1.4 IMPROPER USE OF THE MACHINE
CAUTION: Any servicing operation must be carried out
with the machine either switched
off or isolated from the power supply
CAUTION: Set the machine into motion only after having correctly positioned the bucket.
The machine must be employed only for mixing materials of the kind referred to in paragraph
1.1; any improper use may shorten the life of the machine and jeopardize its smooth functioning.
The mixer presents no other counterindications.
1.5 SAFETY DEVICES AND GUARDS
The “SiriMix” is equipped with a single safety device, the cap (Fig.3; Pos.4):once the machi-
ne is started up it covers the bucket so to avoid the risk of contact with the moving paddle.
1.6 LIST OF CONTROLS
The “Sirimix” is extremely simple as regards controls.
It comes with a self - disconnecting switch supplying power to the motor when in the position
“I”, thus letting the paddle revolving. The motor is stopped simply by pressing the “0” button
(Fig.5).
A safety microswitch is also supplied, allowing the motor to turn only once the paddle has
been completely
lowered into the bucket.
It is vital that the controls are never tempered with.
All maintenance operations must be carried out with the machine switched off or
isolated from the power supply.
Access to the operating controls must be restricted exclusively to authorised persons.
The operator must ensure that all guards and that all safety devices are in their proper place
and operational.
1.6.1 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
The main switch performs a dual function, protecting the operator in the event of a momentary
power loss by breaking the circuit and preventing an uncontrolled restart (cut-out function),
and protecting the motor from overheating and burning out when subjected to a severe
overload: this means in practice that if the paddle happens to become stuck and prevent the
motor from turning, the switch will open automatically.
The switch is operated as follows:
-Pressing the “I” button, power is supplied to the motor circuit (Fig.5);
-Pressing the “0” button, the motor circuit is isolated from the power supply.
