ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND ADVICE REGARDING
SUPPLEMENTARY ELECTRICAL PROTECTION:
Commercial bakeries, kitchens and foodservice areas are environments where electrical
appliances may be located close to liquids or operate in and around damp conditions or
where restricted movement for installation and service is evident.
The installation and periodic inspection of the appliance should only be undertaken by a
qualified, skilled and competent electrician, and connected to the correct supply suitable
for the load as stipulated by the appliance data label.
The electrical installation and connections should meet the necessary requirements of
the local electrical wiring regulations and any electrical safety guidelines.
We Recommend:
−Supplementary electrical protection with the use of a residual current device
(RCD)
−Fixed wiring appliances incorporate a locally situated switch disconnector to
connect to, which is easily accessible for switching off and safe isolation purposes.
The switch disconnector must meet the specification requirements of IEC 60947.
The supply to this machine must be protected by a 30mA RCD

It is recommended that when heavy mixes are used, the inside of the hopper should be
coated with vegetable oil; for lighter mixes such as meringue, dampen with water. The oil
or water will help the mix to settle down the hopper walls and prevent air being sucked in.
NOTE: THIS MACHINE IS FOR USE WITH SOFT DOUGH ONLY
The use of templates and/or accessories not produced or supplied by MONO Equipment
will invalidate the machine’s warranty

4. TABLE ADJUSTMENTS
It is important that the table is parallel with the hopper.
(If this is not correct the nozzles will not be the same distance from the trays and the deposits
will differ across the tray).
Measure the distance at “A” and “B” below and check that they are the same.
This should be checked with the hopper bars positioned at both the full left position and the
full right position.
If not the same, an adjustment can be made by raising or lowering the adjusters under the
table. There is one each side to allow the table to be adjusted evenly.
Lift the front edge of the table and, with a suitable spanner, release the locking nut. Screw
the adjuster bolt up or down and then lock it in position with the locking nut.
5. TRAY GUIDE ADJUSTMENT
“A”
“B”
This allows different width trays to be accommodated.
To adjust the position of the back guide, remove the
table and turn it over. Loosen the thumb nuts and slide
the sheet across to the desired position. Tighten the
nuts and replace the table.
