Once you have positioned the machine, remove the blanks from the oil tank filling cap. Wait for 20 minutes, and
check the oil level using the dip stick attached to filling cap.
The machine should only be connected to a safe electrical circuit, in accordance with the latest European guide-
lines.
Electrically connect the motor making sure it rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow located on the casing.
Check this rotation by quickly switching the main switch on and using the emergency stop.
Important: faulty motor rotation can damage the pump. To change the direction of motor rotation, reverse the two
phase wires to the mains plug. The machine has been preconnected to run on a 380 V 3-phase mains supply. To
connect to a 220 V 3-phase or 1-phase mains supply, please consult us.
Install the gauge setting mechanism on the crimp head face flange. Do this with the machine disconnected
from the mains supply. For correct installation, display 000 on the counter dial by turning the counter knob
counterclockwise. Attach the
micrometer gauge assembly
using the two screws with springs supplied,
ensuring
the counter is the correct way up.
Connect the
electrically operated micrometer gauge assembly
plug to the socket behind the front panel.
Unpacking and/or installation which do not conform to these procedures
will render the warranty void.
