DO NOT refill the unit or attempt any maintenance whilst the cylinder is pressurised.
2. INTRODUCTION
Pressurised tank for maximum power. Supplied with 1.5mtr hose & ceramic nozzle with shut off valve. Also includes bayonet air line coupling and
airflow regulator. Soda blasting is especially suitable in the classic car and motorcycle markets as soda will not etch glass and will not warp or
remove metalwork. Surface will be left smooth. Soda also leaves a rust inhibitor behind for up to six weeks. Suitable for use with Sealey Blasting
Soda Model No. SBG25KG.

4. ASSEMBLY
4.1. Assemble the soda blaster as in g.1. Apply PTFE tape to all air connections before tightening.
4.2. Connect the valve block (g.1.1) to the cylinder by means of the cylinder nut (g.1.2).
4.3. Screw in the safety valve (g.1.3), delivery valve (g.1.4) and push t connector (g.1.10).
4.4. Connect the regulator bracket (fig.1.5) to the cylinder by means of the hex. headed bolts provided. Place the neck of the regulator
(fig.1.15) through the bracket and secure with the regulator nut (fig.1.6). Screw in the pressure gauge (fig.1.7), push fit connector (fig.1.10)
and inlet valve. The inlet connector (fig.1.9) screws into the inlet valve.
4.5. Connect the regulator to the valve block using the air inlet tube (fig.1.11). Connect the delivery tube (fig.1.12) to the delivery valve.
NOTE: The delivery valve may be tted to outer end of the delivery tube, against the nozzle, if preffered.
4.6. To assemble the wheels on the PSB40, pass the axle through the axle supports, place a washer, wheel, washer and ‘R’ clip in that order on
either side
4.7. Check that all the air connections are tight and free from leaks
4.8. Ensure that the compressor employed has an adequate output to power the soda blaster, and that the piping is of a sufficient diameter to
allow free air flow. DO NOT use a lubricator in the air supply system.

5.1.
WARNING: Ensure that the cylinder is not pressurised before removing the
filler cap (fig.1.14).
5.1.1. To fill with blasting medium; unscrew the filler cap and pour the medium into
the cylinder via a funnel. Take care not to over-fill.Replace and tighten the
filler cap. DO NOT use any other medium than blasting soda in this
unit.
5.2. Close the inlet valve (fig.1.8), delivery valve (fig.1.4) and delivery
regulator (fig.1.13). Screw down the regulator cap.
5.2.1. Connect to the compressed air supply, ensuring that the supply pressure
does not exceed 100psi.
5.2.2. Open the inlet valve and then increase the cylinder pressure by turning the
regulator cap in an anti-clockwise direction (the regulator can be locked by
pressing the cap down). The cylinder pressure is shown on the pressure
gauge (fig.1.7).
5.2.3. Open the delivery valve fully.
5.2.4. Open the delivery regulator slowly until the desired
blasting medium flow is achieved. DO NOT try to regulate the
flow by means of the delivery valve.
5.2.5. If the flow of blasting medium is not sufficient, increase the
cylinder pressure gradually by means of the main regulator until
a satisfactory flow is achieved.
5.2.6. Check the pressure gauge to ensure that the pressure parameters are not
exceeded.
5.2.7. Before filling the cylinder, turn the inlet valve off and vent the
pressure from the cylinder by opening the delivery valve
and delivery regulator. The pressure gauge displays the
current tank pressure.
6.1. The blasting medium must be used dry; any moisture is
likely to cause intermittent operation or blockage.
6.2. When not in use, de-pressurise, close the inlet valve and
delivery valve and store in a warm, dry location. Keep away
from children.
6.3. Clean with a moist soapy cloth. DO NOT use abrasive or solvent cleaners.
