Chapter 3 Safety regulations 16. Do not put fingers and/or objects in the machine slots or holes. 17. Do not use the machine with damp or wet hands. 18. Always wear suitable gloves and a hair cover for hygiene. 19. Pay maximum attention to all caution and danger signs on the machine. 20.
3.2 Safety devices present on the machine The term safety device refers to: “a component specially designed by the manufacturer and also sold separately from the machine in order to be able to perform safety functions. Therefore, a safety component will be considered a device whose failure to function compromises the safety of exposed persons.
Chapter 3 Safety regulations 3.2.3 Safety symbols and stickers On the machine there are symbols/stickers for highlighting: what you must not do, important information and warnings: This symbol indicates the presence of an electric shock hazard. It indicates to the relevant personnel that they risk an electric shock if they do not work in compliance with safety regulations.
4 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 4.1 General requirements INSTALLATION MUST ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED TECHNICAL PERSONNEL. Once the package is near to the machine installation location, cut the straps (A) and remove the cardboard (B) by pushing it upwards. Remove the documents and accessories located on the outside of the machine.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.3 Spaces needed for use of the machine The machine must be positioned on a solid, level and even floor. It must not be directly exposed to sunlight or near to heat sources. Keep the machine air inlets clear to allow adequate air circu- lation around it.
4.5 Electricity supply WORK ON ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED TECHNICAL PERSONNEL. The machine must be powered at the voltage shown on the data plate at the top of the rear panel. Connect the machine only to a power supply using a suitable earth connection. The machine is supplied with a power cable to which a qualified technician must connect a plug suitable for the technical data (voltage, current) on the data plate.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.6 Air-cooled machine Air-cooled machines must be installed with a minimum distance from the rear wall of at least 500 mm to allow free circulation of condensation air. Every day, clean the area around the machine to prevent foreign bodies (for example: build-up of dust, bits of paper, etc.) from blocking the regular inflow of air.
5 MACHINE OPERATION 5.1 Controls The control panel functions are illustrated below: ON/OFF button For switching the machine on and off. The digital display (2) shows the temperature of the cylinder. Power LED Power ON light. When lit the LED indicates that the machine is supplied with electricity.
Page 28
Chapter 5 Using the machine 7. “TEMPERATURE-BASED CYCLE” button Button for starting a machine “temperature”-based operating cycle. When the cycle is ON the warning light (7a) in the button is lit. When this button is pressed the mixer in the cylinder and the machine cooling system are switched on automatically.
5.2 Switching on and starting the machine EVERY DAY, WHEN YOU SWITCH ON THE MACHINE, CHECK THAT THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE OPERATING CORRECTLY AS DESCRIBED IN DETAIL IN SECTION 7.5 OF THIS MANUAL. Connect the machine power cable to a socket and check that the power LED (1) is lit.
Chapter 5 Using the machine 5.3. Programming DURING ITS FACTORY INSPECTION, THE MACHINE HAS BEEN PROGRAMMED WITH OPTIMAL TIME AND TEMPERATURE PARAMETER VALUES FOR THE OPERATION CYCLES. DO NOT CHANGE PROGRAMMING UNLESS IT IS STRICTLY NECESSARY. IF PARAMETER VALUES DO NEED TO BE ALTERED, MAKE ANY NECESSARY MACHINE PRO- GRAMMING CHANGES BEFORE STARTING PRODUCTION.
5.3.1 Adjusting the temperature-based cycle (P1) ▪ Having pressed the + Programming/Adjustment button (B), the P1 code appears on the digital display. ▪ A few seconds after the code P1 flashes on the display, a numer- ical value indicating the cooling temperature set appears on the display.
Chapter 5 Using the machine 5.3.3 Adjusting the buzzer (P3) ▪ When the code P3 flashes on the display, you can modify the du- ration of the buzzer at the end of the production cycle. The factory set value is 10 seconds. ▪...
▪ Several seconds after entering the operating time, the display □□ shows two zeroes again “ ”. Now you can set a numerical value corresponding to the mixer pause time. ▪ Use the adjustment buttons (C) and (D) to set the mixer pause time.
Page 34
Chapter 5 Using the machine - Before starting the production check that the extraction door is closed and pour the pasteurised mixture or the pre-packaged food products in the cylinder. Note: The suitable quantity of product which can be pro- cessed is indicated in sec.
5.4.1 Modifying the cooling temperature with the temperature-based cycle started If, during the processing cycle, you want to modify the cooling temperature, this can be done by accessing the programming section. Follow the instructions in section 5.3.1 of this manual. –...
Chapter 5 Using the machine - At the end of processing, that is to say, when the churning time set has elapsed, the operator is alerted by a buzzer. Once the cycle has ended the cooling system switches off automatically whilst the clockwise mixing of the mixer continues to prevent the formation of ice on the sides of the cylinder.
5.6 Temperature-based cycle granita production Granita can only be made using a temperature-based cycle. You can set the mixer to operate with intermittent motion and clockwise rotation, with pause times, expressed in seconds. THE RECOMMENDED COOLING TEMPERATURE FOR MAKING GRANITA IS -2°C. MODIFY THE COOLING TEMPERATURE SET IN THE MACHINE.
Chapter 6 Washing 6 WASHING 6.1 Rinse or complete wash When switching from one production cycle to another, a simple rinse or a “complete” wash may be needed, depending on the ingredients or the types of mixes used. The washing methods can be summarised as follows: 1) No washing: for recipes using products that are com- patible with each other, with no fats and strong flavours THERE IS NO NEED FOR WASHING between one...

– Check that the extraction door is closed, open the machine cover (A) and pour in a solution of hot water at 50° C and de- tergent until the cylinder is ¼ full. Note: Use a specific food-safe detergent, normally alka- line.
Chapter 6 Washing 6.2 End of day washing and sanitising Sanitising includes all of those activities intended to make the inner surface of the cylinder and the removable components that come into contact with foods hygienic. Aims of sanitising: - To remove all traces of product residues - To reduce the microbial load without leaving chemical residues of the products used on the surface treated.

3. R InSInG PhASE TO REmOVE dETERGEnT After washing with detergent, a thorough rinse of the processing cylinder with cold water is needed to completely remove any detergent residues still present in it. - Position the special water collecting basin (A) under the prod- uct extraction door chute and use a container of water (C) or the shower (optional) to rinse the cylinder.
Page 44
Chapter 6 Washing c) Refitting the components: After washing, re-fit all of the machine components as described below: • Re-fitting the mixer scrapers - Position the paddle scrapers (7) on the mixer and use a suit- able tool (hex socket screwdriver) (8) to partially tighten the fixing screws (9), so that the position of the paddles inside the cylinder can be adjusted afterwards.
Page 45
• Re-fitting the extraction door chute - Insert the chute gasket (11) in its seat. - Position the chute (10) below the extraction door and secure it by tightening the clamp screw (9) to the front panel.
