These instructions cover the installation, operation and maintenance of the PanBlast Aurora LED Blasting Light Assemblies 2.2 Application. The PanBlast Aurora LED Blasting Lights are designed to provide advanced and targeted lighting for abrasive blasting applications. NOTE: UNDER OSHA 1915:34(c)(1)(iv) DEAD MAN CONTROL. A DEADMAN CONTROL DEVICE SHALL BE PROVIDED AT THE NOZZLE END OF THE BLAST HOSE EITHER TO PROVIDE DIRECT CUTOFF OR TO SIGNAL THE POT TENDER BY MEANS OF A VISUAL AND AUDIBLE SIGNAL TO CUT OFF THE FLOW, IN THE EVENT THE BLASTER LOSES CONTROL OF THE HOSE. THE POT TENDER SHALL BE AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES TO RESPOND IMMEDIATELY TO THE SIGNAL. 3.0 INSTALLATION! WARNING! THE SYSTEM MUST BE IN SHUT DOWN MODE AND THE COMPRESSED AIR AND ELECTRIC SOURCE DISCONNECTED TO THE ABRASIVE BLASTING EQUIPMENT BEFORE PERFORMING ANY INSTALLATION WORK. FAILIURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN PREMATURE ACTIVATION OF THE SYSTEM THAT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. 3.1 The PanBlast Aurora Blast Light is an LED style lamp, which is powered by either a 3.7Volt rechargeable lithium Ion battery, or a 12V battery/power supply, depending on which model is being utilized. 3.2 The Aurora LED style lamp is generally maintenance free, generates no heat and provides much higher levels of illumination compared to other conventional style lamps

4 3.3 The LED lamp itself is protected from the abrasive blasting action by a replaceable glass lens (BAC-BA-PB-0059). 3.4 Preparation for operation of the 12V hose mounted Aurora LED Light Assembly: codes BAC-BA-0130 & BAC-BA-PB Check that the protective glass lens (BAC-BA-PB- 0059) is held firmly in place by the lens retaining ring (YAC-BA-PB-0086) by ensuring it is screwed hand tight onto the front of the Aurora LED Light Assembly Ensure that all connecting cables and cable connectors are in good condition, and that there are no exposed wires or damaged / worn terminals. 3.7 Using cable ties, heavy cloth tape or similar, attach the Aurora Hose Mounting Assembly (YAC-BA-PB-0128) in the up right position, to the blast hose, in a location directly adjacent to the blast nozzle holder. Ensure that the light mounting face of the bracket is facing towards the blast nozzle end of the blast hose assembly. It is recommended that the remote control handle be positioned directly behind the Aurora LED Light Assembly. for optimum results. 3.8 Attach the light assembly (BAC-BA-PB-0113) to the hose mounting assembly by sliding the light onto the mounting face on the front of the bracket. 3.9 Uncoil the extension cable assembly (either BAC-BA-PB-0105 or BAC-BA-PB-0097) and lay it out along the length of the blast hose Connect the blast light cable connector to the connector on the end of the extension cable by pushing the two connectors together, and then rotate the retaining nut to lock the cable connectors in position Using cable ties or heavy cloth tape, attach the extension cable to the blast hose at approximately 500mm (20 ) intervals, commence the attachment directly behind the extension cable connector Using the same method as 3.10 now connect the alligator clip extension (BAC-BA-PB-0112) to the opposite end of the extension cable Carefully now connect the red alligator clip to the positive (+) and then connect the black alligator clip to the negative (-) side of a12volt power supply.! WARNING! NEVER CROSS CONNECT THE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CONNECTIONS, AS DAMAGE TO THE AURORA LED LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND/OR POWER SUPPLY MAY OCCUR. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE POWER SUPPLY NOT BE CONNECTED TO THE AURORA LED LIGHT ASSEMBLY UNTIL IT IS READY FOR IMMEDIATE OPERATION The blast light is now ready for operation Preparation for operation of the 3.7 Volt rechargeable Aurora LED Helmet Mounted Assembly: code BAC-BA Connect the alternate battery charger unit either (BAC-BA-PB-0115) or (BAC-BA for Australia) to a suitable 100 to 250Volt power supply, and attach the (BAC-BA-PB-0109) Aurora 3.7v LED lamp battery pack kit to the battery charger by pushing the cable connectors together, and locking them in position by rotating the connector locking nut The recommended minimum charge time for initial operation is twelve (12) hours Once fully charged, disconnect the battery pack kit from the battery charger Ensure that the blast helmet outer surface is free from all dust, dirt, oil etc.. If necessary, carefully clean and dry the blast helmet outer shell using a mild detergent Carefully remove the backing tape from one side of the Aurora LED Blast Helmet Fastener Kit (BAC-BA ), and carefully attach it to the top center section of the outer blast helmet shell in a direction from the front viewing lens towards the rear air inlet fitting Remove the side of the backing tape of the fastener kit. Mount the helmet light mounting kit to the helmet by firmly pressing the base (item 4) onto the fastener on the blast helmet, ensuring that the light holder is facing towards the front of the blast helmet Carefully attach the Aurora LED Light Assembly to the mounting bracket by sliding the Aurora LED Light Assembly. onto the mounting face Attach the battery pouch BAC-BA-PB-0090 to the operator s blast helmet alternate controller waist belt, and attach the belt around the operator s waist in the normal manner Insert the battery pack into the battery pouch, and connect the battery pack to the Aurora LED Light Assembly by pushing the cable connectors together, and locking them in position by rotating the connector-locking nut The Aurora LED Blast Light is now ready for operation. 4.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 4.1 Ensure that the Aurora LED Blast Light Assembly has been setup and checked as detailed in section 3.0 of this manual. 4.2 Operation of all Aurora LED Blast Light models is by simply rotating the control knob located on the right hand side of the light assembly in the clockwise direction. This will illuminate the LED within the light assembly. To turn the light off, simply rotate the control knob in an anticlockwise direction. 4.3 While using the Aurora LED Light, care should be taken to prevent damage to the light as much as possible in order to maximize its operating life. 4.4 Under normal operating conditions, a single battery charge should provide a lighting operational time of approximately twenty (20) hours

5 4.5 The Aurora LED Light should always be positioned and/or adjusted in a manner to direct the LED light b e a m directly onto the area being abrasive blasted. Note: The Aurora Blast Lights are not a substitute for ambient lighting. Panblast recommends that separate adequate ambient lighting should be used in all abrasive blasting applications within confined or dark spaces/areas to ensure a safe working environment. 5.0 MAINTENANCE 6.0 TECHNICAL DATA Stock Code BAC-BA BAC-BA-PB-0082 Rated Voltage 3.7Volt 12Volt Nominal Capacity 6Ah Lighting Time >20H 3.7Volt 12Volt LED Light Source 0.7/0.7A(Double Filament)! WARNING! THE SYSTEM MUST BE IN SHUT DOWN MODE AND THE COMPRESSED AIR AND ELECTRICAL SOURCE DISCONNECTED BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE WORK. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN PREMATURE ACTIVATION OF THE SYSTEM THAT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. 5.1 The solid state, LED design of the Aurora Blast Lights ensures that they are basically maintenance free and under normal circumstances, require only the replaceable glass protection lens to be replaced as required. 5.2 During normal abrasive blasting operations, the blast light lens (BAC-BA-PB-0059) will become frosted by the rebounding abrasive media generated by the abrasive blasting action. Over a period of time this may cause the level of illumination to be reduced. 5.3 To replace the protection lens, simply unscrew the blast light glass holder (YAC-BA-PB-0086) and remove the old lens. Insert a new protection lens in place, and screw the blast light glass holder back into position. Replacement lenses are available in packets of 5 lenses, stock code BAC -BA-PB On a regular basis, check the condition of all cables and cable connectors. Check for any signs of deterioration or wear or exposed wiring. Replace as necessary. 5.5 The Aurora LED Blast Light Assembly and all components including the battery charger must be kept dry and away from moisture at all times. 5.6 Clean as required using only a clean dry cloth or brush.
