PREMISE
This manual has been edited to supply the client with information on the machine and on the rules connected to it, as well as the use and maintenance instructions for a better use of the mean, keeping its efficiency intact in time.
This manual must be handed over to the persons in charge of using the machine and its periodic maintenance.

CHAP. 1 – INFORMATION ON THE MACHINE

1.1 – GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
The machine must only be used by trained staff who must be perfectly aware of the safety rules contained in this manual.
In case of personnel turnover, provide training in time.
Disconnect the machine from the mains before cleaning and maintaining.
When intervening for machine maintenance or cleaning (and therefore protections are removed), carefully evaluate the residue risks.
During maintenance or cleaning, keep concentrated on the operations in progress.
Periodically check the state of the power supply cable; a worn cable or not intact, represents a serious electrical danger.
Should the machine give reason to presume or show a malfunctioning, do not use it and do not try to repair it; but call the “After-Sales Centre”.
Do not use the machine for frozen products, products with bones and, however, non-food products.
Do not try to place your hands or other objects in the container whilst the machine is working.
The manufacturer is lifted of every responsibility in the following cases:
⇒the machine is tampered with by unauthorised personnel;
⇒components are replaced with other non originals;
⇒the instructions in this annual are not attentively followed;
⇒the machine surfaces are treated with unsuitable products.

1.2 – SAFETY DEVICES INSTALLED ON THE MACHINE
1.2.1 – mechanical safety devices
With regard to mechanical safety, the machine described in this manual is in compliance with Directive EEC 2006/42.
1.2.2 – electrical safety devices
With regard to mechanical safety, the machine described in this manual is in compliance with Directive EEC 2006/95, 2004/108.

fem BT10 10 Liter Planetary Mixer - RECEIVING THE
MACHINE

Mod. 20-30-40
Heavy package. Do not lift manually unless with help of at least three people
Move the package only by electrical trolleys or manually, equipped with lifting straps

3.2 – CHECKING THE PACKAGE UPON RECEIPT
Upon receiving the package, if there are no external damages, open it to check that all the material is contained within (see FIG. n.3). Whereas, if, upon receiving the package it shows signs of mistreatments, impacts or falls, show the damage to the carrier and, within 3 days from delivery date, shown on the documents, draft a precise report on the
damages sustained by the machine. Do not turn the package upside down!! When transporting, be sure that it is firmly held from the 4 fundamental points (keeping it parallel to the ground).
3.3 – DISPOSAL OF PACKAGING
The packaging components (cardboard, plastic strap) are products assimilable with municipal solid waste; for this reason, they can be easily disposed of.
In case the machine is installed in countries where particular rules exist, dispose of the packaging in compliance with that provided by the rules in force.

CHAP. 4 – INSTALLATION

4.1 – PLACING THE MACHINE
The surface on which the machine will be located must allow for the support dimensions indicated in the table (see Chap. 2), and, therefore, be sufficiently wide, correctly levelled, dry, smooth, robust and stable.
Also, the machine must be installed in a room with 75% max humidity, not salty and a temperature between +5°C and +35°C; however, in rooms which do not entail disorders of the same.
4.2 – SINGLE PHASE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The machine is equipped with a power supply cable with 3×1.5 mm² section; 1.5m length and a “SHUKO” plug.
Connect the machine 230 Volt 50 Hz, interposing a 10A, ∆ I = 0.03A magneto- thermal circuit breaker. Ensure the earthing plant is perfectly functional.
Also check that the data reported on the technical-serial number plaque (FIG.n.4) corresponds to the data reported on the delivery and accompanying documents.
4.2.1 – THREE PHASE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The machine is equipped with a feeding cable with a cross section area of 5×1,5mm², length ≅1.5m and a red 15A 3F + T CEI plug. Connect the machine to the 400 V. – 50Hz three-phase supply mains, interposing a magnetothermic differential switch of 10 A, ∆I=0.03A.
Also check that the data reported on the technical-serial number plaque (FIG.n.4) corresponds to the data reported on the delivery and accompanying documents.

4.2.2 – tools rotation direction
Check the direction of the tools rotation with a pulse of the “I” push-button (ON), immediately followed by the “0” pushbutton OFF.
The direction of the tools rotation must be clockwise when looking at the machine from the front side (see arrow Fig. n°6).
In the case that the  rotation direction is not exact, invert (Fig. n°5)) the positi  of two of the three phase wires  (black, gray or brown) in the plug.fem BT10 10 Liter Planetary Mixer - rotation

  1. Lower the lever (Fig.1 – ref.10) clockwise.

  2. Insert the tool suitable for the work to be carried out;

  3. Insert the bowl in the appropriate supports and fix it with the hooks present in the supports (Fig.1 – ref.3).

  4. ATTENTION) place the product into the bowl paying attention to the inserted tool;

  5. Lift the lever (Fig.1 – ref.10) anti-clockwise, in order to bring the bowl in working position;

  6. Assume a correct position in order to avoid accidents (see FIG. n.9): the body must be perpendicular to the work surface; the hands must not force the machine components or obstruct the movements of the same.
    In any case, do not lean on to the machine, avoiding assuming positions which might entail direct contact with the machine.
    ATTENTION!
    Please use the planetary mixer for maximum 30 minutes ON and then leave it 10 minutes OFF

CHAP. 8 – DISMANTLING

8.1 – DECOMMISSIONING
If, for any reason it should be decided to place the machine out of order, ensure it cannot be used by any other person: disconnect and cut the electrical connections.

8.2 – RAEE Waste of Electrical and Electronic Appliances
**** According to art.13 of Legislative Decree 25 July 2005, n.151 ”Implementation of Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC, concerning the restriction on the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, as well as the disposal of waste”.
The symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin on the appliance or on its packaging indicates that, at the end of its lifespan, the product must be collected separately from other waste.
Once reached the end of its life-span, the differential collection of this appliance  isarranged and managed by the manufacturer. The user wanting to dispose of this appliance will therefore have to contact the manufacturer and follow  the system adopted by him to allow the separate collection of the appliance that has reached the end of its life-span.
The adequate differential collection for the subsequent start of the appliance dismantled for recycling, treatment and compatible environmental disposal, contributes to avoid possible negative effects on the environment and on health, and favours the re-use and/or recycle of the materials composing the machine.
The unlawful disposal of the product  onbehalf of the owner, involves the application of  administrative sanctions provided by the normative in force.
