Technical Data 1.6 Advice for operators of the blast machine During the operation of the S410E it may be possible to exceed the acceptable noise level of 85 dB(A). This is dependent on the different locations and the local circumstances. When the noise level is 85 dB(A) or more, the machine operator and the persons working near the machine must wear sound–insulating devices.

General 3.1 Operative range The blast machine S410E is a downward blasting machine with a closed abrasive circuit designed for the pre-treatment of horizontal surfaces. The bouncing impact of metallic abrasive onto the surface to be treated thoroughly removes surface contaminants, coats of paint, sealants and thin coatings.

Page 29
Load on the motor is indicated by the amp meter. Do not load more abrasive than recommended for the S410E, the max load is at 27 Amp. Higher load will cause the motor to fail or damage of the motor.
Page 30
Operating Manual S410E General Abrasive Control Lever This Lever (1) is located on the control panel (2) and regulates the magnetic valve (3) to control the flow of abrasive towards the blast wheel. The valve is hand- operated and can be set to each amount of abrasive throughput by changing the lever position.
(4). The correct rotation of the S410E blast wheel is CCW. (L) The centre of the blast wheel shows a pre-accelerator, called impellor (5) feeding dosed quantities of abrasive onto the blades of the turning blast wheel.
Operating Manual S410E General 3.6 The separator The separator (1) is mounted to the end of the rebound plenum. The deflector (5) and baffle plate (4) will stop the reflected abrasive. The filter, connected to the hose connector (8) will generate an appropriate airflow within the separator so this device will separate dust from abrasive.
General 3.7 The traction drive The S410E is driven by a 1.1 kW electric drive motor. The power is transmitted via a chain drive. The drive wheel (1) and the drive sprocket (5) are not linked rigidly. The transmission is built from the traction drive wheel (1), sprocket (5) and chain.
Operating Manual S410E General 3.8 The base seals On the front and side are magnetic seals (1) surrounded by brush seals (2). On the rear you will find a seal called tail-seal (3) this seal slides over the surface and hinders abrasive getting out of the blast area.
The S shot abrasive is of very high quality and owns the rebouncing ability required for the efficient use of model S410E. The selection of the abrasive is very important since this is the material to carry out the surface treatment.
Page 36
Operating Manual S410E General Media S shot 330: Applications: creates a fine to medium texture on concrete removes glazing from tiles prior to subsequently coating with antiskid floor sealing. removes old impregnations and coatings about 1 mm / 0.04 in thick.
Page 37
The effectiveness of the S410E depends on the rebound effect which ensures that the abrasive can be re-used. Please take into account that the use of incorrect abrasive increases wear.
Operating Manual S410E General 3.10 Care and maintenance Special attendance and regular maintenance of the machine and its parts are imperative for functioning and safety. In order to prevent unnecessary downtimes, it is recommended to keep original spare and wear parts on stock as listed in the maintenance box.

S410E Operating Manual Maintenance 7.1 Recommendations Prior to any repair work on the machine and its drives, secure the machine against unintentional switch-on. Put the machine to its Safety Off Position as described in chapter 2.6 Failures due to inadequate or incorrect maintenance may generate very high repair costs and long stoppage periods of the machine.
Operating Manual S410E Maintenance 7.2 Maintenance and inspection list Operating hours/ Inspection points, maintenance instructions time period 12 h after repairing Check function of all safety devices. Check all accessible screw connections for tight seat. Every 3 h Check whether there is any foreign matter in the hopper, the feed spout or in the blast wheel unit.

HOT ZONE of the blast pattern. Correct adjustment of the control cage and thus of the blast pattern is the most important factor for optimum working with the S410E blast-machine. Incorrect adjustment of the control cage results in very high wear and premature blasting-through of the liners in the blast wheel housing, as well as reduced blasting performance and a possible loss of the rebounce energy of the abrasive.
Page 64
Operating Manual S410E Maintenance Each time the wheel kit cage is replaced, the thread of the blast wheel fastening screw should be checked. Make sure that this screw will be tightened up correctly. In addition, absolute care must be taken to clean the thread from dust and abrasive.
Page 65
S410E Operating Manual Maintenance Worn tune-up kit: With increased wear of the wheel-kit (impellor, control cage) the blast pattern will change. Size of abrasive: The size of the abrasive affects the blast pattern. Every change of abrasive requires the blast pattern to be set or to be re-adjusted.
Page 66
Operating Manual S410E Maintenance The adjustment can be carried out as follows: Determine the upper (OK) and lower (UK) window edges of the control cage (1). Set the upper window edge (OK) of the control cage to imaginary 11.00 of a dial. Place the cage clamps (3) and fix them with nuts (2). Finally replace the feed spout (5) onto the control cage.
S410E Operating Manual Maintenance Picture B Adjust the control cage until the HOT ZONE (HZ) is exactly in the middle of the blast pattern. (B). Now the blasting procedure can be started. When a concrete surface is to be blasted, check the blast pattern again after some meters and re-adjust slightly if necessary.
Working on steel means to set it down as far as possible. On the S410E the adjustment is done by 4 setting screws (one screw (2) each at the rear wheels and two (1) on the inner side of the traction drive bracket.
S410E Operating Manual Maintenance 7.7 Belt Drive The V-belt is designed for the installed drive power. Forcing the drive to grant a higher output by over tensioning the V-belt results in belt breaks, bearing damage and thus to lower efficiency. A low V-belt tension results in slippage causing an increased belt temperature and thus to premature destruction of the V-belts.
Operating Manual S410E Maintenance 7.9 Belt tension To achieve a maximum power transfer and live time the correct setting of the belt tension is essential. Often belts are set with the wrong tension and fail before normal service time. Belts, that are set with too...

Operating Manual S410E Maintenance 7.11 The chain drive The mounting, demounting and repair work needs always to be done with appropriate tools. With these works the prevailing safety regulations must be strictly observed. Chain drives are relatively robust and reliable even under unfavourable operating conditions.
S410E Operating Manual Maintenance 7.13 Fitting the chain Before mounting the chain, it must be degreased to prevent any abrasive or abrasive particles from adhering. The chain is supplied as a chain string and has to be prepared during mounting.
Operating Manual S410E Maintenance In order to clean thoroughly first remove the dirt adhering to the outside of the chain drive using a hard or wire brush. Then wash the chain in petroleum ether or similar. After this, clean the dirt from the internal parts of the chain. To do this put the chain for approx.
