5.8 Stopping the machine
To get the maximum service life from the cylinder coverings, use the following procedure to stop ironing.
1. Position the thermostat to 0 to cut off the heating.
2. Let the cylinder turn in contact with the bed for a few minutes so as to eliminate the moisture from the coverings.

User manual 13
3. Press completely down on the pedal to move back the bed.
4. Turn off the switch to stop the machine.
5. Turn off the main switch.
5.9 Releasing of the cylinder
In some conditions of humidity or static electricity, it may happen that the piece of linen being ironed winds around
the cylinder.
The cylinder can only rotate in one way; it is so, necessary in this precise case, to act on the machine.
1. Turn off the heating and stop the ironer.
2. Cut off the electrical supply by the main switch.
3. Remove the right lateral casing.
4. Unscrew and remove totally the knurled button (A) as well as the conical washer (B), the cylinder is now released.
5. Pull to you the piece of linen to unwind.
6. Make the cylinder turn slowly until seeing the threading of the knurled button.
7. Reassemble the conical washer (B) and the knurled button (A).
8. Reassemble the right lateral casing.
9. Rearm the main switch and start again the ironing.
6 Use recommendations
• Make sure that the fabric can be ironed, and check which temperature should be used.
• Take care with synthetic and printed fabrics as these can melt and stick to the tray.
• It is advisable to commence ironing with the most delicate fabrics finishing off with the most heat-resistant ones,
by progressively increasing the temperature with the thermostat button.
• When ironing small articles, use the entire width of the cylinder so that heat is evenly distributed, preventing wear
on only one side of the covering.
• Iron starched articles last, to prevent any eventual residue on the bed from damaging other items.
• Do not iron overly thick linen or covers.
• Do not iron non heat-resistant or overly voluminous buttons (round buttons, for example).
• Carefully inserting the articles to be ironed will improve results.
• Make sure that the width of the ironing does not exceed the useful width of the machine.
• When ironing small items, be sure to alternatively use the full width of the roller (and not simply the middle); this
prevents depressions from forming in the middle of the covering. This can effect the quality of the ironing (see fig-
ure below).
• When ironing is finished, let the cylinder turn for a few minutes to allow for the evaporation of any humidity ab-
sorbed during ironing.
• Let the bed move back before turning off the machine.

14 User manual
Important
It is very important that the machine is not running cold, the grip between the cylinder and the chest is too impor-
tant which can prematurely wear out the cylinder padding and deteriorate the free wheel. Failure to follow this
recommendation would void the warranty of the parts in question.
The outer padding being a consumable, it is normal to replace it periodically.
7 Safety devices
Finger safety system The space between the finger guard and the ironing cylinder does not allow fingers to pass
through. As soon as the device is triggered, the bed moves away and the cylinder stops.
Accessibility Housings can only be dismantled with a special tool.
Heating safety Two safety thermostats limit the temperature of the bed.
Electrical protective
devices
The motor is protected by a thermal contact. A fuse protects the machine’s electrical control
circuit (see installation manual).
Make sure the machine is disconnected from the mains before repairing or servicing.
Do not use the machine unless it is plugged into a correctly earthed power socket complying with standards in
force.
Warning
Any repairing or maintenance operation should be carried out by a specialist.
Important
The temperature of the ironing tray can, after use, reach 200 °C (392 °F) and, if touched, can cause serious
burns. Let the machine cool down before carrying out any repairs or servicing.
Important
Never iron if the mobile safety protector (hand protection bar) is not operating.

User manual 15
Warning
For your personal safety, never use the machine without the protective housings.
Danger
The presence of dangerous mechanisms inside the machine can cause serious injuries. Respect all safety in-
structions before doing any work on the machine. Replace protective casings after doing any work.
8 Operating faults
The heating works incorrectly or not at all
• Check the preselected temperature.
• Check the adjustment thermostat.
• Check the activation of the heating contactor.
• Check the intensity of the heating elements.
• Check heating element connections.
• Check the phases (voltage and intensities).
• Check and reset the safety thermostat (see figures below).
The machine suddenly stops
• Check the protective fuse.
• Check the electric power supply.
• Check the limit switches.
• Check the operating of the movement motor.
The temperature of the tray is too high
• Check the thermostat by measuring the temperature of the bed with a thermometer.
• Check that the thermostat’s sensor is in contact with the bed.
9 Maintenance
Caution
Disconnect the power supply and leave the ironing bed to cool down prior to any repair work or servicing.
To get the best results and optimum safety from your machine, observe all the servicing instructions.

16 User manual
Important
The bed has to be maintained with care so that the ironing is easy and of good quality.
The removal of detergent or fur deposits should be done as soon as these are prejudicial to the ironing quality.
The use of emery cloth or steel wool is strictly unadvised.
We recommend you to only use a 3M product such as Scotch-Brite Ref. CFR A MEDIUM (Art. no 35003153).
Each day
• Check finger guard operating. This safety device must be checked before each use. If the device is activated, the
cylinder should stop and the bed draw back. Press on the pedal to reactivate the ironing machine.
Every week
• Clean the ventilation grille of the movement motor and fan.
Every 6 months
• To obtain the best ironing results, it is essential that the covering of the cylinder is kept clean and in good condition.
• Wash the cotton cloth with hot water. Replace the cloth slightly damp without ironing it (see next page).
• Check the circumference of the cylinder (see next page). Clean the machine inside and out.
Every year
• Check thermostat operating.
• Check the heating elements, cables and connections.
• Lubricate the transmission chain (see lubrication table).
• The reducer requires no servicing because it is sealed and life-lubricated.
9.1 Replacing cylinder coverings
The cylinder is lined with steel wool, covered with a layer of felt and a layer of cotton material.
1. Stop the machine with the bed in back position.
2. Remove the right lateral casing.
3. Unscrew and remove totally the knurled button (A) and the conical washer (B), the cylinder is now released.
4. Untie the drawstrings at both ends of the cylinder.
5. Pull on the cotton padding to unroll it from the cylinder.
6. Do the same with the felt padding.
7. Reassemble the conical washer (B) and the knurled button (A).
8. Fit in a new felt padding as if it was a piece to iron, putting it edge to edge with the steel wool.
9. Turn manually the cylinder to wind the padding on half a turn.
10.Switch on the machine and turn the cylinder by pressing on the control treadle.
11. During this operation, the felt padding has to be stretched from the beginning to the end of the rolling-up.
12.Let the cylinder turn against the chest for 5 to 10 minutes in order for the felt padding to set up correctly.

User manual 17
13.Wash the cotton covering in hot water.
14.Replace the slightly damp cloth without ironing it.
15.Then, fit in the cotton cloth centring it on the cylinder as if it was a piece to iron, introducing it under the felt pad-
ding for about 10 cm.
16.Turn the cylinder to roll-up the cotton cloth.
17.Stop the machine, pull on the gather braids, tie them up correctly and fit them under the cotton cloth at the end of
the cylinder. • Leave the cylinder heated turn for about one hour to run in the padding.
18.Check the diameter of the cylinder using a measuring tape.
19.The circumference of the cylinder should measure between: 690 mm minimum - 730 mm maximum.
Note!
If the steel wool lining is to be replaced, call on an after-sales service technician.
9.2 Care instructions for the NOMEX textile
The quality MNF/F3 NOMEX textile (option) can be washed with neutral detergents at 60 °C, whereby heavy or long
mechanical effects should be avoided.
For de-watering, the textile should either only short extraction or be hung up to let it drip off. The textile is fitted onto
the ironer in a damp condition and with light pressure and heating.
10Symbols
Caution.
Caution, presence of dangerous current.
Caution, hot surface.
