•
Leave a minimal space of 200mm around the machine so that not to obstruct air outlets.
Working environmental conditions:
•
Temperature from + 5°C to + 40°C.
•
Relative humidity from 30% to 90%, without condensation.
The lighting of the operation room shall comply with the laws in force in the country where the machine is installed.
However, it shall be uniform and provide for good visibility in order to safeguard the operator's safety and health.

2.3. Users
2.3.1. Electrical connections
• OBSERVE HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS!
• If the machine is not equipped with the power supply plug, use a plug that is suitable for the voltage and
amperage values described by the rating plate and that can comply with the rules in force in the
installation country.
• GROUNDING OF THE UNIT IS OBLIGATORY! (figure 2.3.1. page 51).
Before executing electrical connetions (13), make sure the mains voltage matches the one on the plate (14) on machine
rear and that the ground contact complies with the safety rules in force. In case of doubts about the mains voltage,
contact the local public supply Company.

Connect gas attachment, in case the machine is equipped with such a device, to the gas cylinder through the proper tube
(H) (figure 1.4.B page 50). Pressure of gas plant has to be set on about 2 atm., bearing in mind the max. working
pressure is 4 atm.
If the pressure is not correct, act on the knob of the pressure reducer (R) (figure 1.4.B page 50).
Use specific gas for food package in compliance with the rules in force about food additives in the country
where the machine is used.
Never use gaseous mixtures in presence of oxygen in a percentage higher than the atmospheric
