PLEASE READ THE WARNINGS BEFORE OPERATION
WARNINGS:
When connecting, changing, or repairing the Rustibus® angle de-scaler,
the power supply MUST ALWAYS be disconnected.
IMPORTANT:
1) Do not push down on your machine.
This only damages the tool, it does not improve results.
2) It is recommended to connect the Rustibus® 33
to a filtered air- lubricator and regulator system.
3) Lubricate the air motor several times per day by pouring a few drops
of airtool oil in the air inlet of the motor while turning the chain drum
manually 2-3 times. When the machine is due for storage, repeat the
same procedure.
• If the chain link system is damaged, some vibration may occur.
• Ear & face protection should be used for your own safety.
It is recommended to use safety screen
when operating the Rustibus® 33.
Wear protective gloves and sturdy shoes.
WORKING SAFELY WITH THIS MACHINE IS POSSIBLE ONLY WHEN THE OPERATING AND SAFETY
INFORMATION ARE READ COMPLETELY AND THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED THEREIN ARE STRICTLY
FOLLOWED. IN ADDITION, THE GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN THE ENCLOSED BOOKLET MUST
BE FOLLOWED. BEFORE USING THE FIRST TIME, TAKE A LOOK AT THE MACHINE FOR UNDERSTANDING
THE PRACTICAL WORKINGS OF IT.

INSTALLATION AND SETUP
RUSTIBUS® 33 AIR
Before you begin.
Step 1: VERIFY THE COMPLETENESS OF YOUR RUSTIBUS® 33.
• Check that all components are attached properly and in a proper / safe working order.
(Check that there are no loose guards or parts on the machine)
Step 2: ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT.
• Ensure that you have the required Air Pressure & volume. (625L/min (22 CFM) / 6 Bar (87 psi))
• Ensure that you have Air tool oil available to lubricate the machine.
• It is recommended that you connect the Rustibus® 33 to a filtered & lubricated air.
Step 3: BEFORE COMMENCING THE OPERATION.
• Locate the section to be cleaned / de-scaled and determine if the area needs to be cleaned. Excessive
grease, dirt and other hazardous material should be cleaned from the surface area before
operation of the Rustibus® machine.
• Ensure Chain Drum is properly connected to motor
Confirm the correct air pressure before connecting hose supply.
•
The Chain drum rotates at high RPM, show utmost care when connecting power lead and when
operating machine. ALWAYS THINK SAFETY FIRST!
• Connect your machine to its power source.
• Make sure the power lead is properly connected and safely located for your operation.
• Start and Stop the machine and check that rotation is correct according to marking on machine.
Step 4: OPERATION OF RUSTIBUS MACHINE.
• For the best results from your Rustibus® machine you should run the machine forward and backward
over the area until the appropriate result is achieved
• Do not run the machine over sharp edges, but along them. Your machine will last longer if operated
with care.
• DO NOT FORCE YOUR MACHINE DOWNWARDS! This does not improve the result, it only damages the
machine.
• To maintain your Rustibus® 33 in a good working order, the air-motor should be lubricated 3-4 times a
day during operation
Step 5: MAINTENANCE OF RUSTIBUS MACHINE.
• ALWAYS stop the machine and disconnect it from its power source before carrying out any maintenance
on the machine.
• To maintain your Rustibus® 33 in a good working order the machine and motor should be
cleaned after use. The ventilation slots of the motor must be kept clear at all times. When the machine is
due for storage, please clean and check the machine for damage or wear and tear.

AIR QUALITY, LUBRICTION AND FILTRATION
THE RUSTIBUS TOOL/MACHINE CAN OPERATE IRRISPECTIVE OF CLIMATIC CONDITIONS. PROVIDED THE AIR SUPPLIED TO OPERATE THE TOOL/MACHINE IS OF A SUITABLE QUALITY TO DO SO.
Ensure that your machine is always run with air that is properly filtered for moisture and particles and to
a quality that is suitable for use with pneumatic motors of its type. The motor of your machine must be
kept lubricated.
For non-incorporated air filtration systems, ensure the machine is connected to a system comprising the
following points:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Air /moisture filter/separation unit
Air pressure regulation unit
Air lubrication unit
Shut off valve.
Use of the correct hose dimension.
Regular check and refilling of air tool oil for correct lubrication.
Correctly dimensioned connections, and safety features.
WHEN STORING YOUR MACHINE, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT ENOUGH LUBRICATION IS PRESENT/ADDED TO ENSURE THAT NO CORROSION OF AIR MOTOR CAN OCCUR BETWEEN OPERATIONS

OPERATING THE RUSTIBUS 33
The Rustibus® 33 is air driven and requires
625 Liters (22 CFM) of air per minute at a
pressure of 6 Bar (87 psi). It is easy to operate
and leaves the surface clean to
St3 +++ (SP11 +++).
The machine is adjusted to a proper RPM
when it leaves the Rustibus® factory.
x
The Rustibus® 33 uses a Disposable Chain Drum. This Chain Drum is designed for
one-time-use only and does not require any spares replacement. Simply use the Chain Drum until it is completely destroyed and then replace it with a new one.
This makes the Rustibus® 33 fast and efficient!
x
In the de-scaling process it is quite normal that chain links are lost. Should this create an
unbalance in the rotation, simply remove the
chain or rivet on the opposite side of the
broken one to restore the balance.
RECOGNIZE A 033 (033-3156) CHAIN DRUM.
The Rustibus® 33 Chain Drum (033-3156) is the main spare component for your Rustibus® 33 machine.
The chain drum is a disposable spare; intended for use until it is entirely worn out and then disposed of in a
responsible manner. IT MUST BE NOTED, that the Rustibus® 33 chain drum has a BLACK PLUG fitted into
one side of its spindle. This plug ensures that you cannot mount the chain drum incorrectly. Should the BLACK
PLUG be missing for any reason it should be noted that for the Rustibus® 33 the correct direction to mount
the chain drum is with the longer length of the spindle OUT towards the SCREEN; otherwise the screen of your
machine can be severely damaged by the rotation of the chain drum.

REPLACING THE CHAIN DRUM
To replace the Chain Drum on the machine,
open the protective cover by unlocking the
locking nut on the side.
To remove the Drum from the shaft, block the gearbox by placing the 19mm spanner on the motor shaft. Leave the spanner resting on the screen. Use both hands to turn the Drum anti clockwise release it from the shaft.
Install a new Chain Drum (033-3156) by
reversing these procedures. Make sure to refit the protective cover afterwards before
restarting the Rustibus® 33.
When replacing the Chain Drum or Wire Brush it is important that it is replaced with the
correct side outwards. This is clearly marked on the Chain Drum, in that it can only be attached
from one side because of the BLACK PLUG.
Always disconnect the air supply before dismantling the Rustibus® machine.
WARNING
When connecting, changing, or repairing the Rustibus® angle de-scaler, the air supply
must always be disconnected.

SOLUTIONS
1)Check that there are no restrictions on
the hose.
2) Check the PSI meter on the Air Lubriction
System for adequate pressure.
3) Check air supply.
4)
Disconnect air power supply from
machine / tool, remove the screen and
chain Drum unit from Machine / tool and
check if main drive shaft rotates freely.
5) Too much dust may have accumulated in
the tool. Clean the tool.
6) Check the bearings to make sure they are
spinning freely in their track.
Air motor failure (handle part) such as
main gear not engaging. Contact
supplier for service.
7) Lubricate the machine and rotate the
chain head or drive shaft in both
directions a few times.
1)Disconnect machine from air power
supply and check that exhaust is not
restricted.
2) Check air supply is not restricted and
that it is adequate.
1) Disconnect the air supply from the
machine / tool.
2) Check oil in the lubricator oil system.
3) Check that there are no restrictions on
the hose.
4) Check that bearings are spinning freely.
1) Check that air supply is free of
restrictions and that it has the adequate
PSI.
2) Disconnect the air supply and check if
the chain drum is worn and replace if
necessary.
During the de-scaling process, it is quite
normal to loose Chain Links. This causes
vibration because the Chain Drum is unbalanced. Remove the opposite Chain Link or
Pin of the broken one to restore balance
and to continue using the Chain Drum until
it is totally destroyed.
Always try to use the Rustibus® in a strait
angle towards the surface. Avoid using
the unit sideways or in an excessive angle
towards the surface.
