Chapter 6. Safety standards
6.1. Warnings
Before starting the automatic cycle, make sure that all necessary adjustments have been made.
All machine adjustments will be made with the selector (6) in the "MAN." position (figure 6.1.A page 68).
In case of blocking of the machine or in order to stop it during the automatic cycle press the EMERGENCY
PUSHBUTTON (8) (figure 6.1.B page 69).
Do not touch the sealing blade (27) soon after sealing by reaching beyond the safety guard (28). Danger of burns
due to residual heat on the sealing blade (27) (figure 6.1.C page 69).
Do not keep on sealing if the sealing blade breaks (27). Replace it at once (figure 6.1.C page 69).
Do not touch the chamber closing flap (29) during warm-up. Danger of burns (figure 6.1.D page 69).
Do not touch the conveyor belt (17) when it is in motion (figure 6.1.D page 69).
Make sure the film reel is properly lodged in is place (31) (figure 6.1.E page 69).
Make sure the rubber feet (30) of machine are lodged in the holes of the wheeled stand (figure 6.1.E page 69).
In case of interruption of the power supply when the machine is operating and the hood (19) is closed, intervene
immediately disassembling the hood, levering between profile (A) and frame (B) (figure 6.1.F page 69).
When the machine is not in use, leave the upper hood (19) open (figure 6.1.D page 69).

Chapter 7. Ordinary maintenance

7.1. Instructions for ordinary maintenance work

ORDINARY MAINTENANCE MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED, APPROPRIATELY TRAINED STAFF.
Before carrying out maintenance, switch the machine off with the main ON/OFF switch, disconnect
it and wait for the machine to cool down!
Wear protective gloves during maintenance operations!

7.2. Sealing blade cleaning

Using a dry cloth, wipe any film residues off the sealing blade: do this at once after sealing since they are easier to
remove when still warm.
Periodically lubricate the sealing blade with the grease supplied with the machine (figure 7.2. page 69).

7.3. Plastic film and other scrap removal

Wait for the machine to cool down completely before removing any scraps stuck to the hot parts of the machine (e.g. , on
the flaps of the heat chamber).
If the lower cover (housing of the fan) needs cleaning, remove the conveyor belt (17) turning the handwheel (18) and
remove the pieces which have fallen inside the cover (figure 7.3.A page 69).
When the reel on the automatic rewinder is full, remove the film by unscrewing the knob (32) and taking away the disk
(33) (figure 7.3.B page 69).

7.4. Machine cleaning

To clean the upper hood (19), clean both the outside and the inside with water and soap only
(figure 7.4.A page 70).
Do not use any detergents with solvents which could damage the upper hood (19) and reduce the
transparency.
Use a cloth moistened with water to clean the machine.
If the machine works in a dusty environment it is necessary to clean it more frequently inside as well as outside. We
especially recommend you vacuum up the dust which settles on the interior electrical components. To open the
electrical unit remove the 4 fastening screws (34) (figure 7.4.B page 70).
