GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, read all instructions properly. Failure to follow the instructions listed
below can cause electric shock, fire, serious injuries, mutilation and/or damage to the equipment.
A. SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA.
* Keep the work area clean and lit. Crowded or dark areas lead to accidents.
* Do not operate the equipment without first checking all gas connections with soapy water, to ensure that
there are no leaks that could cause an explosion.
* Keep children, customers and non-company personnel away from the electrical and mechanical operation
area of the equipment.
* It is recommended to have a minimum space of one meter or three feet around the machine for safety
measure and to optimize work.
B. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
* Machinery connections must be adapted to the power outlets.
* Do not use adapters for the switches: since you run the risk of receiving an electric shock.
* Do not expose the switches and / or electrical connections to rain or humidity. If water enters these
elements, there is a risk that they will break down or suffer an electric shock.
* Use cable in a single piece. If there are joints in the connections these can produce a short circuit.
* Do not expose cables or electrical connections to heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts, as damaged
cables can cause electric shock or short circuit.
C. PERSONAL SAFETY
* Do not operate the equipment if you are tired, under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
* Wear appropriate clothing, do not wear loose clothing, or necklaces, earrings, watches, if you have long
hair wear a tie to keep it up.

* Avoid using headphones, cell phones or any other equipment that works as a distraction to the operator.
* Make correct use of personal protective equipment if any maintenance is to be carried out on the machine.
* If any change is made to the model or component of the equipment, be it electrical, mechanical or gas
related, it must be de-energized, cut off the gas supply and stop the machine completely to avoid accidents.
* Keep limbs away from all moving parts.

GAS AND ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
At the outlet of the gas tank, a model 10-080 high-pressure regulator must be installed, with a pressure gauge
(0-7 Kg.) to verify the correct supply pressure. The pipe used for the connection is 3/4”of diameter,
either L-type copper or 40-gauge black tubing.
The length of the pipe should not exceed 10 meters from the outlet of the gas tank.
A union nut must be installed between the stopcock and the low-pressure regulator.
Before the machine’s gas input, a low-pressure regulator must be installed.
Verify that the electrical connection is 220v. No short circuits, no loose or bare wires.

CLEANING PROCEDURE
WARNING: Cleaning both the rollers and the base must be done with the machine completely stopped to avoid
accidents such as crushing.
FRONT ROLLER CLEANING
1. Remove the dough residues from the front roller at total stop with your hands.
2. Turn the machine on again to change the position of the roller, turn off the machine and proceed with
cleaning. You must carry out this action as many times as necessary to complete the cleaning of the roller.
3. Clean the cable tie grooves with a plastic bristle brush to prevent the build-up of mass that may break the
wire when it dries.
4. Wipe the remaining dough from the top of the roller with a damp cloth.
5. After removing the dough residues from the roller, there will be an excess.
6. Spread a little water after removing the remaining dough to complete the cleaning of the roller.
7. Clean the rollers with a dry cloth after spreading water over them to remove excess moisture.
CLEANING THE REAR ROLLER
8. Clean the rear roller, pour in a little water, and wipe with a cloth to remove any dough residues.
NOTICE: You will need to turn the machine on to change the position of the roller as many times as necessary
to clean them completely.
9. After you have cleaned the roller from the front and back, you should wipe the upper part of the
stainless steel roller with a damp cloth.
10. Use a damp cloth to clean the base of the bench and remove lumps from the slide with a wire brush.
MAINTENANCE
Clean the machine before and after using it.
The duration of the spare parts will depend on the preventive maintenance and care taken to the machine.
The more frequently this maintenance is done, the parts will have a longer life.
