SAFETY SYSTEMS INSTALLED ON THE MACHINE

Mechanical safety systems

Regarding the mechanical safety systems, the dough mixer described in this manual responds to:

• the EEC 2006/42 Machine Directives.
  

The safety systems are:

• Lid for rotating tank (Fig. n°28 ref. n°1);
• Tank protection (Fig. n°28 ref. n°2).

Electrical safety systems

Regarding the electrical safety systems, the dough mixer described in this manual responds to:

• the low voltage directive EEC 2006/95;
• the electromagnetic compatibility directive EEC 2004/108

The dough mixer is envisioned with:

• thermal protection circuit breaker with manual reset, on back of machine, which stops the machine when current overload or motor jamming occur (Fig. n°29).
  

• A micro switch on the protection, located on the tank, that stops the machine if it is lifted and does not allow switch on unless the protection is closed (Fig. n°30).

• Relay in the control circuit that requires restarting the machine in case of accidental lack of power supply (Fig. n°31).
  

For the liftable head and removable bowl versions:

• a microswitch on bowl guard and head release, causes the machine to stop when the guard is lifted or the head is released (Fig. No. 32)
• a proximity sensor that detects if the bowl is in position or has been removed (Fig. No. 32)
  

Even though the CE professional dough mixers are equipped with regulation measures for electrical and mechanical protections (both during functioning and during cleaning and maintenance), there are however RESIDUAL RISKS that cannot be totally eliminated and are recalled in this manual under the form of

ATTENTION. These relate to danger of contusions or other caused by the tank or other machine components.

USING THE MACHINE

STARTING UP THE MACHINE

For 1st use strictly follow the following instructions:

• check that installation has been carried out correctly as indicated in chapter 2;

• lift the tank’s lid (Fig. 35) and pour inside the tank all of the water and other liquids necessary for the dough;

• add about 50% of the flour and the other solid ingredients (Fig. 36);

• close the lid by lowering it up to slightly touching the tank;

• check before any other operation that the main switch is ON;

• before switch on, check the voltage of the distribution network by means of switch on of the “NETWORK” warning light (Fig. 37);

• press the “START” button to start the machine that will start the work cycle;

• after 2-3 minutes stop the machine by pressing the “STOP” button;

• lift the lid and insert the remaining flour;

• close the lid and start the machine that will blend all ingredients, transforming it into a homogeneous dough;

• a thermal overload protection circuit breaker stops the machine in case of a motor jamming. After removing its cause, you can reset the protection and restart the machine in few minutes.

• at the end of the cycle, the dough will detach from the tank walls, therefore stop the machine;

• if need be, to slightly modify the characteristics of the dough without stopping the machine, pour in the ingredients using the opening on the tank protection (Fig. 38)
  

• Before lifting the protection and removing the dough to be placed on the work bench, pull the plug out of the socket.

MACHINE WITH LIFTABLE HEAD AND REMOVABLE BOWL

Machines with liftable head and removable bowl, though basically working the same as the fixed head and bowl versions, differentiate themselves because of what they can offer at the end of each work cycle:

• Simplifying the removal of dough from the mixer
• Saving time in the cleaning phase

For machine use proceed as described in paragraph 5.1 and at the end of each cycle complete these steps (Fig. No. 39):

• After stopping the machine and unplugging the power supply cable, lift the bowl guard completely
• Rotate the release knob until the head is unlocked
• Lift head using the piston below it
• Rotate the disc clockwise to unlock the bowl
• Lift and remove the bowl, then remove the mixture.

Once the machine has been emptied, re-assemble the bowl making a sure the four pins below are correctly inserted into the holes in the disc, then rotate it counter clockwise (Fig. No. 40).
Reposition the head horizontally by pushing it to lower it progressively. Rotate the release knob to lock it into position.

PRODUCTIVITY AND DURATION OF THE PRODUCTION CYCLE

For each model that maximum production capacity for each cycle is indicated as in Tab. 1-2 .

The duration of the work cycle, in relation to the machine model, can vary from about 14 to 20 minutes.

In models with a timer the work time can be set from 1 to 30 minutes, rotating the knob (Fig. n°41) to the desired position and starting the machine. When the prefixed time limit is reached, the timer stops the machine.

Do not exceed the quantity of dough that the machine can produce in each operational cycle indicated also in Tab. 1 (depending on the model).

Adding water and other ingredients to the mass already partially mixed inside the tank must be carried out gradually to the indicative proportion of about 2 Kg of flour for each litre of liquid. Pour first the water then the flour into the tank.

ROUTINE CLEANING

GENERAL

• the machine must be cleaned at least once a day or if necessary, more frequently.

• all dough mixer parts that come into direct or indirect contact with the processed foodstuff must be scrupulously cleaned.

• Do not use hydro cleaners, high pressure water jets but neutral detergents (pH 7) to clean the dough mixer Any other product is forbidden. Do not use tools, brushes and other than can superficially damage the machine.
  Before carrying out any cleaning operation:

• Disconnect the plug to fully isolate the machine from the rest of the plant.

CLEANING THE MACHINE
The tank, the shaft and the spiral must be cleaned at the end of each working cycle and must be carried out using hot water and a sponge. Carefully dry each element at the end of the cleaning operation.
Use a sponge wet slightly with a small amount of detergent and non harmful sanitizer to clean the outside of the machine.
Do not use abrasive detergents, detergent creams, solvents or diluents ;residuals of these products can dangerously contaminate the foodstuff during successive processing.
Do not use abrasives or metallic chaffs to prevent damaging the surfaces by scratching.

MAINTENANCE

GENERAL

Before carrying out any maintenance operation it is necessary that:

• the plug be disconnected from the network in order to isolate completely the machine from the rest of the plant.

TIGHTENING THE TOP CHAIN

The chain must be tightened if, when carrying out excessive checks it is loose or if spiral rotation is not constant. In this case call the “AFTER SALES CENTRE” for retightening.

GREASING THE CHAINS

It is recommended that both drive chains be greased periodically using suitable grease to guarantee lubrication of all chain links.

POWER CABLE
