STOP MODES AND EMERGENCY STOP
The normal stop function of the device is achieved by setting the main switch to “0” (zero).
The emergency stop function is achieved by disconnecting the power supply from the plug
socket.
After an emergency stop or a stop due to an anomaly or a power cut, always set the
main switch to “0” (zero).
EXAMPLES OF WORK
Set the device to cool or heat using the switch. (2)
Select the temperature level using the switch(2)
Start the machine by pressing the main switch(1)
After 1.5 minutes, the machine is ready for use
Place the part of frame to be softened between the heat
conveyors(5)
Mold the part according to requirements; if necessary the
temperature can be adjusted using the control (4)
Be careful not to introduce any thread-like objects (e.g., arms of the glasses) into the
grills (6) to avoid risking contact with live parts.
To warm up a small surface on the frame (bridge, spectacle…) please use the heat
conveyor. Once the step is done, this accessory must be removed as this can provoke an overheating
