2. Machine description
The
Blastrac
blast cleaning machine 1-10DPS is a downward blasting machine with a closed abrasive circuit
designed exclusively for the pre-treatment of dry, frost-free 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.
The intended use of this machine is blast cleaning of the following surfaces: Steel, concrete, stone and asphalt.
The machine may not be used for other purposes. The manufacturer will not be liable for damage resulting
from incorrect usage, in these cases the user assumes all risks.
A suitable filter unit must be connected to the machine in order to separate the dust from the abrasive. A
specially designed Blastrac dust collection system ensures dust-free operation of the machine and clean air at
the workspace.
