2、n the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers requirements for pneumaticrotary descaling machines for
3、 removal of paint, rust, scale,nonskid deck covering, and other coatings from steel andaluminum structures. These portable machines are intended foruse in a marine environment, subject to salt air and sprayduring use and high humidity during storage.1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound units o
4、r SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each systemshall be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in nonconformance with thespecification.1.3 The following precautionary stat
5、ement pertains to thetest method portion only, Section 12, of this specification: Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the userof this standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determin

Mechanical Properties6.1 The machines shall be powered by an air motor andshall accept each of the rotary hubs (see 6.9).6.1.1 Type 1The Type 1 machine shall be a hand-held unithaving a minimum of
19、 two handles, one of which shall housethe trigger mechanism. The trigger mechanism shall be of thespring-loaded “dead man” type and shall immediately shut offair flow to the motor when released. The arrangement of thehandles and trigger mechanism shall permit right- or left-handed operation with equ
20、al ease. The direction of rotation ofthe hubs shall tend to propel the machine in the forwarddirection, away from the operator. The Type 1 machine shallremove coatings to within14 in. 6 mm of bulkheads,coamings, decks, and other immovable objects.6.1.2 Type 2The Type 2 machine shall be a deck sup-po
21、rted unit with a T-shaped operating handle. The operatinghandle shall be adjustable for height, rigid and strong enoughto operate the machine without bending, and long enough toallow any operator with the percentile body dimensions speci-fied herein (see 6.2) to operate the machine while walkingbehi
22、nd it in a natural walking position. The air hose connectionand trigger mechanism shall be located on the T-handle. Thetrigger mechanism shall be of the spring-loaded “dead man”type and shall immediately shut off air flow to the motor whenreleased. The handle shall detach or be adjustable to andlock
23、able in the vertical position for storage. The machine shallbe provided with at least two wheels used to move themachine. With the handle, air hose and each of the abrasivehubs attached, the machine shall sit level on the deck with theabrasive hubs in contact with the deck and not interfere withdeck
24、 coating removal process. The machine shall easily propelitself or be propelled by the operator across the deck withoutoverstressing the operator (see 6.2). The Type 2 machine shallremove deck coating to within 112 in. 40 mm of thebulkheads, coamings, and other immovable objects.6.2 Human Engineerin
25、gThe machines shall be in accor-dance with the human engineering criteria of Practice F 1166except where such requirements conflict with the requirementsof this specification. The machines shall incorporate themaintainability requirements of Practice F 1166 and shallpermit safe and efficient perform
26、ance of operation and main-tenance by the fifth percentile female to the ninety-fifthpercentile male, as defined in Practice F 1166. Clearance shallbe provided around each component, part or control so that anindividual with aforementioned percentile body dimensionsand physical capabilities can safe
27、ly operate, maintain, remove,or replace any item using normally available tools and testequipment. The controls required for operation and mainte-nance shall be in accordance with Practice F 1166 and shall notrequire operator forces to exceed the strength limitations listedtherein.6.3 Interchangeabi
28、lityComponent parts and assembliespeculiar to each type and class of machine from any onemanufacturer shall be fully interchangeable. Such interchange-ability shall not require any alterations or modifications.6.4 Dimensions and WeightThe machines, fully as-sembled with guards; debris collector atta

31、hips or scale removed by the machine. These guards shallnot interfere with the performance of the machine throughoutthe machines useful life, unduly decrease any of the hubsphysical dimensions or wear, or interfere with changing of thehubs. The guards/rotary hub containment shall be constructedto ac
32、commodate a debris collection system.6.7 Air ConnectionsAir connections for both Type 1 andType 2 machines shall be of the quick disconnect type. Thelocations of the air connection shall be such that the hose doesnot interfere with operation of the machine or the operator. Theinside diameter of the
33、connections shall be in accordance withTable 3.6.8 LubricationLubrication fittings shall be installed sothat lubrication can be accomplished without disassembly ofthe machine (see 6.2). Lubrication materials shall be high-temperature lubricating oil or high-performance grease.6.9 Hubs:6.9.1 Hubs for
