• Check the blast wheel blades, control cage, liners, & magnets for damages & wear.
Wear grooves are acceptable until 50% of blade thickness has been worn away.
When blade thickness has been worn away by more than 50%, replace all blades.
• Check the front, side, & rear seal system & brush seals for excessive wear.
• Check the tightness of the hose connections & the condition of the hose to the
filter.
• Check the electrical connections for dirt & foreign body deposits.
• Verify that the electrical motors are free of dirt & other contaminants.
• Check the level of shot in the storage hopper. Refill hopper if necessary.
• Verify that the main power cable & the dust hose are free of damage. Replace or
repair all damaged parts before putting the machine into operation.
• Check to confirm that all machine parts are assembled safely & correctly. It is
recommended to have original spare parts & wear parts on hand. It is imperative
that the machine receive special attention & regular maintenance in order to
function properly & to operate safely.
• Connect the blast cleaning machine & the filter unit with the dust hose. Use hose
clamps at the connections.
• Connect the supply cable of the blast cleaning machine with filter unit. Connect the
electrical cable of the filter unit with the site supply.
• Make certain that the side seals are positioned correctly.
• Check that the filter dust container has been emptied.
• Always blast in a straight line away from the dust collector. Blasting in a straight
line will produce the most uniform results. Never run over anything with the BP-9-
SP. Running over an extension cord, air lines, rebar expansion joints, openings in
floor, drains, etc. With the BP-9-SP can result in serious injury to the operator
and/or damage to the equipment.
• Make certain to keep hands away from all moving parts once the machine is in
operation.
• Make certain to never stand next to the blast housing while the BP-9-SP is in
operation as blade failure could result in serious injury.
• Make certain that the shot hopper door is closed while the machine is in operation
as the BP-9-SP throws shot which could present a serious danger if the shot
hopper door is not properly closed.
• Make certain that the blast seals of the BP-9-SP are not worn out. As these seals
provide the suction that is required by the machine, they will become dislodged if
they become worn out. This will then result in shot being discharged from the
machine. It is consequently recommended that the operator make absolutely
certain that the blast seals are in good working condition before putting the BP-9-
SP into operation.
• In the unlikely event of a failure, turn main power switch to the OFF position &
make certain that the BP-9-SP & the dust collector have been disconnected from
all power sources.
If the BP-9-SP shot blasting machine is operated using a generator as the power
source, the generator must be operated in accordance with the current VDE directives
(this applies to the protective earth conductor in particular) in order to ensure that all
