OPERATION
Little Blaster™
1. Preparing Parts for Blasting :
All parts to be processed must be free of oil, grease, and moisture. Make
sure parts are dry before putting into cabinet for processing.
2. Air Pressure :
Set air pressure at 40 ~ 80 PSI. Most parts for blasting should be blasted at
80 PSI. Designate parts to be processed, start at lower pressure, and work up
the PSI scale to obtain desired finish.
DO NOT CONNECT TO HIGH PRESSURE BOTTLE GAS, RUPTURE AND
EXPLOSION CAN OCCUR.
3. Gun Angle and Distance:
Direct blast at part with an approximate (45-60) degree angle
with ricochet toward the back side of cabinet. Do not hold at
90 degree to part being processed. This will cause the media to
blast to bounce back into the blast stream and slow blasting
action. Also 90-degree angle will cause excessive wear on gun
and viewing window. Hold gun approximately 6 inches from
part being cleaned.
GUN MUST ALWAYS BE POINTED AWAY FROM THE OPERATOR AND
TOWARD ITEM BEING PROCESSED. NEVER BLAST WITH ANY OF THE
CABINET DOORS OPEN. WHILE LOADING AND UNLOADING, NO ONE
SHOULD BE AT THE OPERATOR STATION AT FRONT OF THE BLAST
CABINET.
4. Media :
Media should be good quality and dry. Damp media will cause the media
not to flow and will clog abrasive flow.
