Measures to be taken if there is a risk of frost
After cleaning the machine, interrupt the water supply and
open the needle valve (1) completely in anticlockwise direction.
Open the outlet tap (2) on the water manifold.
The best way to protect the machine from frost damage is to blow out the
water that is still in the water manifold with a compressor.
Procedure:
Connect the air hose from the compressor to the water inlet (3).
Connect the water manifold to the water inlet on the mixing tube (4).
Switch on the compressor.
Press the water flow button (5).
The water is now blown out of the manifold and hoses with compressed air!
(at 1.5 bar for approx. 1 minute). The machine is now completely empty
with the exception of a small residue in the screw pump. The machine must
still be started carefully the next day however.
Transport
Disconnect the main power supply cable (1), then all other cable connections.
Disconnect all cables and hoses from the machine.
WARNING!
Make sure all hoses are depressurised before opening the couplings (observe
the mortar pressure gauge display).
