IMPORTANT INFORMATION
- This machine is not designed for
use by people (including chil-
dren) with reduced physical, sen-
sory or mental capabilities or
lacking the necessary experi-
ence or knowledge, unless they
have received supervision or
instructions from a health and
safety expert.
- This machine must not be left
running unsupervised.
- Before using the machine for the
first time, clean the area in con-
tact with food, the discs (A), the
grids (B) and the ejector (C) with
(lukewarm) soapy water, rinse
and leave to dry.
- Handle the discs (A) and grids
(B) very carefully because they
have very sharp blades.
- Before undertaking any cleaning,
inspection or repair work on veg-
etable preparation machines the
machine must be unplugged from
the mains.

EN
- NEVER insert your hand or any
other utensil through the outlets
or hoppers (J and K) that feed the
machine, to avoid accidents or
damages to the blades.
INSTALLATION
For optimum service and maintenance, please
follow these instructions.
INSTALLATION SITE
You are advised to install the machine on a
steady surface -this must not act as a sound-
board- elevated at a height of 700-900 mm for
CA-31, 600-800 mm for CA-41 and 500-700
mm for CA-62. Place the collector underneath
the food outlet. The machine is not fixed in place
Directive
and can be moved around easily.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check that the machine's electrical charac-
teristics match the mains power supply.
Single-phase machines: 230V / 50 Hz / 1; 220V
/ 60 Hz / 1; 120V / 60 Hz / 1.
Prepare a wall-mounted socket that is always
accessible, with a general disconnecting switch
and with a residual current and 2P, 16 A circuit
breaker, with its corresponding plug.
Three-phase machines: 230-400V / 50 Hz / 3N
(connected to 400V); 220-380V / 60 Hz / 3N
(connected to 220V).
Prepare a wall-mounted socket that is always
accessible, with a general disconnecting switch
and with a residual current and 2P, 10 A circuit
breaker, with its corresponding plug.
To change the voltage, refer to the electrical
diagram.
Direction of rotation: When the machine's direc-
tion of rotation is incorrect, the disc (A) will not
cut. The disc (A) must rotate anti-clockwise. If
the disc (A) rotates clockwise, to reverse it swap
two phases in the power cable.
Power cable characteristics.
Vegetable preparation machines CA-31, CA-
401 and CA-62 are supplied with a 1.5 m ther-
moplastic-sheathed power cable.
WARNING: THE EARTH CONNECTION IS
OBLIGATORY. DANGER OF ELECTROCUTION.
The machine's earth wire is yellow-green.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL FUNCTIONS AND
OPERATION
See Fig. 1.
"Machine connected to mains" warning light (1).
When the machine is plugged in, this warning
light switches on to show that the machine is
connected to the mains.
See Fig. 1.
"Start" button (3) or slow speed in the 2-
speed model.
CA-31 and CA-41:
- With the hinged lid (I) closed and the pusher plate
(L) down, if you push this button the motor starts.
In the 2-speed models it starts at slow speed.
- With the motor stopped, the hinged lid (I)
closed and the pusher plate (L) up, if you press
this button, the "safety" light (1) flashes. When
the pusher plate (L) is pressed down the motor
starts.
- With the motor stopped, the hinged lid (I)
closed and the pusher plate (L) up, if you press
this button, when the pusher plate is lowered
(L) the motor starts. In the 2-speed models the
pilot light "Speed 1" (5) flashes.
- With the motor on, if you lift the pusher plate
(L) the motor stops. When you lower the push-
er plate (L), the motor re-starts automatically.
If the pusher plate (L) has not lowered in 30
seconds, the "Start" button (3) must be
pressed again to start the machine.
- With the motor on, if the hinged lid (I) is opened
the motor stops. When the hinged lid
(I) is closed, the "Start" button (3) needs to be
pressed again to start the machine.
- If the machine is left running with the pusher
plate (L) down, after 30 minutes the machine
stops automatically.
CA-62 and header:
- If this button is pressed whilst the motor is
switched off, the hopper mounted and the
hinged lid (I) closed, the motor starts.
- If the hinged lid (I) should open whilst the motor
is in operation the motor will stop. When closing
the hinged lid (I) the pushbutton "On" (3) must
be pressed again in order to start the machine.
See Fig. 1.
"Speed 2" button (7). Fast speed. Only 2-
speed models.
The operation of this button is identical to that of
the "Start" button (3). The only difference is that
the machine starts at high speed.
See Fig 1.
"Stop" button (4).
This button stops the motor.
