instruction
Environmental information
Concerned by providing the end user with useful and necessary environmental information,
we wish to precise :
•Data about energetic consumptions, wastes (atmospheric and liquid) and sound level are
indicated in the paragraph "Technical characteristics".
•Forseeing its recycling, this machine is fully dismantable.
•This machine is free from any asbestos.
•In conformity with French regulations:
- Law No. 76-663 of July 19th 1976
- Decree No. 77-1133 of September 21st 1977
- The decree of 7th July 1992
- The decree of 29th December 1993
- The decree of 28th December 1999
- No. 2311 of the nomenclature for classified installations
Commercial linen cleaning laundries and launderettes are subject to:
- prefectural authorisation if the washing capacity exceeds five tonnes per day.
- a declaration to the prefecture if the washing capacity exceeds 500 kilos per day but is
below or equal to five tonnes per day.
•In application of the Law of 15 July 1975 and the decrees of 01 April and 13 July 1994 on
the disposal of industrial and commercial packing waste «All owners of packing waste
producing a weekly volume below 1100 litres can forward these to the local collection and
treatment department. If exceeding this volume, the owners of packing waste will ensure
their valuation by reuse, recycling or, any other action aiming at producing reusable
materials or energy... or provide them contractually to a certified intermediate authorised
to transport, trade or broke waste».
Therefore, these texts forbid:
- land filling raw waste
- open air burning or incineration without energy collection.
•Packaging of our machines are according with the provisions of decree 98-638 from July
20 1998 related to environment requirements.
For additional information, do not hesitate to consult with our environmental department.

3. Handling
WARNING
It is obligatory that all these
operations are undertaken by
handling specialists.
Lifting with a fork-lift truck
The machine is delivered secured on a
transport pallet.

You should have found this instruction handbook and eight coathangers.
Please refer to the handling chapter in this instruction handbook for a description of handling
operations.
Unpacking
Release the machine from its packing.
Check that no damage has been
caused during transport.
If any damage is found, it must
immediately be reported to the
transport company.
Carefully lower the machine off the pallet,
tipping it backwards enough to be able to
remove the pallet.
Then install the machine in its place.

Installation
The installation must be done by compe-
tent technicians in accordance with local
codes and regulations. When there is no
local code or regulation, the installation
must be comply with european stan-
dards applicable.
The machine must be installed on a hori-
zontal and f rm f oor, capable of suppor-
ting its weight.
Place the machine so that it is easy for
the user and the service technician to do
their work.
• According to the recommendation
in standard EN 60204, the distance
between the machine and the wall or
any other machines behind it must be
at least 1000 mm.
Mechanical installation
Carefully level the machine using a spi-
rit-level on the base of the machine, and
ensure that it is resting f rmly.
Retrieve the sole nose with its 2 f xing
lugs and f xing screws.
Screw the 2 f xing lugs onto the sole plate
(standard or long).
Screw the assembly to the front and the
bottom of the machine.
Working place lighting
The lighting should be designed so as to avoid eye strain for the operator; it should be uni-
form without any glare, and should be suff cient to detect any hazards.
The average lighting value on the feeding table recommended by the clothing industry for
inspecting linen is 300 lux.
Whenever possible, the working place should be illuminated by daylight.

Gas connection
CAUTION
The installation, connection and gas arrival adjustments for the
machine must be done by qualified personnel only.
The customer must install a filter and a manual stop valve on the supply side of the
machine if NATURAL GAS is used.
For BUTANE 28-30 mbar or PROPANE 37 or 50 mbar, the customer must install a
filter, a manual closing valve and a pressure reducer.
Check that the diameter of injectors is adequate for the king of gas of your installation (see
table). The machine is delivered with extra injectors in a plastic envelope. There is also a
sheet metal plate with a cork joint or an adjusting head to feed the machine with another gas.
Connect the installation at the exchanger DN 20 (¾" BSP).

6. Installation/
Putting into service
If the machine is connected to gas mains of 300 mbar or directly behind a gas bottle, it is
vital that a pressure reducing valve be added as close as possible to the machine.
If the gas inlet pressure (P1) is identical to the nominal pressure of the machine (P2), it is
possible to insert a reservoir as close as possible to the machine in order to protect against
any falls in pressure when the machine starts up.

The machine is adjusted at the plant to be suitable for the kind of gas specified on the order.
If you have to supply your machine with gas in a family different from the gas for which your
machine was adjusted, proceed as follows.
Testing pressures
According to the EN 437 standard, the values of the testing pressures mentioned in our
various documents are values for static pressure taken at the gas inlet connection of the
machine ; the heating of the machine being on.
Changing to a gas in the same family (type H or L)
• Change the injector and its joint and if necessary do the air adjustment (see tables of
correspondences).
Changing to a gas in a different
family (from type H or L to
propane)
• Change the injector and its joint (see
tables of correspondences).
• Unscrews the fixing screws (V) and
remove the adjusting head (J) as well
as its cork (T), keep these parts in
case a change would by necessary.
• Replace it by the cork (L) and the plate
(P).
• Screw the two screws and block.
Changing a gas from one family to
another (from propane to type H or

• Change the injector and its joint (see
tables of correspondences).
• Unscrews the fixing screws (V) and

pressure tapping (F).
4- Remove the pressure regulator cap
(D).
5- Using a screwdriver, slowly turn the
adjustment screw until the required
pressure (P) is indicated on manometer
(see tables on the following pages).
Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to
increase and counter-clockwise to
decrease gas pressure.
6- Reset the pressure regulator cap,
close off the gas inlet, remove the

Check-out
Before leaving, put the appliance into operation and allow to run a
complete cycle. Watch to ensure that all burner system components
function correctly.
IMPORTANT
Tightness test after installation
The gas leak test is performed as follows :
1/ Paint pipe joints, pilot gas tubing connections and inspect outlets
with rich soap and water solution ; do not use an aggressive soap.
2/ Put the machine into service. Bubbles indicate a gas leak.
3/ Eliminate this leak.
NOTE : After all intervention, re-seal (red varnish) the following
adjustment organs :
- regulator of pressure.
In case of changing of gas, the stick for the adjustment has to be
modified.
