PIÑABAR OPERATION
The Piñabar is a machine for coring and spearing pineapples. A fully functional system for automatic
peeling of a pineapple within a timeframe of 20 seconds. The feed and output of the pineapple is done
manually, while the remaining operations are completely automatic.
START-UP
The main switch of the Piñabar is located behind the front door. NOTE: Once servicing is completed,
close the door and lock it with the provided key.
►Turn the switch by pushing the red tab up.
STARTING POINT
After starting up, the machine needs to be in the starting point position. This is indicated by the green
ashing light of the start button.
If the machine is not at its starting point the normal functions will not work properly; the operation system
needs to know where the tongs are before a function can be selected.
Put the machine at the starting point:
► Press the start button. The green light start button will ash.
► After the machine is at the starting point, “Place Pineapple” will ash indicating machine is ready for use.
First the vertical axis (pressing-axis) is put in starting position. If, when pressing the start button, the press
is not at the top the motor is started and will move the press up. Is the press already at the top then the
turning axis will be put in the right position.
The turning axis makes a maximum of one turn, even if the switch on the In/Output is already operated.
This is done to make sure the machine always gets the exact same position: the tongs are in the front.
When the machine has been turned o󰀨 longer than 15 seconds, the machine requires a test run before it’s
ready for use again. Never place a pineapple or bucket in the machine when performing a test run.

PAGE 2
PINEAPPLE CYCLE
When all the conditions are met (starting position, empty waste bin, no running pineapple cycle) the lights
ash “Place Pineapple” to indicate that a pineapple can be placed. “Place Bucket” will follow indicating a
bucket needs to be placed at the bottom of the machine.
► Place pineapple and close the door
“Place Pineapple” light burns continuously
► Place bucket
“Place Bucket” light burns continuously
► Press the start button. (Pineapple door is locked and machine starts operation.)
Pineapple door is locked and machine begins operation. "Start" light burns continuously
► End of cycle as pineapple drops into the bucket
“Take Bucket” light ashes repeatedly
► Machine ready for next cycle
“Place Pineapple” light ashes repeatedly
When the pineapple and bucket are in place (the lights burn continuously). The start button will begin to
ash green. If the bucket is removed before pressing the start button, the “Place Bucket” light will ash
again. Place the bucket again.
Make sure the sliding door is closed properly and then press the start button. The sliding door will be
locked and the cycle will start, the start button light now burns continuously.
If, after pressing the start button, the bucket is removed the light will burn continuously, the program will
run until the moment the fruit is above the output valve. Place a bucket.
The pineapple turns through the machine. As soon as the pineapple sensor doesn’t see the pineapple (in
the beginning of the movement) the “Place Pineapple” light is turned o󰀨.
During the rotation to the press position, the top and bottom of the pineapple is cut, resulting in a
pineapple with the proper height.
The turning axis stops at the "pressing axis" in the back of the machine. Now the presser moves down and
the pineapple is pushed through the rosette blade. The skin of the pineapple is cut loose and falls into the
waste bin. The core is also cut and pushed out.
If no bucket is present at the output station, the program stops. Place a bucket, the machine will continue
and the “Place Bucket” light ashes continuously.
If the pineapple holder is at the output position, the pineapple will fall into the bucket and the cycle is
nished.
The light “Take Bucket” will start ashing to indicate that the bucket can be removed. If this is completed
the “Take Bucket” and “Start” lights are turned o󰀨. The “Place Pineapple” light will start ashing indicating
the machine is ready for the next cycle.

PAGE 3
WASTE BIN
After every cycle, the cut pineapple is registered by adding 1 to the
counter. This is also the indicator for the number of skins in the waste
bin (not visible in the display). If the maximum number of skins has
been reached (standard set to 15) the orange light will start to ash.
No pineapple can be cut at this time. The waste bin needs to be
emptied. By opening the door, the count is automatically reset.
► Waste bin full. start button light ashes orange.
► Open the machine door.
► Remove the waste bin from the machine.
► Empty the waste bin.
► Place the waste bin back into the machine.
► Close the machine door. Orange light is o󰀨. “Place Pineapple” light ashes.
ATTENTION: THE WASTE BIN IS NOT CHECKED ON CONTENTS. IN CASE OF OPENING THE
DOOR BUT NOT EMPTYING THE WASTE BIN, THE WASTE BIN COULD BECOME TOO FULL.
