THE IMPORTANCE OF THE MANUAL
Before using the machine, the authorized operators must read and understand this
manual in all its parts. This manual of “use and maintenance instructions” was drawnup
according to the provisions foreseen by the “MachineryDirective” 2006/42/EC in
order to assume an easy and correctcomprehension of the contents handled by the authori-
sedoperators. Therefore, it must always be placed, well guardedand preserved, near the the
machine.
This manual is integral part of the machine and must be preserved for future reference until dis-
posal of the same. This manual must always be available for the charged operators and has to
be placed well stored and preserved near to the machine.
The manufacturer cannot be made liable fordamages to persons, ani-
mals and things, due to the inobservance of the standards and of the
instructions described in this manual.
The manual has compulsorily to be delivered togetherwith the machine,
in case this latter is transferred to another user.
This manual meets the state of art when the machine is traded and can-
not be considered improper just because following to new experiences
it can then be updated.
In case of loss or wear of the manual, equest a newcopy from the ma-
nufacturer or authorised dealer specifying the model of the machine
and the revision quoted on the cover.

ADDRESSEES
This technical manual is destined exclusively to authorised operators charged with the use and
maintenance of the machine according to the specific technical and professional competences
required for the type of intervention involved. The symbols here below are placed at the begin-
ning of a paragraph and indicate the operator involved in the handed topic.
The authorised operators must perform on the machine only the inter-
ventions of their specific competence. Before performing any interven-
tion on the machine, the authorised operators must make sure they are
in full possession of their physical and psychological abilities in order to
assure at any time the respect of the safety conditions.
CHARGED OPERATOR: This is an operator being at least 18 years old (private user or
worker), who, in compliance with the provisions of the laws in force in the country of
use on safety and health in work places, can perform exclusively the switching-on, use
and switching-off of the machine in full observance of the instructors container in the manual,
being equipped with the personal protection equipment.
MECHANICAL / PNEUMATIC MAINTENANCE ENGINEER: This is the trained tech-
nical engineer qualified to perform exclusively interventions on the mechanical /
pneumatic parts in order to carry out adjustment, maintenance and/or repair proce-
dures even with disabled protections in full observance of the instructions contained in this ma-
nual or in any other specific document exclusively supplied by the manufacturer, being equip-
ped with the personal protection equipment.
ELECTRICAL MAINTENANCE ENGINEER: This is a trained technical engineer quali-
fied to perform intervention exclusively on electrical devices in order to carry out ad-
justment, maintenance and or repair procedures also with live voltage and with disab-
led protections in full observance of the instructions contained in this manual or in another
specific documents exclusively supplied by the manufacturer, being equipped with the personal
protection equipment.
COMPANY SAFERY MANAGER: This is a qualified technical engineer, appointed by
the employer (in case the machine is used in a company), meeting the technical and

SAFETY WARNINGS
APPLIED SAFETY DEVICES
1.SAFETY VALVE: this is a certified safety valve (calibrated on 10,5 bar), installed on the pneu-
matic plant under the pressure switch. It is used to discharge the overpressure of the plant, when
the pressure switch does not work due to possible malfunctions. The tripping of the safety valve
obliges the operator to switch off the machine and require the intervention of the maintenance
technical engineers.
2.PRESSURE SWITCH: this is an elector-pneumatic device (calibrated on min. 7 bar and max.
10 bar) installed on the pneumatic plant. It is used to command the automatic start of the ma-
chine, when the operation pressure falls under 7 bar, as well as the automatic stop when the
operation pressure reaches 10 bars.
3.FIXED PROTECTION GRATING OF THE COOLING FAN : This is affixed protection made
up of a grating in plastic material fastened by screws to the base of the bi-cylindrical pumping
assembly. It is used to avoid accidental contact with the moving cooling fan.
4.RESTORABLE THERMAL SWITCH: this is a thermal protection installed on the electric plant,
stopping the electric motor in case of current overload and/or short-circuit. The restoration can
be performed by the related push-button.
5.TANK PRESSURE GAUGE: this is a measuring device installed on the machine tank. It displays
the compressed air pressure present within the tank.
6.PRESSURE GAUGE AT OUTPUT: this is a measuring device installed on the machine pneu-
matic plant upstream of the fast air outlet tap. It displays the output pressure, which is adjustable
through the proper pressure regulator (0 ÷ 10 bar).
It is strictly forbidden to tamper, disconnect and/or remove any safety
device existing in the machine.
It is strictly forbidden to replace any safety device or any of their com-
ponents with not original spare parts.
It is compulsory to constantly check the correct operation of all safety
devices installed on the machine.
It is compulsory to immediately replace any safety device malfunctio-
ning and/or being damaged.
