By pressing the button
„info“
T
the info menu can be called up. The machine has to be in the basic position (pls. refer to point 7).

Hint!
After having scanned pressure moulding material, only specific information on this kind of material will be available. The info menu is not
available and disappears during the pressure moulding process (heating/pressurising/cooling). Hints and instruction on the pres-
sure moulding process are considered with priority and appear on the display, as soon as infrared heater, pressure chamber or
locking ring are moved from the basic position.

5. Main connection
Connect the BIOSTAR
®
machine to the corresponding network by plugging in the original power cable on the back of the machine
7
, (please also
refer to connection to the local network in the safety instructions). Two fuses are built in to protect the machine from high voltage (230 V version).
To exchange the fuses press the little clip below the connector
8
and take off the fuse. For the 100 V/115 V versions, these fuses are built in two
separate fuse covers
R
, which can be unscrewed.
6. Compressed air connection
A 20 bar tube
9
with filter element is fixed to the back of the machine and should not be exchanged. Connect the BIOSTAR
®
machine to the air press-
sure system. Use the 20 bar tube and optionally a quick connect coupling. The working pressure is set up at 6 bar/87 psi and should not be changed
as it is calibrated to achieve the best pressure moulding results.
However, if you wish to lower the working pressure, just adjust it by using the pressure regulator
J
on the back of the machine. Before turning the
regulator, pull to release it (
).
Adjust the pressure by turning the regulator and push it in afterwards. If the pressure exceeds 6.5 bar/94 psi the security valve will be set into action.
(depressurisation noise).
7. Basic position
Infrared heater
1
is swivelled back to the stop, pressure chamber
2
is opened to the left, locking ring handle
3
is swivelled back to the stop
(12 o‘clock position). Please refer to fig.1
8. Switching on
Press the ON/OFF button
M
, allow the machine 10 seconds to set itself up before using. Now the display shows the standard dialogue which is the
starting point for any pressure moulding operation. Programming is done through display
O
or sanner
P
and shown in the display
N
.
9. Positioning of blanks
All round blanks and foils with a diameter of 125 mm and a thickness of 0.1 to 5.0 mm can be pressed in the BIOSTAR
®
machine. Open the pressure
chamber
2
by swivelling to the left side, take off the locking ring
K
by turning it in 5 o‘clock position. Place the material directly on the 0 ring in
the pressure chamber. Put on the adjustment ring
L
, so that the bayonet clamps slip under the bevel of the locking device of the chamber. Tighten
by turning clockwise into 6 o‘clock position.
