Transport instructions
The machine comes to you
in a cardboard box, and held in place with
foam and banded onto a pallet. If you have to transport the machine at
any time it is recommended that you use a similar box and packing
methods. Please let the machine cool down, and remove the swing head
handle.
2.2
Installing the machine
Take the machine out of the box,
due to the weight of the machine we
recommend that this be a 2-person task. Put the machine on a sturdy
worktable close to a suitable electric socket and compressed air supply
connection point within easy reach of the operator. There must be
sufficient space for the machine’s head to swing to the right until it hits
the built in stop and back to the pressing position without creating
trapping points against adjacent articles. Screw into place the head
swing aside handle, which comes taped to the machine for safety during
transport. (See
Page 14
for the position of the handle). Ensure that no
items vulnerable to heat radiation are too close to the machine.
2.3
Electrical requirements
The Beta Major
should be connected to the mains supply (nominally
230V AC) by the mains cable provided and a suitable plug. A qualified
person should carry out this work.
The press is designed
for 230V AC 50/60 hertz and requires exclusive
use of a power outlet rated for at least 13 Amps.
Ensure that the supply rating
on the machine specification plate
corresponds with your local supply and that the correct plug is fitted.
