compressor, sealing valve, air extraction and nitrogen injection valves so that all the operations take
place in the right order and with the right timing.
The filling machine has been designed for use by qualified personnel, given that it could constitute a
source of danger to people. Do not leave the machine unsupervised when in use.
The machine should be placed on a firm, flat surface and blocked in place using the brakes on the
front castors.
2.1 PRELIMINARY CHECK The machine is supplied packaged and placed on a pallet, ready for
use. Once you have removed the packaging make sure that all the components are intact and inform
the supplier, if necessary, of any evident defects. Together with the machine you’ll receive this
instruction manual which forms an essential part of the same.
Check manually that the filling arm is not blocked, and if necessary free it of any obstacles
preventing its movement.
2.2 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK: Before connecting up the machine make sure that the mains
voltage corresponds to that of the machine, as indicated on the data plate of the pump motor.
The electrical safety of this machine is only ensured if it is connected to a functioning earthing
connection system, installed in conformity with current electrical regulations. Checking and
installation of relevant electrical components must be performed by qualified personnel. The use of
multiple plugs or adaptors is not recommended; should the use of such be indispensable only use
products conforming to current safety standards, observing the current capacity and maximum power
limits shown
2.3 INSTALLATION. Position the machine on firm ground beside the wine storage tank and block it
in place using the brakes on the front castors.
Then connect the pump to the tank using the decanting tube. The tubes should be of the rigid and
reinforced type, and should be attached to the pump using hose clamps for the purpose, making sure
that there are no bottlenecks which might prevent the regular flow of liquid.
It is important to use the hose clamps in that they ensure the correct functioning of the pump and
prevent leaks of liquid which might cause damage to the pump itself or to those surrounding it.
One of the standard fittings installed on the pump is a hose connection fitting for tubes of d.20; upon
request the pump can be supplied with a hose connection fitting of d.30. The use of decanting tubes
of dimensions other than those indicated is not recommended in that they might impair the proper
functioning of the machine.
Proceed by checking that the switch on the control panel is in the central “0” position, and connect
the power supply cable of the control panel to the electricity socket.
At this point the compressor should start to move; if it does not, open the air release tap situated
above the compressor and close it again as soon as the compressor starts. If the compressor still fails
to start check the values indicated on the pressure gauges situated on the compressor and if they
indicate zero press the start button on the front of the compressor itself.
The compressor stops on its own as soon as it reaches the pressure in the tank. (with reference to the
maintenance operations of the compressor see the attached compressor manual).
Open the valve or the tap which the decanting tube is connected to, so as to enable the tubes to fill up
partially.

For the correct functioning of the machine and verification of filling precision a scales or
graduated recipient is needed.
The parameter used to adjust the filling is “CONTALITRI, K FACTOR» while the “CORREZIONE
LITRI ” parameter is for the fine-adjustment of filling.
The K factor expresses a measure of “steps” used by the sensor to measure 1 litre of liquid decanted.
This factor varies in relation to the type of fluid to be decanted, the type of pump used, the length and
diameter of the tubes and the pressure exerted by the liquid inside the tubes. At the moment of
purchase of the machine the K value is set at 160; this value should be INCREASED if the weight of
the bag being filled is less than the theoretical weight of the quantity to be filled. Vice versa it should
be REDUCED if the weight of the bag being filled is more than the theoretical weight to be filled.
3. ADJUSTMENT
DIS. 16
DIS. 17

The adjustment of the K factor depends on the size of error: only adjust this parameter if the error
is more than ± 500 g. In these cases adjust the K value by 5 to 10 units, repeat the filling procedure
and check the weight obtained.
If the error is less than 500 g, the “COR.O” parameter should be adjusted: increasing this value
(and therefore attributing a positive value to it), the quantity of liquid in the bag is increased vice
versa decreasing such value (and therefore attributing a negative value to it), the quantity of liquid in
the bag is decreased
N.B. to set negative values press the “C” button, and the symbol “-“ will appear on the display, then
set the desired value.
The size of this parameter must always be less than that of the K factor set, in that otherwise it is
better to adjust the K factor and make slight corrections using the COR parameter. In this case too the
variations to apply depend on the size of the error, but should always be 5/10 units at each attempt.
4.1 FIRST USAGE AND WASHING
Before beginning filling THE FIRST TIME THE MACHINE IS USED preliminary washing of the
machine is recommended to remove any manufacturing residues and to sanitise the tubes.
With the machine turned off and unplugged, fit the stainless steel adaptor onto the prong holding
the bags, and attach a tube to the hose connection blocking it in place with appropriate hose clamps.
Fit a tube onto the decanting pump. Close the by-pass of the decanting pump (turn it to a
perpendicular position in relation to the body of the pump). Immerse the tubing in a recipient
containing 20 litres of disinfectant solution (we recommend citric acid) or clean water, so as to create
a circuit.
Now plug in the control panel to the electricity supply and turn on the machine.
Select the parameter SANIFICAZIONE, and then the option LAVAGGIO.
Lower the filling head so as to insert it inside the inox adaptor (it is supplied with the machine) and
press the START button. The decanting pump will begin to function and the liquid will go into the
tubes coming out a few seconds later from the drainage tube previously installed. Press STOP to
arrest the cleaning .
If you wish to terminate the wash cycle, the tubes need to be emptied. To do this just turn on the
machine for a few seconds taking care to extract the feed tube from the washing solution. This
operation must be brief (maximum 10 seconds) so as not to damage the functioning of the pump.
To stop the machine press the STOP/RESET button.
To completely empty the tubes from any residues of liquid, disconnect the drainage tube from the
pump.
This WASHING operation must be repeated at the moment of putting the machine away in storage,
or whenever it has not been used for long periods of time. In this case the application of a few drops
of glycerine inside the pump body is recommended to keep the rubber impeller inside lubricated.

4.2 FILLING.
Place the plastic bag on the prong with the cap inserted, as shown in photo no.4.
Adjust the height of the prong in relation to the shelf of the filling
machine so that once the bag has been filled, the level of the liquid inside the bag reaches the plastic
top of the same. This will make it possible to reduce the amount of air inside the bag, should nitrogen
injection not be used.
Lower the filler head so that the extraction pincer adheres to the cap without difficulty. If necessary
turn the head using the handwheel, so as to prevent obstruction in extraction of the cap.
After the cap has been extracted, turn the filler head to the left and insert the filling cylinder inside
the bag.
If this operation should prove difficult because the head is not central to the plastic seat, adjust the
two screws A and B situated high up on the support column (see photo no. 6)
N° 4

Set the quantity of liquid to be filled, the seconds of depression and if applicable the seconds of
nitrogen injection on the electronic display. Do not change the adjustment parameter values.
Make sure that the compressor is working as indicated in the INSTALLATION section.
Turn on the machine by pressing the START button.
If the machine is stop during a filling pressing the switch Stop/Reset, when the machine is start again,
i twill be finish the last filling.. If the switch Stop / Reset is pressed a second time the machine will
start from the beginning a new filling.
The filling head , is supplied with a mechanical system that allow to block it during the filling. This
system allows the worker to do a different operation while the machine is working.
During the first start-up, when the tubes are empty, put the by-pass valve of the decanting pump in
the CLOSED position. Once the first filling has been completed and the tubes are therefore all
full, it is recommended that you switch the by-pass valve to the OPEN position so as to reduce the
possibility of the formation of froth in the decanted liquid.
The machine will extract air from inside the bag for the seconds set and subsequently will begin
filling. On reaching the set quantity the machine will stop, blocking the pump and closing the valve.
If nitrogen injection has been selected it will inject the nitrogen for the seconds set after which the
nitrogen valve will also close.
Upon termination of filling, extract the head and insert the cap using the pincer for the purpose.
The bag is then ready to be put in the cardboard box.
At this point check the weight and if necessary modify the values of the K and CORR parameters, as
indicated in the ADJUSTMENT section. To such purpose, until the correct value of the correction
parameters has been determined we recommend the use of temporary caps, so as to be able to empty
the bags easily.
Once the correct values have been set the machine will repeat filling of the set quantity continuously.
Any variations may depend on the following factors:
Significant variations in the capacity of the filling tank
Wear of the rubber impeller of the pump.
4.3 HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT OF THE PRONG .
When filling is completed should the air extraction tube, situated on the filler head, tend to fill with
liquid, the height of the prong holding the bag should be adjusted.
WARNING!
Regolazione testa
di riempimento

Such adjustment should be made without extracting the filler head, to prevent the liquid from
spilling out of the bag.
Using the handwheel as indicate before raise the prong until the liquid inside the tube ebbs back into
the bag. Block the prong in place at this new height and remove the filling head. The level of the
liquid inside the bag must remain within the rigid ring section. The height thus determined will be
valid for all the bags of the same capacity. When the size of the bag varies the height will need to be
readjusted.
4.4 DIFFERENT BAG FORMAT. To modify the bag format utilised perform the following
corrections:
Check the height of the prong and if necessary adjust in relation to the size of the bag
Set the no. of litres needed to fill the new bag format
Adjust, if necessary, only the COR parameter
Before starting up the machine for the first filling operation press the RESET button for 5
seconds and check that the counter “QUANTITA’ EROGATA” is at 0. If a different value is
shown keep the RESET button pressed until the O figure appears.
All repairs must be carried out directly by Enoitalia srl or by qualified and specialised staff
In the case of any repair operations use original spare parts only by contacting the retailer or
manufacturer directly.
PROBLEM
REMEDY
The filling machine does not stop upon reaching
the no. of litres set.
Check that the compressor is turned on and that
the air tubes are open.
Check that the air tube is connected to the
pneumatic valve.
The filling machine stops after a few litres without
reaching the set level.
Press the reset button and check that all the
counters show the correct start value.
It is difficult to insert the filler head inside the
bags.
Check that the head is centred and adjust using the
screws for the purpose.
The pincer cannot get the cap out.
Check the exact position of the cap and if
necessary adjust it using the handwheel for the
purpose.
Check the load springs of the pincer.
Check that the cap is compatible with the pincer
used and if necessary contact the manufacturer.
The air depression tube fills with liquid.
Raise the fork holding the bags.
If only a matter of a few drops this is not a
problem since they will be expelled from the
tubes at the next filling operation.
Liquid leaks onto the lower shelf.
These are drops of liquid which are expelled from
the air depression outlet. These drops will not
cause any damage to the system, but to collect
them put a recipient under the outlet tube.
Liquid leaks out of the decanting pump.
Check and replace the mechanical pump seal.
WARNING
5. POSSIBLE CAUSES OF MALFUNCTIONING
PULIZIA, MANUTENZIONE RIMESSAGGIO

The filling machine does not start and no liquid
comes out of the filler head.
Check that the machine is powered at the right
voltage. Do not use extension leads of insufficient
