7. How to use the mixer
NOTE: When reading this chapter refer to the pictures of the control panels given in Chapter Functioning.
7.1 Operator Qualification
The machine should be operated only by trained, qualified and authorized personnel who have read and
understood the information contained in this manual.
7.2 Workstation
The Fig. Workstation shows the work area in which the operator can safely
use the machine. The machine control position is in front of the control
console from which the operator manages all the processing parameters.
7.3 Commissioning
Machine loading
Lift the guard and, according to the recipe, pour the ingredients into the
bowl without exceeding the maximum dough mixing capacity. The
ingredients can be put in in any order.
Controls adjustment
Set the working times for the first and second speeds of the relevant timing devices.
Operation
Turn the main switch on to energize the power board, lower the safety guard, select the bowl counterclockwise
rotation direction (see the arrow) for standard use of the machines and press the button Fig. Controls.
CAUTION
If the machine is stopped to carry out maintenance, there is a residual risk that when the protective grille is
opened the spiral will continue to turn by inertia. This risk is not present if the machine is working with a full
load. This is because when the grille is opened in this mode, the inertia of the spiral will be annulled by the
processed product (dough). Moreover, if the machine is carrying out a complete idle cycle, the spiral will take a
few seconds to stop completely because of the force of inertia. In this case the operator must take care when
entering the risk zone.
NOTE: Rotate the bowl clockwise (selector 2 Controls) for small quantities of dough.
