with all the controls and the safety regulations of this manual!

Machine application

Information
Collecting of dry dust produced by CONTEC / TYROLIT Surface Preparation Machines.
The use of the machine outside is only possible in dry weather.

Operation and dust collecting

Connect the dust collector via the dust hose to the application, for example shotblaster,
floor grinder or floor planer. Make sure that the dust hose is in good condition and without
any tears or other defects. Little holes can dramatically reduce the performance of the dust
collector.
Check the electric cables.
Connect the extension lead to the mains and to the socket on the power unit (4). You need
a 32 A, 400 V, 3 phase power supply. If no other machine will be connected to the plug of
the power unit (41), a 16 A supply is sufficient. The US version is equipped with a separa-
te connection box. Here you have to connect the extension lead to the 63 A, 460 V, 3 pha-
se socket on the box (191). It is possible to make one unit out of the power and filter unit.
On one side of the filter unit are two clamps (111 or 119) in rectangular pipes. Pull them out
and turn them 90°. Slide the end of the clamps inside two holes on the side of the power
unit. Now the two units are one machine which can be moved as one on site.
Connect the 150 mm (diameter) hose from the power unit to the filter unit. Connect the air
pressure hose (63, 61, 59) and the electric connection (51, 53, 55, 57) of the power unit to
the filter unit.
Press the „START" button (159) on the control panel. If the indicator light on it's right side
doesn't stay on when you release your finger, then the motor wants to start in the wrong
direction. In this case disconnect the plug on the power unit. The plug is a. reverse plug
which means that two phases can be swopped by inserting a screw driver in between the
pins and twisting them round to the opposite direction. This allows the motor to run in the
correct direction. When there is no pressure in the air tank, the compressor starts to work.
To change the rotation at the US version you have to change the position of the reverse
switch (189) on the connection box.
Turn the star-delta switch (161) in the „star" position. The motor begins to turn. Wait appro-
ximately 10 seconds before you turn the switch into the „delta" position. It is important to
wait long enough before you switch over from the "star" to the "delta" position. Wait until
the motor is not increasing the speed any more before you switch over. You can now start
to work. The dust bin (96) of the machine to be emptied during operation. How often de-
pends on the amount of dust produced during the application.
Only dry dust or dry material can be removed by the dust collector. Wet or greasy dust
blocks or in the worst case destroys the filter cartridges.

Variations of the dust collection

Basically there are two methods of collecting the dust. The first one simply fills the dust
container (96) with dust which an then be emptied. The second method fills an endless
bag (Longopack). When the bag is full it can be sealed with a string and then disposed of
into a container. Method one reduces waste in the form of plastic bags, method two redu-
ces the possibility of problematic dust escaping into the air

Operation with the container version

The dust container (96) is located underneath the filter cartridges. During operation the
dust container will fill up. For emptying the container switch the dust collector «Off». The-
