5.1. Transport and positioning
When transporting and positioning the machine, it is recommended to handle it with great care!
Neither overturn nor tilt the machine! Oil might come out of the pump and damage the machine.
Cut the strap with scissors make sure you protect your eyes by wearing glasses and withdraw the cardboard. Cut the
strap fastening the machine to the pallet.
5.2. Environmental conditions
Lift the machine and place it on the working surface. Make sure the machine is placed in a proper environment
without any inflammable and explosive materials or gas.
The machine may only be installed on smooth, flat non-
inflammable surfaces.
Leave a minimal space of 0,5m around the machine so that not to obstruct air outlets.
Working environmental conditions:
Temperature from + 5°C to + 40°C.
Relative humidity from 30% to 90%, without condensation.
The lighting of the operation room shall comply with the laws in force in the country where the machine is installed.
However, it shall be uniform and provide for good visibility in order to safeguard the operator’s safety and health.
MACHINE SAFETY FACTOR = IP20
THE AERIAL NOISE MADE BY THE MACHINE IS LOWER THAN 70 dB(A)

5.3.1. Electrical connections
Voltage (V): see data on plate
Frequency (Hz): see data on plate
Maximum absorbed power (W): see data on plate
Maximum absorbed current (A): see data on plate
N.B.: When contacting the Manufacturer, always indicate the model and the serial number
specified on the plate on the rear part of the machine.
OBSERVE HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS!
If the machine is not equipped with the power supply plug, use a plug that is suitable for the
voltage and amperage values described by the rating plate and that can comply with the rules in
force in the installation country.
GROUNDING OF THE UNIT IS OBLIGATORY!
Before executing electrical connections, make sure the mains voltage matches the one on the
plate on machine rear and that the ground contact complies with the safety rules in force. In
case of doubts about the mains voltage, contact the local public supply Company.
Insert the plug on the cable from machine electrical cabinet in a mains power supply socket that
can be reached easily by the operator.
5.3.2. Gas connections
When carrying out packaging operations in modified atmospheres, use specific gas for food package in
compliance with the rules in force about food additives in the country where the machine is used.
The gas, which consists of a mixture of nitrogen, carbon dioxide and, more rarely, oxygen and other gases, is a
“made to measure” gaseous mixture, depending on the product to be packaged.
Never use gaseous mixtures in presence of oxygen in a percentage higher than the atmospheric
one (~ 19%).
Connect gas attachment, in case the machine is equipped with such a device, to the gas cylinder through the proper
tube (H) (see chapter 1.3.).
Pressure of gas plant has to be set on about 2 atm., bearing in mind the max. working pressure is 4 atm.
If the pressure is not correct, act on the knob of the pressure reducer (R) (see chapter 1.3.).
