Empty Sandblast media seperator

"Empty the Media Seperator Drawer

Behind the Plasma table is a square gray machine that is the media separator for the sand blaster.

There is a drawer on the bottom with two retaining latches.

  1. Put on a dust mask and safety glasses
  2.  Ensure the sandblaster is off
  3.  Pull and release the red lever on the right side of the filter a few times to knock loose fine particles from the filter.
  4. Check the vent ducting from the booth to the separator, ensure it's not filled with media.
  5. Empty the bottom drawer into the dumpster
  6. Use the Powder coating shopvac  vacuum out the inside around the filter tubes and drawer box.
