INSTALLATION 
 
For the Installer: 
 

These Instructions contain important information designed to help the user 
obtain the maximum benefit from the investment in an IMC Chipper. 
Please read them carefully before starting work, and consult with the supplier in 
the event of any queries. 
Be sure to leave this Instruction Manual with the user after installation of the 
machine is complete. 
 

Procedure 

 
The unit is designed to stand on a bench, table, or on a draining board.  Ensure 
that whatever is used for this purpose is sturdy and rigid and not more than 750 
mm high. A higher table makes it difficult to load the machine. 
 
The Chipper should be placed where supplies of peeled potatoes from the 
peeling machine are readily accessible, after which the output of chips need to 
be in easy reach of the fryer. 
 
The IMC Chipper has a top loading hopper into which potatoes can be tipped 
from either side or from the front. It is not handed, and no consideration need be 
given to its loading direction. The discharge of chips is from the chute at the 
front of the machine, and the machine should be placed so that this chute is 
directly over the receiving container. 
 
 

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY CONNECTION 

 
A Wiring Diagram is shown on Page 7. 
 
Position the Chipper in the chosen site. The electricity supply connection should 
be made to a power outlet socket or isolator mounted on the wall close to the 
machine.  This socket or isolator must be accessible once the machine is 
installed.  Before connecting, check that the voltage shown on the rating is 
correct for the electricity supply you have available. The outlet should be fused 
at 13 amps.  
 

NOTE: The plug is fitted with a 10amp fuse. 

 

WARNING: This machine must be earthed 

 
Should the supply cord become damaged then an approved electrician must fit 
a replacement.  The IEE Codes of Practice must be observed. 
 
An equipotential bonding terminal is provided at the back of the unit near the 
cable outlet for external earth bonding.  Provision of an earth bond does not 
remove the requirement for an earth in the electrical supply.
