BLOWER
FUNCTION
The blower is the most important part of the TYMCO AIR SWEEPER
®
as it furnishes both
pressure for the blast orifi ce as well as suction for the suction nozzle. The blower is designed
for maximum performance with low noise and is constructed of an aluminum alloy for light
weight. Blower life can be effectively increased by keeping the dust separator clean and
functioning properly. More importantly, operating the blower at as slow an RPM as possible
will reduce abrasive wear not only to the blower but throughout the machine.
