2. WARNING (continued)
2.1. SAFETY (continued)
WORKSPACE

• Maintain the workspace clean and clear.
• Ambient operating temperature must be from 5°C and 35°C.
• Do not use the equipment in a potentially explosive area.
• Do not place any potentially inflammable objects in close proximity to the machine.
• Take away every not qualified person from the working area of the machine, as well as children and animals.
• In case of installation of the machine on scaffolding or a plan above ground level, attach the machine to avoid any fall while operating.
• Do not install the equipment on an inclined surface to avoid the risks of unexpected moves or falls.

HOSES

• Always use hoses and connections adapted to the used product (genuine parts), do not try to fix it.
• Do not walk on the hoses, do not bend them.
• Do not use the hoses to pull the machine.

STORAGE

• Keep the equipment in a clean and clear area in which the temperature does not exceed +35°C.
• After every use, necessarily grease the pump with a mixture of water + storage liquid to avoid it blocking up. The storage of a not greased pump can damage it seriously.
  IN CASE OF NECESSITY, WE SAVE OURSELVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE ANY USEFUL MODIFICATION WITHOUT ADVANCED NOTICE.

2. WARNING (continued)
2.2. ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The electric connection of the machine must be on a 16A – 230V plug with a differential circuit breaker.
Before any intervention on the machine, make sure that every energy supply is cut (air and electricity).

GROUND CONNECTOR

All the machines must be connected to the ground when they work to protect the operator from electric shocks. Our machines are all equipped with standardized connection plugs. The electric connection must be made by a qualified technician. It is forbidden to modify or dismantle the machine, especially the electric box.
Repairs must be made by an authorized center or our After-sale Service.
During any intervention on the machine, make sure that the ground is well reconnected.

EXTENSION CORDS

During the use of an extension cord, make sure that it is not crushed or damaged and that it contains ground. Check that the section of the used extension cord is sufficient to support the machine when it is working. A too- thin extension cord can cause voltage drops or overheat of the machine.
In case of use of a cable reel, it is imperative to unwind it entirely, otherwise, the equipment can be damaged. The section must be proportional to the length of the cord.

2.3. END OF LIFE OF THE PRODUCT
At its end of life, the machine must not be eliminated with the other household waste. The uncontrolled elimination of waste can harm the environment or human health. Individuals are invited to contact the distributor which sold them the product or to inquire with their city hall to know where and how to get rid of the product so it can be recycled while respecting the environment.
Under the regulation of Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), we undertake to process the used EEEs according to the following provisions: applicable only to products on the market since 08/13/05, under the brands EUROPE PROJECTION or VOLUMAIR, products of other brands sold by our company (upon presentation of the corresponding invoices), products that operate using electrical energy (for example, thermal washers or compressors do not fall into this category).
Treatment modality
WEEE returns are collected by our clients/distributors at their own expense to our collection points in Antony (92) or Rousset sur Arc (13). Upon receipt, the products are sorted by our employees and directed to the most appropriate processing channels. For any further information, please contact our hotline to conseil@euromair.com or +33 4 42 29 08 96.

USE OF THE MACHINE

4.1. PREREQUISITES
• The electric connection has to be 230 V – 16 A – 50 or 60 Hz with a 3 x 2,5 mm cable reel of 40m maximum, completely unreeled.
• The machine must be coupled to a compressor.
4.2. STARTING UP

1. Once the machine is connected, connect the air hose on the compressor.
2. Press the “ON/OFF” button (A), the warning light lights up.
3. Remove the nozzle from the lance, then open the lance.
4. Set the flow rate on 3 with the potentiometer (B).
5. Set the (C) button on “MANU” to check that the machine is working correctly. The drive shaft at the bottom of the tank shall turn.
6. Switch back the (C) button to the “AUTO” position.
7. Pour some product into the tank, then switch back the (C) button to “MANU” position.
8. Wait until the product flows regularly to the lance.
9. Switchback the (C) button to “AUTO” position.
10. Close the lance and replace the nozzle.
11. Connect the air hose to the lance.
12.  Switch on the compressor*.
13. When opening the lance, the machine starts running.
14.  Start spraying.

*NB: the compressor must be plugged in alone on a 16 A minimum plug with a 3 x 2,5 mm cable reel of 40m maximum, completely unreeled.

4.3. GRAIN SETTING
Large grain
High product flow-rate (to set from 1 to 10 with the potentiometer (B)).
Low air pressure (to set from 0 to 8 with the air regulator of the compressor).
Thin grain
Low product flow-rate.
High air pressure.

CLEANING PROCEDURE

Disconnect the machine from the power supply before any intervention.
Before unscrewing the hose, make sure it is not under pressure anymore.

1. Open the drain valve (I) and empty the tank. If needed, add some water to flow out the remaining product.
2. Rinse the tank with water.
3. Close the drain valve, fill the tank with some soapy water and run the machine so the stator can be soaped. (Caution: never use solvant for this operation because the stator would deteriorate).
4. Stop the machine.
5. Dismantle the connector on the lance and on the pump.
6. Put the cleaning ball in the pump nose, then replace the hose on the pump.
7. Turn the machine on to make the ball go through the hose until it comes out.
8. Repeat operations 5 to 7.
9. Stop the machine.
10. Take off the connector on the pump again and flush out the pump nose.
11. Clean the lance and the nozzle.
12. Pour some storage liquid into the tank, according to the recommended dilution on the bottle.
13. Disconnect the machine from the power supply.

The direct projection of water under pressure onto the control panel has to be stopped at the risk of water infiltration into the electric box. Proceed by simply cleaning with a humid sponge.
