OPERATION
4.1
Season Filter Cartridge
NOTICE
Do not pulse a new dust collector or
replacement filter cartridge until the cartridge is
properly seasoned, per Section 7.10.
Pulsing unseasoned cartridges can decrease
the efficiency of dust collector and cause
premature cartridge failure.
4.2
Media Loading
4.2.1 Media capacity:
The approximate capacity and
minimum media amount is shown in the table in below.
Reclaimer Size Minimum Wt. Capacity
300 cfm
10 lbs
50 lbs (0.5 cuft)
4.2.2 Media loading:
With the exhauster OFF, add
clean, dry media by pouring it through the reclaimer
door. Do not fill above the hopper on the reclaimer.
Do
not pour media directly into the cabinet hopper, as
overfilling may occur.
Overfilling will result in media
carry over to the dust collector and possible blockage in
the conveying hose. Refill only after all media has been
recovered from the cabinet.
4.3
Media Unloading
‒ Figure 13
4.3.1
To empty the cabinet and reclaimer of media,
blow off the cabinet interior and run the exhauster until
all media is recovered from the cabinet. Turn OFF the
exhauster, and place an empty bucket or other suitable
container under the metering valve. Unscrew the plastic
plug from the metering valve, permitting media to flow
into the bucket. If media does not flow, it has caked;
open the fill door and stir media until it starts to flow.
Before the container becomes too heavy to easily
manage, replace the plug and empty the container.
Replace the plug when the reclaimer is empty, or, if
changing media type, purge the media hose, as noted
below.
4.3.2
To purge the media hose, before replacing the
plug turn ON the exhauster, grasp the gun, and press
the foot pedal using the gun to blow off the cabinet
interior until the air from the gun and the cabinet are
clear. Turn OFF the exhauster and replace the plug.

Loading and Unloading Parts
WARNING
Use solid fixturing to hold heavy parts in place.
Do not remove lift equipment until the part is
adequately supported to prevent movement.
Moving heavy, unsupported parts may cause
them to shift or topple, and cause severe injury.
This is especially important with the use of
turntables and turntables with tracks.
NOTE: Parts must be free of oil, water, grease, or
other contaminants that will clump media or clog
filter cartridge.
If parts are oily or greasy, degrease
and dry them prior to blasting.
4.4.1
Load and unload parts through either door.
4.4.2
When blasting small parts or objects having
small pieces that could become dislodged and fall off,
place an appropriately sized screen over the grate (or
under the grate when frequently blasting small parts) to
prevent parts from falling into the hopper. If an object
should fall through the grate, stop blasting immediately
and retrieve it.
