• The instruction handbook gives technical information on how the machine is manufactured at the present time; the
manufacturer reserves the right to carry out any modifications he deems necessary to the machines and to the
instruction handbooks, without prior notice or replacement.
This handbook should last at least as long as the machine itself.
It is, therefore, a good idea to protect it against damages.
If you lose or destroy the handbook, you may ask for a copy. Please give the rating plate data (see chap. 1) in your
request.

WARNINGS FOR TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
• This symbol, placed on each packaging, indicates the weight of each package.
• Always check that the tools and machines to handle and transport the machine are adequate.
• Always keep the machine in an upright position. If the machine should accidentally turn upside-down or
on its side, do not switch it on. Put it in the correct position and contact the manufacturer.
2.3
WARNINGS FOR INSTALLATION
• Installation should always be carried out by specialized personnel.
• Carefully follow the instructions on how to prepare the plant systems before installing the machine.
• When the installation site is being prepared, bear in mind the space and work conditions of the personnel in charge
of the machine so as to reduce to a minimum noise, fatigue, discomfort and anything else which may have a negative
influence on the staff.
• When designing the installation site, remember to leave sufficient space for control, maintenance, cleaning, and
removal of production waste material.
• Make sure there are clear notices near the machine to warn personnel who are not in charge of the dangers withing
the work range of the machine during the work cycle.
• Make sure that the work site is adequately lit so that personnel can work in optimum conditions.
• When designing the installation site, please refer to the norms in force and in particular:
- set up all the firefighting and safety devices.
Operations that must be
carried out by at least
two people.

2.4
WARNINGS FOR PERSONNEL IN CHARGE OF THE MACHINE
• After a pause of over 48 hours in the work cycle, always heat the compressor
oil before carrying out any work (see paragraph 8.1).
• The machine may only be used by personnel who have read the rules
described in this handbook.
• If the chamber is opened in temperatures that differ greatly from ambient
temperatures, problems could be created: if the internal temperature is
high, it will be very difficult to close the door because of expansion; if the
internal temperature is very low, phenomena of condensate and frosting
due to ambient humidity could occur. If the door is opened frequently in
these conditions, it is not only dangerous but could cause damage to the gaskets of the door and could obstruct the
heat exchangers.
2.5
WARNINGS FOR MAINTENANCE
• Always disconnect the machine from the hydraulic and electrical mains supply before carrying out any maintenance
operation whatsoever.
• Always close all the stop valves above the machine.
• Do not use solvents or alcohol to clean the varnished parts as these products could damage the surface.
2.6
EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS
• The symbols shown below may be found on the machine or in this instruction handbook.
• Pay attention to their meaning before going any further.
Very important!
In order to guarantee the
standard of safety for the
products to be tested and for
the machine, always set the
software and hardware
temperature
alarms (paragraph 8.2).
