6.1 POSITIONING AND MAINTENANCE

The machine must only be installed by qualified and authorised staff.

The machine must only be used for the purpose of dividing or dividing and rounding dough.

The warranty is not valid if changes are made without the manufacturer’s authorisation and/or if non-original spare parts are used. Use of nonoriginal spare parts can damage the machine and/or harm the operator.

The machine must be positioned on a solid and regular floor. The machine is very stable.

6.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

A qualified technician should carry out installation and an electrician should connect the machine to the power supply system. Firstly check the voltage and the connection phases are equal to those of the machine (see identification plate). If this is not the case, contact the retailer.

Check the rotation direction of the motor on the machine. Turn the main knob to position I-ON. Close the guard casing and run an “empty” work cycle. Check if the shaping plate oscillates. If this is not the case, an electrician must invert the phases, i.e. he must invert the two cables in the power plug to change the rotation direction of the motor.

6.3 DISPOSAL OF THE MACHINE

When you want to dispose of an entire machine, parts or just the packaging, you must comply with the waste disposal rules. Specifications regarding the material on the various parts can be obtained from the manufacturer. See WEEE.

6.4 PLACING MACHINE OUT OF SERVICE

Switch off the machine by bringing the main switch to 0-OFF and subsequently protecting the machine from external factors and leave it in a dry and enclosed location.

7.1 SCOPE OF THE MACHINE

The dividers are machines that enable cutting pieces of raw dough, in various parts, even large in size, of equal shape and weight according to the model.

N.B.: all parts in contact with the product are suitable for the food industry

7.2 UNPERMITED USE OF THE MACHINE

The divider can only be used for the activities described in chapter 8.

The machine can only be cleaned using products suitable for the food industry.

Ensure the machine is on a flat surface.

Only use original spare parts.

Do not use mixtures with metal, stones or other particular objects, which could compromise parts of the machine.

7.3 DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMAND KEYPAD a b c d

a. Mains light

b. Emergency

c. Size change selector (only on double cut models)

Selector for high/low pressure (optional - not available on double

cutting models)

d. Command joystick (4 positions)

7.4 HOW THE COMMAND KEYPAD WORKS

7.4.1 POSITIONS OF THE JOYSTICK

The machine is equipped with a joystick used to execute all the functions.

W (Work) the machine executes the complete work cycle

(automatic pressing and cutting)

P (Press) the machine only executes the pressing phase.

C (Clean) the machine brings the knives to the highest position to execute cleaning

D (Down) the machine brings the knives and the work surface to the lowest position (rest position)

N.B.: when the joystick is released, at any time, the machine leaves the knives and the work surface in the current position.

7.4.2 CHANGING THE NUMBER OF DIVISIONS

(only on double cut models)

On models with a double cut, use the selector to set two types of division.

pos. + the machine is cutting with the most number of divisions (e.g. mod 10/20 divides in 20 pieces)

pos. - the machine cuts with the least number of divisions (e.g. mod 10/20 divides in 10 pieces)

7.4.3 CHANGING THE WORKING PRESSURE

(only on models with regulator)

On models with a pressure regulator, using the selector, you can set two mode types.

pos. + High Pressure: the machine executes the pressing phase with the standard pressure set

(approx 40 bar)

pos. - Low Pressure: the machine executes the pressing phase with reduced pressure (approx

25 bar) to avoid the dough going flat that you are working on (specifically for certain types of dough)

7.5 ERROR SIGNALS

If the machine is on (mains light on), but there is no sign of operation:

. check the emergency is not inserted.

13

8.1 WORKING CYCLE

The phases follow for correct use of the divider

1. Position the main switch in the ON position

2. Insert the weighed dough in the basin

3. Close the cover using the specific handle

14

4. Position the joystick in position W; the machine automatically presses and cuts

5. On finishing the cutting phase (after a few seconds), slightly lower the work surface by positioning the joystick on D

6. Open the cover, raise the work surface by positioning the joystick on W and remove the cut product.

8.2 USEFUL ADVICE

To obtain a good product, proceed as follows:

. Put flour inside the basin;

. Insert the dough;

. Put flour over the dough.

Using this method, you avoid the dough sticking to the basin and the cover during the pressing and cutting phase.

The following information will help you obtain the best possible results.

The pieces of dough are not the same weight?

. Ensure the piece of dough is positioned at the centre of the basin and is slightly pressed by hand.

. Be sure the dough has the right pre-leavening time (depending on the dough, but fifteen minutes is normally enough)

. If the outer pieces are smaller than the inner ones, you need to do as follows: before cutting the dough by positioning the joystick on W, execute a first pressing phase by positioning the joystick on P.

. If the dough is not cut, you need to increase the cutting time

. Check the weight of the dough to cut complies with the capacity of the machine

. With a medium consistency dough, the machine can produce dough pieces that have a weight change of 3-4%.

10.1 DAILY MAINTENANCE

To carefully clean the work surface and the knives, follow the various phases described below.

. Keeping the cover open, position the work surface in the lowest position

(rest), moving the joystick to D (fig. 1);

. Position the joystick on position C; the machine will position the knives in the highest position (fig.2).

. Once the knives are cleaned, press the joystick on W: the machine will lift the surface (fig.3) to conclude the cleaning operation.

fig.1

fig.2

fig.3

. Keep the work surface and the edge of the basin clean to correctly close the cover during the work cycle.

10.2 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

To ensure the machine works properly and, in particular to ensure a long life, you are advised to periodically clean it, inside and out (see use manual). The stainless steel parts, the painted covers, the polyethylene

PE500 and the plates in PETG can be easily cleaned with water and soap or a neutral detergent, then you need to rinse them with plenty of water and dry them with a soft cloth.

1. Position the main switch in the O OFF position

2. Open the casings using the specific locks

3. Clean inside the machine
