SECTION 3: OPERATIONS
Sandblasting presents a real hazard of silicosis and other lung contamination injuries! These
Injuries are permanent and can get worse over time. If you use sandblasting equipment without
the proper protection, your lungs and eyes may become irreversibly contaminated. DO NOT
use this sandblaster unless you know how to use it and protect yourself correctly. For types of
protective equipment and acceptable respirator types, contact your local OSHA or NIOSH office.
Operation Safety
NOTICE
If you have never used this type of machine
or equipment before, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you read books, trade magazines, or get formal training before beginning any projects. Regardless of the content in this section, Grizzly Industrial will
not be held liable for accidents caused by
lack of training.
Basic Operation
The Model T27156 Sandblaster is equipped with
an industrial-duty blast gun with ceramic tip, a
siphon hose, a built-in light, large viewing window, and sealed rubber gloves. The hopper recycles and stores the sandblasting media for reuse
or easy removal. Safely blast away paint and rust
without making a mess around your shop.
4. Carefully, without causing a hazardous dust
cloud, pour or spade-in 10 lbs of abrasive into
sandblaster. DO NOT over-fill, or sandblasting
will be sluggish and very cloudy inside of
cabinet.
5. Insert workpiece, close and lock loading door.
6. Adjust air supply regulator to 60-100 PSI at
5-14 CFM.
7. Turn ON your dust collection/vacuum system
and air compressor, insert your hands in the
gloves, and begin sand blasting in a slow
circular motion.
Note: A good starting point for tip distance is
two inches away from the workpiece. Start out
with a low air pressure setting to avoid excess
peening and abrasive wear.
Note: Experiment with different pressures,
abrasives, tips and jets to gain practical
experience.
Note: Keep the sandblasting abrasives
moisture-free, otherwise; the blast gun tip will
frequently clog.
To use the sandblaster:
1. Wear safety glasses and respirator at all
times when running and maintaining your
sandblaster!
2. Plug in AC/DC transformer and turn ON light.
3. Install correct nozzle and air jet into gun for
abrasive type you will use. Refer to Page 9 for
options.
-8-
NEVER sand blast with the doors open,
point the gun at yourself or anyone else, or
attempt to service any part of this machine
while it is plugged in or connected to air
pressure. ALWAYS disconnect the blast
cabinet from power and air pressure when
not in use, or during maintenance or adjustments. Ignoring this warning may lead to
severe injury.
Below is a basic introduction to some of the most
common blasting abrasives. Refer to magazines,
trade articles, professionals, and the abrasive
manufacturer for the specific surfaces that can
be addressed with a type of abrasive. All abrasives have benefits and drawbacks like quality of
surface finish, abrasive life, toxicity, and what precautions you must take to prevent environmental
damage or personal injury to your respiratory
system.
Steel Type Abrasives
This aggressive abrasive creates a rough finish that accepts paint well. The abrasive is very
durable and has a long life, however; it MUST be
kept very dry to prevent rusting.
Plastic Type Abrasives
Applied at low pressures of 30 to 50 PSI, plastic abrasives should be harder than the coating
being removed, but softer than the workpiece to
avoid damage. Plastic abrasive is excellent for
addressing surface issues on aluminum, magnesium, copper, brass, thin steel, titanium, and
Below is the suggested air jet and nozzle combination for an approximate abrasive flow. Refer to
magazines, trade articles, professionals, and the
abrasive manufacturer for the best combination
that is required for your particular abrasive use.

⁄16"
Alumina Type Abrasives
This multi-purpose abrasive creates a smoother
finish than the steel abrasives, but has a shorter
life span. Less of the workpiece surface is
removed with this more forgiving abrasive.
Glass and Garnet Type Abrasives
Typically this abrasive works well for soft metals and addressing surface issues with machine
parts where tolerances cannot be affected. The
life of this abrasive is limited and not well suited
for repetitively recycling.
Sand Type Abrasives
This abrasive is easy to find, and gives an average finish that is acceptable for most projects.
Sand has a good recycling life and is very economical.
Always disconnect power
and the air supply to the
machine before performing maintenance. Failure
to do this may result in
serious personal injury.
Depressurize the sandblaster, and check
the following items each time you use the
sandblaster and replace any parts immediately
if found to be worn:
• Look for excessively worn or cracked noz-
zles.
• Look for leaking thread fittings with soapy
water and a spray bottle.
• Look at the sand blasting hose for thin walls
and bubbling.
• Look for worn or leaking ball valves with
soapy water and a spray bottle.
