If media flow is too light, decrease air in the 

mixture by turning the metering screw in (clockwise when 
viewed from the top) covering more of the holes so less air 
enters the media hose. Tighten the locking nut finger-tight 
to maintain the setting. 

 

 
 

6.0 PREVENTIVE 

MAINTENANCE

 

 

6.1

 

Clean the debris screen daily: To clean, turn the 

exhauster off, open the media fill door and remove 
screen. Empty the screen and replace it, making sure it 
is securely re-attached to the inner cone. 
 

6.2

 

Check metering valves for obstructions: This is 

especially important on reclaimers used with automated 
shot peening equipment, where the nozzle flow may not 
be seen. Check flow through the clear, metering valve 
tube. Blockage occurs in this area if the debris screen is 
improperly installed or is detached, or when the 
metering valve needs adjusting. 
 

6.3

 

Periodically check media hose for soft spots. 

Replace the hose as soon as soft spots are noted. Worn 
hose could collapse, and restrict media flow. 
 

6.4

 

Periodically check the reclaimer inlet and outlet 

pipes, flex hose, and ducting for wear, and replace as 
required.  
 

6.5

 

Check optional rubber liners. Replace liners 

when the rubber is worn-through.

MAINTENANCE

 

 

7.1 

Replacing Wear Plate

 

 

7.1.1

  Remove the inlet adaptor and old wear plate. 

The wear plate is held in place by screws attached from 
the outside of the reclaimer. 
 

7.1.2 

Angle the new wear plate into reclaimer inlet 

until it is in position with the straight end at the reclaimer 
inlet. Using a board or similar object as leverage, pry the 
wear plate against the inner wall and top of the 
reclaimer, and install sheet metal screws to hold in 
place. Caulk any gaps or voids around the top of the 
wear plate to prevent rapid wear. 
 

7.2 

Replacing Optional Rubber Liners, Figure 9

 

 
Installation Note: When installing the liners, ensure that 
seams are aligned. The final assembly must be smooth 
and free of protrusions, edges, and gaps. Any edges will 
disrupt the air flow, causing wear, and affect the 
reclaimer’s media cleaning efficiency. 
 

7.2.1

 

Remove the inlet and outlet flex hoses. 

 

7.2.2

  Remove the bolts located next to the inlet 

adaptor that secure the end of the inlet baffle to the 
reclaimer weldment. 
 

7.2.3

 

Remove the socket head screw that secures the 

inlet-top liner to the reclaimer top.

7.2.4

  Remove the bolts securing the reclaimer top, 

and remove the top, along with the top liner and inlet 
baffle. NOTE: Inlet baffles are tack-welded to the inner 
tube. Before removing the baffle, make an alignment
