The installation site must be properly illuminated to facilitate working with the machine. You
should avoid setting up the machine in places that are too dark or where bright or excessive
light is likely to disturb you.
Make sure that nothing can fall onto the machine or cause an obstruction over the ventilation
slits. This would cause overheating with consequent risks and danger for the operator and
would probably damage the machine itself.
For the particular type of operation the machine has to perform there must be low levels of dust
in the surrounding environment. The level should not exceed 0.03 g/cu.m (0.0012 oz/cu.m).
Ambient temperature must not exceed the following limits in the conditions given:
Temperature for normal operation:
Minimum 0°C. Max + 35°C. (Minimum 32°F. Max + 95°F)
Temperature for storage:
Minimum -15°C. Max + 65°C. (Minimum -6.8°F. Max +149°F)
Relative humidity:
Max 80% with ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F)
Relative humidity:
Max 50% with temp. from 20°C to 60°C (68°F to 140° F)
Altitude of site of installation:
Max 1,000 m (305 ft) a.s.l.
For installation above 1,000 m special electrical equipment has to be installed.
2.2 Electric power required
Install the terminal board for mains distribution close to the machine without having to use
running extension leads, which are strictly forbidden.
The power cable output coupling is located at the rear of the machine and has a section
diameter suitable for the installed power.
The maximum supply voltage variation permitted must be lower than 5% with respect to the
maximum rated value of 400V. See the electric diagram. Electrical connection of the machine to
the mains circuit must be carried only by a qualified (civil or industrial) installation technician
with specific experience or recognized specialist, respecting all current technical and safety
regulations of the country where the machine is used.
2.3 Conditions required for safety, protection of the operator and risk prevention
With regard to safety, apart from the conditions recommended by various authorities that
preside over this particular area of industrial interest and any regulations laid down by the
managerial department of the firm/ organization in which the machine is used, we should like to
draw the attention of safety controllers and operators to the following instructions and warnings:
Always wear suitable clothing when working with this machine.
While the machine is operating, never bring your hands close to any moving parts or other
mobile parts, whether totally or partially accessible, and do not introduce hand or fingers
through any slit or inlet or outlet opening in the machine.
Do not perform any operation which is not expressly indicated in the descriptions of the
operative cycles of the machine.
Always keep the work place and area surrounding the machine clean and free from any
inconvenient obstacles, using a rational approach to position the products to be processed,
finished products and tools or accessories.
Do not tamper with and do not alter the mechanisms or degree of effectiveness of safety
devices installed in the machine and, in particular, do not alter or tamper with the cover
attachments, micro switches or any other device or component in the electric circuit.
Any alteration, modification or tampering with components of the machine is in fact
fraudulent action and involves the assumption by the party that performs such action of all
civil and penal liability with regard to any possible damage to persons and/or things that may
derive from such action.
