2.1 DUST COLLECTOR and WORKSTATION REQUIREMENTS
A dust collector and an enclosed workstation are highly recommended. Because
of the wide variety of applications and installations of the SWAM-BLASTER, consult
CRYSTAL MARK, INC. for your particular dust collection requirements.
2.2 INSTALLATION AND UNIT CHECKOUT
Install and check operation of the unit as follows referring to Section 3.2:
A. Plug Footswitch Connector into Footswitch Socket on rear panel.
B. Attach Blow-Off Hose to dust collection system (i.e. workstation, dust collector
or connecting duct).
C. Connect end of Air Supply Hose to external air supply.
D. Set Power Switch to “OFF” and Powder Flow Knob completely
counterclockwise.
E. Plug female end of Power Cord into Power Connector. Plug male end of Power
Cord into electrical outlet.
F. Turn Power Switch “ON”. Green Pilot Light should illuminate.
NOTE: If the light does not illuminate, it indicates absence of electrical power. Check the
fuses. If ok, check the input power source and connections.
G. Check Air Pressure Gauge reading. Set Air Pressure Regulator as follows:
1) Pull knob out and rotate to desired air pressure. To obtain accurate reading,
cycle Footswitch on and off while adjusting air pressure.
2) When air pressure is set, push knob in.
H. Actuate Footswitch or Flow Test Switch. Air should flow through nozzle.
CAUTION!! Some residual powder may be in the unit from factory testing. Therefore,
do not direct the nozzle towards any part of the body when operating the
footswitch.
I. Set Power Switch OFF to depressurize unit.
CAUTION!! When the Air Pressure Gauge reads 0, allow an additional 20 seconds of
depressurization time before removing the chamber top or performing other
service.
J. Install nozzle on end of handpiece.
K. Select desired powder and fill Auxiliary Powder Chamber. See Section 2.6
L. Turn Power Switch ON and Powder Flow Knob to desired powder flow setting.
M. Nominal setting for most operations are in 90-volt range of voltmeter.
