You can avoid overflow of material in the debris
bag by monitoring the water level and dumping
the recovered water when ¾ full or when you have
downtime. The debris bag should be checked at
the beginning of the shift as part of the pre-start
procedure or when you believe it may be reaching
its capacity. It should also be checked at the end
of each shift. Debris should never be left inside the
debris tank for a period of more than two days.
Debris will harden and conform to the shape of
the tank walls making it very difficult to dump.
Once dumping operations are complete it is criti-
cal that the door seal and it’s point of contact be
cleaned to maintain a water tight seal during op-
erations. The O-ring seal and point of contact on
the primary vacuum tube on top of the debris tank
must also be cleaned before the tank is lowered
to the full down position. Also make sure all drain
valves are closed before resuming waterblasting
operations.
Always comply with local guidelines and state law
when dumping recovered water and debris.
