DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE INTENDED USE OF THE MACHINE; PERMITTED USE AND FORBIDDEN USE The MSP JET/T and MSP JET/TS models of spiral mixer are intended for use for mixing and blending various foodstuff ingredients (including water, flour, salt and yeast), in the conditions outlined in this manual, to obtain a homogeneous dough mass for production, using further work processes independent of the mixer, of bread and pastry products.
MAIN PARTS OF THE MACHINE The main parts composing the machine are (see Figure 1): ref. 1 base frame ref. 2 bowl ref. 3 spiral arm (mixing tool); based on the machine and panel ref. 7 supply, it can rotate at - two different speeds , identified with: speed 1 (lower) and speed 2 (higher) ref.

INSTALLATION AND USE WARNINGS FOR THE INSTALLATION PREMISES The location in which the machine will be held and/or used must comply with legislation in force to ensure adequate protection against atmospheric agents, as well as damage, deterioration, etc. The access routes must allow easy passage of the machine, without risk for personal safety and safety of the machine.
Page 15
Lift the machine gently, avoiding jolting and swinging; once lifted, it will tilt slightly forward, as shown in Figure 10/A; this is completely normal. Rest it gently on the ground on the lowest side, then gently lower it until it fully rests on all four points of the base planned for this purpose, which are: MSP40: no.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Every intervention of an electrical nature relevant to the workplace must be carried out by specialist and expert technicians who have the technical and legislative know-how to carry out works to standard and safely in compliance with legislation and standards in force; they should issue a possible Declaration of Conformity pursuant to legislation.

4. For routine use of the machine, the operator must wear safety shoes with reinforced caps; no further PPE are necessary, unless this necessity arises from the health and safety risk assessment which must be carried out by the employer (remember this assessment is compulsory, according to European Union legislation in force).
Page 18
wear shoes with a reinforced cap, waterproof gloves and an 10. When cleaning the machine, at least adequate dustproof mask (for the appropriateness of the mask, see the previous point 4). 11. To remove dough from the bowl, get into a comfortable and accessible position and rotate the bowl with the specific hold-down action, then sub-divide it into lightweight, small sized parts which would allow easy and safe handling.
Page 19
With the cycle concluded, lift the guard and remove the dough (see par. 3.4.1, point 11); with the specific hold-down command device (see par. 2.3) to facilitate the operation, you can rotate the bowl, if necessary with pulsed action, to bring the dough to the best position for the operator; remember that if the relevant command device is not held active (e.g.

MAINTENANCE FOREWORD Unless otherwise specified, the interventions described can be considered routine maintenance; any intervention not covered here must instead be considered special/extraordinary maintenance (for the definitions of routine and special/extraordinary maintenance, see par. 1.4); if in doubt, contact MACPAN SNC. ATTENTION! Unless otherwise indicated, each maintenance operation should only be carried out:...

4.3.1.1 DRIVE BELTS MOVING THE SPIRAL ARM (MSP JET/T) With reference to Figure 14, to adjust tensioning of the belts ref. 1: - loosen the four screws ref. 2, to allow sliding of the plate ref. 3 - with a hexagonal opening wrench, loosen the locking nuts ref. 4 and 5, as necessary - with a hexagonal opening wrench, turn the nut ref.
Page 22
4.3.1.2 DRIVE BELTS MOVING THE SPIRAL ARM (MSP JET/T) With reference to Figure 15 to adjust tensioning of the belts ref. 1: - loosen the four screws ref. 2, to allow sliding of the plate ref. 3 - with a hexagonal opening wrench, turn the screw ref. 4; by doing so, the plate ref. 3 moves supporting the motor with the pulley ref.
Page 23
4.3.2 TENSIONING ADJUSTMENT AND/OR REPLACEMENT OF THE DRIVE BELTS MOVING THE BOWL When carrying out the operations described in this paragraph and in the relevant sub-paragraphs, at least wear anti-abrasion gloves, safety shoes with reinforced cap and a safety helmet. With reference to Figure 16, to access the belts and the adjustment points, you must: - dismantle the panel ref.

DRIVE BELTS MOVING THE BOWL MSP JET/T AND MSP JET/TS FROM 80 TO 300 4.3.2.2 With reference to Figure 18 to adjust tensioning of the belts ref. 1: - with a hexagonal opening wrench, turn the blind nut ref. 4; by doing so, the plate ref. 3 moves which supports the motor ref.
4.4. REPLACING AND ADJUSTING THE BOWL PUSHING CASTORS AND RELEVANT SUPPORTS Whit reference to Figure 19, each of the two units push the bowl pusher (one per side of the machine). It is essentially composed of an idle roller ref. 1 and a support ref. 2; their function is to counter the force of the spiral arm under whose thrust the bowl ref.

2. Fixed guards: they are guards kept locked by fastening elements which cannot be dismantled without using equipment; if they are correctly assembled and fastened on the base, they particularly (but not only) make the drive units moving the spiral arm and the bowl inaccessible. In detail (see Figure 23): - the drive units moving the spiral arm are segregated using the guard ref.
5.2.3 EFFICIENCY CONTROLS ON SAFETY EQUIPMENT The efficiency and integrity of the safety equipment, described in par. 5.2.2, must be checked at the start of each day and/or work shift as follows: Check the mobile guard on the bowl and the relevant safety micro-switch. The check should be carried out with the bowl empty.
5.2.5 ELECTRICAL RISKS The closure panel of the box ref. 8 Figure 1 and any other shell containing live parts has a specific sign affixed to give a danger warning (see par. 5.3 The risk is mostly linked to any accidental contact (impossible in normal conditions) with live parts during the maintenance phases;...
