1. Unpacking and Placement:
Caution: Do not plug the machine into the mains or turn it on uring set-up.
Carefully unpack the machine an accessories. Place the machine on an even,
stable surface, ensuring there are no flammable materials nearby as the heater
ban s can reach temperatures of up to 600°C.
2. Hopper ttachment:
Begin by attaching the hopper. Locate two bolts in the barrel's esignate holes.
Unscrew these bolts, position the hopper over the holes, an securely screw the
bolts back in place.
3. Optional 45-Degree ngle Set-up:
The extru er can be use flat on an even surface or at a 45- egree angle using
the provi e mounting brackets. Secure the brackets with the six bolts provi e :
two for each en an two connecting the brackets. Note: When in the angle
position, ensure the machine is properly secure to prevent acci ental tipping.
4. Power Connection:
Once the initial steps are complete , you can plug in the mains cable into the
machine. Before oing so, ouble-check that the mains voltage (e.g., 220VAC or
110VAC) matches the voltage specifie on the machine (refer to the sticker on the
machine).
Note: Always follow these set-up instructions meticulously to ensure the safe an
effective operation of the machine. If you encounter any issues or have
questions, refer to the comprehensive user manual for further gui ance.
