UNPACKING AND CLEANING 

 

Your new thicknesser is packaged in a cardboard box.  Unpack it carefully, taking care with the loose parts. Remove 
the protective coating from all non-painted parts. This can be removed by means of a soft cloth moistened with WD40. 
Do not use acetone, petroleum or paint thinner. 
 

Note : 

if any parts are damaged or missing, do not connect the machine to the power and do not switch it on until the 

missing/damaged parts are replaced. 
 
Do not throw away the cardboard box until you are sure the machine is working correctly.
