the use of the machine is allowed exclusively to authorized staff properly trained. Do not allow
unauthorized people and especially children to get near the machine.

Before starting the machine, the operator must check the presence of clear faults on the safety
devices and on the machine and immediately report what found to the person in charge.

The only working position suitable for the operator is the fabric loading position, that is behind
the fixed safety bar. Do not occupy other positions different from the above mentioned one
during the machine functioning.

Never start the machine before having advised and averted anyone present nearby it.

Do not use the machine while wearing clothes, ornaments or accessories which can get caught on
any moving part. Gather up long hairs under a cap. Wear clothes which allow to bear objects and
tools in closed pockets.

The machine user must know the safety devices installed on it, as well as the respective proper
modalities of use. Check daily the proper functioning of the emergency buttons and of the safety
devices. Never use the machine without its safety devices properly installed and working.

Pay the maximum attention to every danger and prohibition symbol existing on the machine.

Keep every plate with danger and prohibition symbols in perfect conditions, clearly visible and
readable. In case of tear replace them quickly.

MOVING – STORAGE – DISPOSAL
WARNING! Any machine transport, moving and storage operation described in this
chapter must be carried out exclusively by qualified staff having suitable knowledge
to operate safely forklift trucks, crane trucks and anything else necessary to the
purpose

• MOVING

To avoid that any part may hurt the persons in case of machine fall, be sure that during the lifting
and moving operations there are no persons inside the action range of the lifting machines.

To lift up and move the machine it is necessary to use suitable means of transport according to its
weight.

Before starting moving the machine, check its stability.

• STORAGE

In case of long storage, keep the machine in a dry place, sheltered from rain and wind.

Protect well the electrical parts from the dust and from external agents.

The machine may suffer heavy damages if, while waiting for the installation, it is kept in
environments with critical temperatures. Never expose it to temperatures lower that –10° C and
higher than +60°C.

Do not deposit the machine or its parts in structures which have not been suitably built.

It is forbidden to put on the machine any material or equipments.

• DEMOLITION AND DISPOSAL

The disposal of the waste which comes out from the machine demolition must be carried out
respecting the environment, avoiding to pollute the ground, the air and the water.

For a proper disposal it is necessary to respect the local laws in force.

MOVING AND TRANSPORTATION

• LIFTING

WARNING :
The lifting operation must be carried out with the maximum care and by AUTHORIZED STAFF only.

During the lifting operations no unauthorized people are allowed to stand nearby.
To lift up and to position the machine use a forklift truck of proportionate dimensions and sturdiness.
Insert the forklift under the machine, be sure to take it for the entire width, fasten it well with belts
or ropes and lift it paying attention that it doesn’t tilt on one side.

• PACKAGE

The kind of package may be different according to the machine, the mean of transport and the
destination.
In a wooden crate in case of transport by sea or by air.
Wrapped in a protection film to be transported with road vehicles.

• AIR NOISE UTTERED BY THE MACHINE

The machine described in this manual does not represent a risk factor itself as the peak level of the
acoustic pressure on the workplace is minimum.
Therefore the possible high level of acoustic pressure existing in the environment where the machine
runs cannot be charged to it.

The weighed acoustic pressure level on the working station does not exceed 70 dB(A)

9
USE OF THE MACHINE
After having unpacked the machine put it in its working place in a flat and stable position.

• MINIMUM DISTANCES FOR A PROPER MAINTENANCE

Leave a free space of at least 50 cm on each side of the machine

It is extremely dangerous to use the machine without its safety devices (emergency button, belt
protection and so on). Never use the machine without the safety devices.

The safety devices removal is allowed exclusively during the machine maintenance and must be
done exclusively buy specialized staff.

10
 • CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM

Connect the power cable to the socket.

WARNING:
Be sure that the power tension corresponds to the one indicated by the manufacturer in the
specifications written on this manual.

Be sure to connect properly the earth cable. If the connection of the earth is not safe, there could be
the risk to get an electric shock and some problems with the correct machine functioning could
occur.

Use the machine in areas electric/electromagnetic noise sources free. Such disturbs could cause
problems to the correct machine running.

In case of lightning or electric storms, switch off the machine and disconnect the power cable from
the socket to avoid functioning problems or damages to the machine.

• CONNECTION TO THE PNEUMATIC SYSTEM

Connect the air pipe to the quick pipe fitting located on the pressure governor, let the air in and
check that the air gauge signals a maximum pressure as described in the specifications.
If necessary adjust the pressure on the correct value by lifting and turning the knob of the pressure
governor clockwise to increase it or anticlockwise to reduce it.
Block the knob when the air gauge indicates a correct pressure.
