Prior to any repair works on the dust collector and its drives, secure the dust collector
against unintentional switching on. Put the dust collector to its safety off position.
Also
make sure there is no air pressure on the pulse system.
Follow additional operating and maintenance of OEM if included
during your service and maintenance work.
Further is advised:
Store the cleaned and dry machine in a dry and humid free room. Protect the electrical motors from moisture,
heat, dust and shocks.
All repair work must to be done by qualified Blastrac personnel, this to guarantee a safe and reliable machine.
Any guarantee on the machine is expired when:
Non original Blastrac parts have been used

When to change the filters?
If the dust collector loses suction power first try the following before continuing:
1.
Check if the silencer is fully opened.
2.
Ensure that the compressor is fully pressurized and then turn it off. Remove all moisture from the
compressed air tank by using the drain valve. Turn on the compressor again until it is fully pressurized
again, now use the air gun to completely empty the pulse tank.
3.
Only turn on the compressor, and keep the fan unit turned off. Let the machine pulse for about a half
an hour. This action will clean the filters from the inside.
When the machine still does not perform adequately, the filters probably
need to be exchanged.
If the silencer blows out dust, stop the machine immediately!
This means probably that a filter is damaged or not fitted properly inside
the filter chamber. Check the filters and replace if necessary.
When a filter was damaged, has leaked or was mounted incorrect, it has
to be replaced. The compartment above the filters, the connecting air
hoses and the silencer also have to be cleaned thoroughly.
Continuing work with a broken/leaking filter can cause serious
damage to the machine and is a health hazard!
Never expose the filter cartridges to moisture!
