Danger of machine turnover
Danger of impact and squashing for people
During lifting and transport must be used great caution to avoid injury to people and things.
This operation must be performed by expert personnel.
Verify that nobody is exposed to a risk in danger zone.
WHEN LIFTING ALL THE AREA SURROUNDING THE MACHINE MUST BE
CONSIDERED DANGER ZONE.
Until the groups (bowl, separator) are not completely lifted it’s better to verify the correct
balancing of them. The lifting must be performed with continuity (without impulses).
Keep the load lower than possible during movements, both for a better load stability, and for a
higher visibility.
The manufacturer does not answer about breakages due to the transport of the machine after
the delivery.
All the elements that are potentially moveable or not resistant to his weight must be securely
fixed to the machine to prevent dangerous disjunctions or unbalancings.
For the machine not packed is prescribed a covered transport.

humidity and temperature conditions reported in § 5.1.
If the machine remains unused for a long time (more than 3 months), after it has already
worked al least once, perform the following operations:
- accurately clean the separator;
- dry with clothes and greased all the bowl parts and the unpainted parts of the machine, to
avoid corrosions;
