Selecting the Throat

IMPORTANT
Under no circumstances , hands or other objects , unless the pushers supplied with the machine , shall be used to push the food inside the throats .

The use of the correct throat , with the correct pusher , shall be obeyed .
The Ram Feed Arm must be steadily pressed , because on the contrary the food will be displaced inside the throat , producing irregular cuts .
The Food Processor PAIE works at high speed , therefore its feeding shall be equally fast .
For smaller size products , such as carrots, a better cut achievement is obtained using the Round Pusher B (Pic.-05) .
When to prepare a fruits or vegetables combination , using only one disc , or one disc and a grille , always start cutting the softer product , finishing with the hard ones .
When using the Grater Disc , it will be possible to change the grain size . With a light pressure the grains will be thinner, increasing the pressure the resulting grain size will be larger .

Cautions with Stainless Steel:

The Stainless Steel may present rust signs, which ARE ALWAYS CAUSED BY EXTERNAL AGENTS, especially when the cleaning or sanitization is not constant and appropriate.
The Stainless Steel resistance towards corrosion is mainly due to the presence of chrome, which in contact with oxygen allows the formation of a very thin protective coat. This protective coat is formed through the whole surface of the steel, blocking the action of external corrosive agents.
When the protective coat is broken, the corrosion process begins, being possible to avoid it by means of constant and adequate cleaning.
Cleaning must always be done immediately after using the equipment. For such end, use water, neutral soap or detergent, and clean the equipment with a soft cloth or a nylon sponge. Then rinse it with plain running water, and dry immediately with a soft cloth, this way avoiding humidity on surfaces and especially on gaps.
The rinsing and drying processes are extremely important to prevent stains and corrosion from arising.

IMPORTANT
Acid solutions, salty solutions, disinfectants and some sterilizing solutions (hypochlorites, tetravalent ammonia salts, iodine compounds, nitric acid and others), must be AVOIDED, once it cannot remain for long in contact with the stainless steel:

These substances attack the stainless steel due to the CHLORINE on its composition, causing corrosion spots (pitting).
Even detergents used in domestic cleaning must not remain in contact with the stainless steel longer than the necessary, being mandatory to remove it with plain water and then dry the surface completely.

Use of abrasives:
Sponges or steel wool and carbon steel brushes, besides scratching the surface and compromising the stainless steel protection, leave particles that rust and react contaminating the stainless steel. That is why such products must not be used for cleaning and sanitization. Scrapings made with sharp instruments or similar must also be avoided.

Main substances that cause stainless steel corrosion:
Dust, grease, acid solutions such as vinegar, fruit juices, etc., saltern solutions (brine), blood, detergents (except for the neutral ones), common steel particles, residue of sponges or common steel wool, and also other abrasives.

General Safety Practices

IMPORTANT
If any item from the GENERAL SAFETY NOTIONS section is not applicable to your product, please disregard it.

The following safety instructions are addressed to both the operator of the machine as well as the person in charge of maintenance. The machine has to be delivered only in perfect conditions of use by the Distributor to the user. The user shall operate the machine only after being well acquainted with the safety procedures described in the present manual. READ THIS MANUAL WITH ATTENTION.

Basic Operation Practices

Dangerous parts

Some areas of the electric device have parts that are connected or have parts connected to high voltage. These parts when touched may cause severe electrical shocks or even be fatal.

Never touch manual commands such as switches, buttons, keys and knobs with your hands wearing wet clothes and/or wet shoes. By not following these instructions operator could be exposed to severe electrical shocks or even to a fatal situation.

Remove the frame lid . To do that slide it backwards , until have it completely removed from the frame .

Warnings

The operator has to be well familiar with the position of ON/OFF Switch to make sure the Switch is easy to be used when necessary. Before any kind of maintenance, physically remove the plug from its socket .
Provide space for a comfortable operation thus avoiding accidents.
Water or oil spilled on the floor will turn it slippery and dangerous. Make sure the floor is clean and dry.
Before to give any manual command (switch, buttons, turn keys or lever) be sure the command is the correct one . Check this manual for further details if necessary.
Never use a manual command ( switch , buttons , lever ) unadvisedly.
If any work is to be made by two or more persons, coordination signs will have to be given for each operation step . Every step of the operation shall be taken only if a sign has been made and responded.

Advices

In case of power shortage, immediately turn the machine OFF.
Use recommended or equivalent lubricants, oils or greases .
Avoid mechanical shocks as they may cause failures or malfunction.
Avoid penetration of water, dirt or dust into mechanical or electrical components of the machine.
DO NOT MODIFY original characteristics of the machine.
DO NOT REMOVE, TEAR OFF OR MACULATE any safety or identification labels . If any labels has been removed or is no longer legible contact your nearest dealer for replacement.

‘All the discs shall fit with ease on the shaft , by means of a little turning movement .
Any contact between the disc and the frame lid , means the disc is wrongly placed .
Follows the instruction to place and remove the discs :

With the machine switched OFF and the disc still, move the frame lid open/close trigger , placed below on the right side , as shown on the open/close label – Picture – 06 stuck on the lid . With the frame lid open , be careful with the Ram Feed Arm which has to be handled slowly .

Analysis and Problems Solving

Problem, causes and solutions

The Food Processor Model PAIE were designed to operate with the need of minimum maintenance but the natural wearing caused by long use of the equipment may occasionally cause some malfunctions.
If such problem occurs with your processor refer to Table 04 in which the most common situations are listed with recommended solutions.

Table – 04

Adjustments and Components Removal

Blades Sharpening
Blades may be removed and thence they may be sharpened with ease .
However a special care must be given to keep the right cutting angle .
The dicing grille and the French fry grille blades must be sharpened using a thin sandpaper , or a sharpening stone .

Adjustment of the French fry grille
When the French fry sticks start to become irregular, then the grille blades tension shall be tightened . With the help of a screwdriver , loose the two screws under the grille. Then turn the two screws on the grille front side , until the grille blades tight .
To finish tight again the two screws under the grille .

Removing the Motor Housing

a) remove the frame lid ( 10308.0) and any disc assembled on the machine , to do so follow the instructions at item 3.4 .
b) Place the machine had down, and remove the four feet (03086.4) , unscrewing them manually . Remove them with the protection plate(08826.9).
c) With the help of a screwdriver, partially loose the two screws (01639.0) placed behind the electric motor (A) , that fix the motor housing (08708.4). Then remove completely the other four screws (01639.0) that fix the motor housing (08708.4)
d) Move the motor housing (08708.4) towards the cord side until it gets out of the two screws that were initially partially loosen . The motor housing will be removed .

Belts

To achieve a good performance of the machine and to have a long life belt, the belt must be perfectly adjusted . If the belts are loosen they will slide during operation.
As well as, care must be taken not to tight the belt too much because it will prematurely wear the bearings .
To adjust the belt , after having removed the motor housing (08708.4) , item , using a 13 mm spanner, loose the two screws (03793.1) fixing the electric motor (A) , then using a large screwdriver , press the electric motor to tight the belt , and tight again the two screws .

Safety Sensor

To adjust the Ram Feed Arm safety device , open the frame lid , and using a 7mm spanner loose the M4 nut (09205.3). With the help of a 1.5 mm allen key adjust the allen screw M4 (10193.1) until the push button (08698.3) inside the machine acts.
