1.4 – Description of the machine
The grater you have purchased is a simple, compact and powerful machine, with a high yield.
– Since it must be used to grate food products the components that can come into contact with the product have been carefully chosen to guarantee maximum hygiene.
– The base is made of micro shot-peened AISI 304 stainless steel.
– The inlets in aluminum G-AlMg3 have been treated with a buffering procedure to facilitate cleaning.
– The roller is made of AISI 304 stainless steel to guarantee maximum hygiene and make it last longer.
– The motor is self-ventilated to keep yield constant during the prolonged use of the machine.
– The AISI 304 stainless steel extractable sieve (provided upon request) is used to grate the dry bread uniformly.
The models represented in this manual have been manufactured in compliance with the EEC Directive 2006/42 and modifications thereafter.
In case of an accident the manufacturer cannot be held responsibile if the machine has been modified or tampered with, if the safety protections have been removed, or if the machine has been used for purposes prohibited by the manufacturer.
