7) Before operating the machine, it is essential to read the instructions contained in the
Use and Maintenance Booklet.
In particular, ensure that you have fully under-
stood the operation of the machine.
8) The machine was designed and constructed to treat water and sewage, but not chemical
products. Treating the latter substances may cause permanent damage.
9) Check that the length of the machine is appropriate to the depth of the tank.
10) As regards machines with oil bath transmission, the transmission pipe and the gear
units, if present, should be filled with oil.
11) During assembly, ensure that the rubber parts of the machine do not come into contact
with oil, grease or oil derivatives
.
add synthetic oil for reducers that are resistant to
high temperatures (AFI REVERSE GEAR UNIT
ONLY);
wait at least 3 hours (FOR TRANSMISSION
PIPES ONLY) before checking the oil level by
way of the specific cap;
close the caps.
Check the level cap periodically: the oil must nev-
er fall below the level
.
The machines are supplied without lubricating oil both in the transmission pipes and the
gear units. Before starting the machine, ensured they are filled correctly:
unscrew the caps: fill and vent;
add SAE 90 oil
very slowly
