OPERATIONS
General
The Model M1114 will perform many types of operations
that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of these
operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed
incorrectly.
The instructions in this section are written with the
understanding that the operator has the necessary
knowledge and skills to operate this machine. If at any
time you are experiencing difficulties performing any
operation, stop using the machine!
If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recommend that you read books, trade articles, or seek training from a person with quality sandblasting experience
before performing any unfamiliar operations. Above all,
your safety comes first!
M1114 Benchtop Sandblaster
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.
Sandblasting
The Model M1114 Sandblaster is equipped with an industrial-duty blast gun with ceramic tip, siphon hose, work
light, large viewing window, and sealed rubber gloves.
The hopper recycles and stores the sandblasting media for
reuse or easy removal.
To use the sandblaster, do these steps:
1. Wear safety goggles and a NIOSH approved respira-
tor at all times when operating or maintaining your
sandblaster!
2. Plug in the transformer and turn the light ON.
3. Install the correct nozzle and air jet into the gun for
the abrasive type you will use. Refer to Page 9 for
options.
4. Carefully, without causing a hazardous dust cloud,
pour or spade-in ten pounds of abrasive into the
sandblaster. DO NOT over-fill or sandblasting may be
sluggish and cloudy inside of the cabinet.
5. Insert the workpiece, and close and lock the loading
wind ow.
READ and understand this entire instruction manual before using this sandblaster. Serious personal injury may occur if
safety and operational information is not
understood and followed. DO NOT risk
your safety by not reading!
MAKE your shop “child
safe.” Ensure that your
workplace is inaccessible
to youngsters by closing
and locking all entrances when you are away.
NEVER allow untrained
visitors in your shop
when assembling, adjusting or operating equipment.
Page 10
M1114 Benchtop Sandblaster
6. Adjust the air supply regulator to an air pressure
between 60-100 PSI, and begin sandblasting 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 (Figure 4).
Note: Keep the sandblasting abrasives moisture-free;
otherwise, the blast gun tip will frequently clog.
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 our
connected to air pressure. ALWAYS
disconnect the blast cabinet from
power and air pressure when not in
use, or during maintneance or adjustments. Ignoring this warning mauy lead
to severe injury.
Jet/Nozzle Combinations
Refer to the table in Figure 4 for suggested air jet and
nozzle combination for an approximate abrasive flow; for
replacement part numbers of a highly used blasting tip,
refer to the list in Figure 5. Refer to magazines, trade
articles, professionals, and the abrasive manufacturer for
the best combination that is required for your particular
abrasive use.
Sandblasting Media
Below is a list 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.
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.
-9-
Figure 5. Replacement nozzles.
Page 11
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.
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
NEVER use gasoline or other petroleumbased solvents to clean with. Most
have low flash points, which make
them extremely flammable. A risk of
explosion and burning exists if these
products are used. Serious personal
injury may occur if this warning is
ignored!
Cabinet Cleaning
When cleaning this sandblasting cabinet, DO NOT use
chlorine-based solvents such as brake parts cleaner or
acetone—if you happen to splash some onto a painted
surface or the plastic window, the paint will lift and the
window will cloud. DO NOT use a rag to wipe the dust
from the window, or the abrasives will scratch it, use a
soft, dry paint brush.
To clean, the sandblasting cabinet, do these steps:
1. Put on safety goggles and your approved NIOSH respi-
rator.
2. Disconnect the power and air supply.
3. Vacuum the exterior of the sandblasting cabinet and
the window.
4.Use a soft, dry paint brush to brush the dust from
both sides of the plastic window.
