Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild

Ya know for your blasting purposes, 100 - 125 psi should be more than adequate,I would worry more about cfm per min.

I operate my blast cabinet @60psi, and the more air I build up in the tank, the longer the blaster can operate before the compressor kicks on.

But, I have found that, as the tank pressure nears 150psi, the motor begins to labor and the starter kicks in/out struggling to keep things going.

Looks like 125# will have to do.

Though it still needs some refinements, it is really great to have a blast cabinet!

Ron,

If you ever posted pictures (Of the blast cabinet set-up) I missed them. Did you get the dust deputy knock-off? How does that work? Don't you find 60 psi a little low for quick cleaning? Mine works best from max pressure (150 psi) down to around 100 psi.

What sort of media are you using?
