4. Installation section 

4.1. Positioning 

 

 

 

 

 

    Warning

 

Before  positioning  the  machine  check  that  the 
machine,  the  associated  accessories  and  the 
parts  supplied  separately  have  not  been 
damaged during transportation. 

 
It is the task of the Client to make sure that the strength 
of the supporting surface, at the point of installation, is 
adequate for the weight of the machine. 
The  flooring  at  the  point  of  installation  must  be 
sufficiently level.  
Isolate  the  machine  from  any  potential  vibrations 
coming from other nearby machinery. 
 
In  the  case  where  the  machine  or  any  of  the 
associated  accessories  are  found  damaged  it  is 
important  to  alert  the  manufacturer  of  the  found 
anomaly so as to agree on the actions to be taken. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

   Attention

 

The machine must be placed on a level surface; 
for 

the 

other 

environmental 

requirements 

necessary  for  optimal  functioning  of  the 
machine please see sections 1.11 and

 

2.5.. 

 

4.2. Electrical connections 

 

 

 

 

 

  Attention

 

The  connection  of  the  machine  to  the  electrical 
system  must  be  carried  out  by  personnel 
observing 

the 

legislation 

in 

force; 

the 

characteristics of the  electrical connection must 
be  compatible  with  the  electrical  specifications 
of  the  machine  which  can  be  found  in  the 
relevant section or on the apposite plaque on the 
door of the electric panel.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

   Attention

 

If  the  machine  has  been  purchased  to  be 
powered by a three phase line, make sure that in 
the  socket  there  is  a  connection  to  the  neutral 
wire. This is necessary for the functioning of the 
machine. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   Attention

 

Before  starting  any  procedure  make  sure  that 
there are no objects inside the tank. 

 
When connecting the machine to the electrical system 
via a three phase line, check the direction of rotation as 
follows: 

1)  plug in the machine 
2)  verify  that  the  emergency  stop  button  is  not 

pressed and, if this is the case, reset it 

3)  put the protection grill on the tank (see section 

4.3) 

4)  press  the  reset  button,  the  machine  stand-by 

light will go on (section  5,1, lamp D) 

5) 

press  the  “prewarm”  button  (section  5.1, 
button B) 

6) 

press  the  “restore  functions”  button  (section 
5.1,  button  I);  the  machine  will  produce  an 
acoustic signal 

7) 

press  the  “mixer  command”  button  (section 
5.1, button C); the blade in the tank (mixer) will 
start to rotate 

 

 

 

 

 

 

    Warning

 

The  machine  can  work  only  if  the  tank  mixer  is

 

rotating  anticlockwise  when  observed  from 
above. 

 
If the rotation  direction  is  wrong,  it  is  necessary  to  act 
as follows: 

1) 

press  the  “mixer  command”  button  (section 
5.1, button C); the blade in the tank (mixer) will 
stop moving 

2)  switch off feeds to the machine by pushing the 

emergency button 

3)  disconnect  the  plug,  open  it  and  swap  the 

position  of  the  two  black  wires  (see  the 
following  picture),  paying  attention  not  to 
disconnect the other wires 

 

 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Attention

 

This  operation  should  be  carried  out  by  a 
technician or by a maintenance electrician.
