The
Blastrac
blast cleaning machine 900-VMB is a vertical blasting machine with a closed abrasive circuit
exclusively designed for the pre-treatment of dry, frost free vertical surfaces. The bouncing impact of metallic
abrasive onto the surface to be treated thoroughly removes surface contaminants, (epoxy) coats on different
types of vertical surfaces. The intended use of this machine is blast cleaning of the following surfaces: Steel,
concrete and stone. 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. This machine has a Work
Load Limit of 1120kg.
The Blastrac 900-DC filter unit must be connected to the machine in order to separate the dust from the
abrasive. This specially designed dust collection system ensures dust-free operation of the machine and clean
air at the workspace.
