FOREWORD
INSTRUCTIONS HANDBOOK
Editing this handbook, it was taken into due account community directions on safety standards
as well as on free circulation of industrial products within E.C.
PURPOSE
This handbook was edited while taking users' needs into due account.
Topics relevant to a correct use of the machine have been analyzed in order to keep unchanged in
the long run quality features characterizing CATTABRIGA machines throughout the world.
A significant part of this handbook refers to the conditions required to the machine use and mainly
to the behaviour to be held during routine and special maintenance.
Nevertheless, this handbook cannot meet in details all demands; in case of doubts or failing
information, please apply to:

HANDBOOK STRUCTURE
This handbook is structurilized in sections, chapters and subchapters in order to consult it more
easily.
Section
A section is the part of handbook identifying a specific topic referred to a machine part.
Chapter
A chapter is that part of section describing a group or concept relevant to a machine part.
Subchapter
It is that part of a chapter detailing the specific component of a machine part.
It is necessary that each person involved in the machine running reads and clearly understands
those parts of the handbook of own concern, and particularly:
•The Operator must have a look at chapters concerning the machine start-up and the operation
of machine groups.
•A skilled technician employed in installation, maintenance, repair, etc., must read all parts of
this handbook.
ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION
Along with an instruction manual, each machine is also supplied complete with further docu-
mentation:
•Machine equipment: a list of spare parts delivered together with the machine for its mainte-
nance.
•Wiring diagram: a diagram of wiring connections put into the machine.
CAUTION
Before carrying out any operation, please read this instructions manual.
Read safety instructions, carefully.

SAFETY
When using industrial equipment and plants, one must be aware of the fact that drive mechanisms,
high voltage components, as well as parts subject to high temperatures may cause serious dam-
ages to persons and things.
Who is in charge of plant safety must be on the look-out that:
- an uncorrect use or handling is avoided;
-safety devices are neither be removed nor tampered;
-service is regularly carried out;
-only areoriginal spare parts used especially as far as those components with safety functions
are concerned (ex.: protection microswitches, thermostats);
- that appropriate individual protection equipment is used.
To achieve the above, the following is necessary:
- At working place an instruction manual relevant to the machine should be available.
- Such documentation must be carefully read and prescriptions must consequently be fol-
lowed.
- Only must adequately skilled personnel be assigned to electrical equipment.
STAFF QUALIFICATION
Staff attached to the machine can be distinguished according to training and responsibility as fol-
lows:
OPERATOR
•A person whohas not necessarilya high technical knowledge,just trained forordinary operation
of the machine, such as: startup, stop, filling, basic maintenance (cleanout, simple blocking,
instrumentation checkings, etc.).
SKILLED ENGINEER
- A person engaged on more complicated operations of installation, maintenance, repairs, etc.
IMPORTANT!
One must be on the look-out that the staff does not carry out any operation outside its own
sphere.
NOTE:
According to the standard at present in force, a SKILLED ENGINEER is who, thanks to:
•training, experience and education,
•knowledge of rules, prescriptions and interventions on accident prevention,
•knowledge of machine operating conditions,
is able to realize and avoid any danger and has also been allowed by the person in charge of
plant safety to carry out all kinds of interventions.
WARNING
When installing the machine, insert a differential magnetothermal protection switch on all poles of
the line, adequately sized to the absorption power shown on machine data plate and with contact
opening of 3 mm at least.
- Never put your hands into the machine, alike during production and cleaning operations.
Before carrying out any maintenance operation, make sure that the machine is in “STOP”
position and main switch has been cut out.
- It is forbidden to wash the machine by means of a bolt of water under pressure.
- It is forbidden to remove panels in order to reach the machine inside before having discon-
nected the machine.
- CATTABRIGAis not responsible for any accident that might happen during operation, clean-
ing and/or servicing of its units, if this warning has not been fully complied with.

CONVENTIONAL SYMBOLS
ATTENTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK DANGER
The staff involved is warned that the inobsevance of safety rules in carrying out the operation
described may cause an electric shock.
ATTENTION: GENERAL DANGER
The staff involved is warned that the operation described may do harm if not carried out in the
observarnce of safety rules.
NOTE
It points out significant information for the staff involved.
WARNING
The staff involved is warned that the inobservance of information may cause a loss of data and
damages to the machine.
MACHINE OPERATOR
It deals with an unskilled person , who has no specific competences and can only carry out easy
functions, such as the machine operation by means of controls available on push-button panel ,
and filling and drain of products used during production.
MAINTENANCE ENGINEER
He is a skilled engineer for operation of the machine under regular conditions; he is able to carry
out interventions on mechanical parts and all regulations, as well as maintenance and repairs. He
is qualified for interventions on electrical and freezing plants.
CATTABRIGA ENGINEER
It deals with a skilled engineer the manufacturer puts at clients' disposal for complicated in-
terventions und particular conditions or anyhow in accordance with agreements taken with the
machine's user.
PROTECTIONS
This symbol placed by description side means that the operator must use personal protections
against an implicit risk of accident.

1. RECEIPT, MOVEMENT, UNPACKING
1.1 RECEIPT
• Before unpacking the machine, check that packing shows no external damages due to colli-
sions during transportation.
• An external damage could mean the machine itself is damaged: in this case, immediately apply
to insurance company and leave everything as it was on reception.
1.1.1 Lifting a packed machine
To lift the packing, insert lift forks into the space between pallet feet, so as to balance the machine
weight and consequently packing barycenter.
1.2 UNPACKING
Wooden packing can be opened with proper tools.
1. Remove the nails starting from the upper side until the machine still
secured to the pallet (board) ist left uncovered.
2. Remove protection sheet wrapping the machine.
3. Check that the machine has not been damaged during transporta-
tion.
Board packing is closed by steel straps on outside.
1. Cut the straps with snips, while keeping one end with your hands.
2. Withdraw the packing upwards.
3. Remove poystyrene and polypropylene bag protecting the ma-
chine.
4. Cut the straps securing the machine.
CAUTION
Protect your hands with gloves as one may hurt with splinters or
when cutting the straps if these are not strongly held.

1.1.2 Forbidden material handling equipment
Material handling equipment not in compliance with following safety characteristics must never
be used:
•Lifting capacity lower than machine weight
•Unsuitable construction features of the lift (ex.: too short forks)
•Construction features altered by use
•Unconforming ropes and cables
•Worn ropes or cables.

1.4 DISPOSAL OF PACKING STUFFS
When opening the packing crate, divide packing stuffs per type and get rid of them according to
laws in force in machine installation country.
1.5 WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)
In conformity with the European Directives 2006/66/EC and 2002/96/EC, also known as WEEE,
the presence of the symbol on the side of the product or packaging means that the product must
not be disposed of with normal urban waste.
Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of this product by returning it to a collection point
designated for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment waste. Separate collection of
this waste helps to optimize the recovery and recycling of any reclaimable materials and also
reduces the impact on human health and the environment.
For more information concerning the correct disposal of this product, please contact your local
authority or the retailer where this product was purchased.
1.3 STORING A MACHINE
The machine must be stored in a dry and dump-free place.
Before storing it, wrap the machine in a cloth in order to protect it against dust and else.
IMPORTANT:
When storing a packed machine, never place a crate on another.
NO!
