3.0 UNCRATING & SETUP
After inspecting the shipment for external damage, immediately
unpack the Gilsonic AutoSiever and inspect for concealed
shipping damage. Report damage immediately to the shipping
company. Retain all shipping records and packing materials
until proper operation is confirmed.
Place the GilSonic AutoSiever on a stable, level surface at a
convenient working height.
To access the Sieving Chamber (see Figure 3.0), lift the sliding
door and lock the Sieve Stack Assembly (see Figure 5.1) by pulling
down on the Sieve Stack Locking Bars until they snap onto the
top ring of the Fines Collector Holder. Pull the Assembly out to
remove it from the AutoSiever. The Diaphragm and Fines Col-
lector are part of the Sieve Stack Assembly, but are packaged
separately for shipping.
On the back of the AutoSiever, find the Voltage Selector and
insure it is set to match the voltage of your power supply as
shown in Figure 3.1. The 110V and 220V settings will work with
either 50Hz or 60Hz electrical supplies. Connect the supplied
3-wire grounded power cord to the back of the AutoSiever and
plug into a grounded electrical outlet.
