keeping the hands warm, organization of work patterns for example by using rotation schedules. The use of anti-vibration gloves could also decrease the effects of the vibrations transmitted.
