re the conformity of the machine within a reasonable period of time. The guarantee does not
cover parts of the Products subject to normal wear and tear and/or deterioration or defects
resulting from inappropriate transport.

19. SAFETY DEVICES ADOPTED
SAFETY VALVE (10): acertiedsafetyvalve(setto10.5bar),
installed to the pneumatic system, under the pressure switch.
It tackles over-pressure in the instance where, owing to ano-
malies, the pressure switch does not function. Safety valve in-
tervention ensures the operator switches off the appliance and
requests the support of maintenance persons.
PRESSURE SWITCH (2): an electro-pneumatic device (set to a
minimum of 7 bar and a maximum of 10 bar) installed to the
pneumatic system. It serves to control the automatic start-up of
the appliance when the operating pressure comes down to 7 bar
and the automatic close-down when the pressure reaches 10 bar.
FAN COVER (19): xed protection made of plastic attached
usingscrewsxed tothetwin cylinderpumpsystembase.It
serves to stop accidental contact with the cooling fan when in
motion.
TANK PRESSURE GAUGE (15): a measuring device installed to
the appliance tank. It displays the compressed air pressure in-
side the tank.
OUTLET PRESSURE GAUGE (8): a measuring device installed
to the appliance pneumatic system above the air outlet spigot.
It displays the outlet pressure, which can be
adjusted using the relative pressure regulator
(0÷10 bar) (7).
