1.4 Description of the machine
The machine in your possession is simple, compact, highly efficient, and powerful equipment.
Since it must be used in food applications, the components were carefully chosen to provide maximum hygiene.

• The basin is made of electropolished stainless steel.
• The tools are made of stainless steel to ensure durability and maximum hygiene.
• Cast stainless steel spout
• Copper extruders. – Ventilated single-phase motors offer the following advantages:
• consistency, high performance, and durability of the motor;
• increases the real operation time due to fewer interruptions;
  – It provides two operation modes: mixing and extruding.
  – Maximum mixing capacity 4.2 kg (3 kg flour 1.2 kg egg)
  – Pre-arranged for dough-cutter installation.
  The version represented in this manual has been built in compliance with EC Directive 2006/42 and further modifications.
  In case of an accident, no responsibility can be charged to the manufacturer if the machine has been modified, tampered with if it has been used with the safety guards removed, or for purposes not permitted by the manufacturer.
  1.5 Permitted use
  The machine was designed and built for fresh pasta production. It is to be used in professional environments; the machine operator has to be spe
  – specialize in the field and have read and understood this manual. Do not use the machine unless safely fixed to a solid workbench.
  1.6 Improper use not permitted
  The machine must be used exclusively for the purposes intended by the manufacturer; in particular:
  – do not use the machine for food products other than those indicated by the manufacturer.
  – do not use the machine unless it has been properly installed with all the protections intact and properly assembled to avoid the risk of severe injury.
  – do not access the electrical components without having previously disconnected the machine from the mains: one risks electrocution.
  – Follow the indicated flour/liquid quantities. Wrong quantities of ingredients can generate permanent damage to the machine.
  – Do not wear clothing that does not follow the safety regulations.
  Check with your employer as regards the safety regulations and safety equipment to be provided with.
  – Do not use the equipment if damaged.

  – Do not allow unauthorized persons to operate on the equipment.
  The emergency treatment in case of an accident caused by electrical shock implies to first removing the contact between the injured person from the conductor (since usually, the person faints). This is a dangerous operation. The victim in this case is a conductor: touching him/her could imply being electrocuted.
  It should therefore first be removed contacts directly from the supply valve, otherwise move the victim using insulating materials (wood or PVC stick, cloth, leather, etc.).
  It is recommended to call for medical staff, the patient has to be transferred to a hospital.

Inspection, shipping, delivery, and installation

4.1 Inspection
The equipment in your possession has been tested at our factory to verify that all moving parts work properly and it is properly adjusted. The tests are carried out with materials similar to those processed by the user.
4.2 – Shipping and handling the machine
All materials shipped have been thoroughly checked before delivery to the shipping company.
Unless otherwise agreed upon with the customer, the machine is wrapped with nylon and fixed with steel straps on the bench, covered by a box which is also fixed with steel straps to the pallet. On receiving the machine, check the integrity of the packaging. In case of damage to the packaging, the carrier shall sign the notice of receipt for instance which should sound like this: “I tentatively accept…” and the reason.
ON opening the packaging, in case of badly damaged components of the machine, file a complaint to the shipping company within three days from the date indicated on the documents.
4.3 – Installation
WARNING!
The machine installation area has to be sturdy and the surface has to ensure safe support. When positioning the machine keep extensive space around it. This allows greater maneuverability during operation and ensures access for maintenance. Prepare suitable lighting around the machine to ensure proper visibility to the machine operator. – Remove the cellophane wrapping off the machine and another packaging present on the inside.
4.3.1 – Disposing of the packaging
The components such as cardboard, nylon, and wood products are comparable to municipal solid wastes. They can therefore be freely disposed of. Nylon is a pollutant material that produces toxic fumes when burned. Do not burn it; dispose of it in accordance with the laws in force regarding the matter. If the machine is delivered in countries where special rules are implemented, the packaging must be disposed of off according to such regulations.
4.3.2 – Handling the machine
WARNING!
Handle the machine with care and attention, and avoid accidental falls that could damage it. To avoid muscle strain, when lifting the machine, use the force of the legs.
4.4 – Electrical connections
WARNING!
Ensure the mains match the voltage given on the equipment’s ID plate. All interventions must be carried out exclusively by specialized and expressly authorized personnel. Carrie out the electrical connection to properly earthed mains.
4.4.1 – Single-phase machine 220 Volt-50 Hz
In this version, the machine is supplied with a power cable having a 3 x 1.5 mm cross-section. The cable is connected to a three-poles single-phase plug. Connect the cable to single-phase 220 Volt-50 Hz mains; interpose a differential circuit breaker of 16 amps.

In installations with voltages other than those mentioned, please consult the manufacturer. Should it be necessary to lengthen the power cable, use a cable having a cross-section that matches the one installed by the manufacturer?

Starting-up and shutting-down
