•Way of motor rotation.
The motor must turn in ANTI-CLOCKWISE direction.
To do this verification :
oSwitch the overload safety/starter button (3) in position "ON" = I
oStop the mill quickly by turning the button (3) in position "OFF" = O
oCheck the direction of the agitating spindle which is visible in the bottom of the feed hopper.
The motor must turn ANTI-CLOCKWISE direction. If it is the case, the motor is well connected.
oOtherwise, the way of rotation has to be changed:
!Invert the two wires (phase) on the connecting cable (1).
!Try again a new verification as described above.
•When the motor runs in the correct direction, the mill is ready to work in milling.
CLEANNING BEFORE FIRST USE
Clean all the surfaces in contact with foodstuff (except the millstones) with a soft sponge and cleaning product allowed to get in contact with
foodstuff.
To clean the millstones, grind 5 kg of cereals to obtain an extra fine flour (see chapter Regulating the fineness of the flour). Throw away this flour and
clean the mill chamber and the stones with a vaccum cleaner.

INSTRUCTION OF USE
TO SWITCH THE MILL ON
•Connect your mill to a power supply.
•Check that the adjustable grain in-feed (12) is closed. FIll the hopper with cereals or grains.
•Switch the overload safety/starter button (3) in position "ON" = I.
•Open the adjustable grain in-feed inlet (12) to allows the cereals to go in the mill chamber
•Check the charge of the motor on the ampmeter (13) (see chapter Ampmeter)
•During functionning, the mill doens’t need to be supervised once the grain in-feed and the fineness set.
•Stop the motor as soon as the hopper is empty to avoid an increase of motor temprature.
ADJUSTABLE GRAIN IN-FEED
The adjustable grain in-feed is obtained by changing the size of the opening situated at the bottom from the feed hopper (5) by the feed inlet control
red knob (12).
The regulating of the inlet has only few influence on the fineness of the flour but allows to control:
•the temperature of the flour
•the optimal charge from the motor thanks the indication of the ampmeter (see chapter Ampmeter).
SETTING THE FINENESS OF THE FLOUR
The fineness of the flour is obtained by adjusting the distance from the fixed upper millstone (10) to the lower moving millstone fixed on the motor
axle. This setting can be done without level from coartse to the finest milling.
Instruction:
•Close the feed inlet hole by turning the grain in-feed lever-red knob (12).
•Run the mill by switching the starter button (3), position ON = I
•Firmly maintain the fixed upper millstone (10) by holding the grain in-feed lever-red knob (12) or driving lever- lack knob (14). Then
unscrew the upper millstones locking bolt (4).
•Fine grinding :
oWith the lever, turn the fixed upper millstone (10) slowly clockwise until you hear a very slight scrapping of the millstone agains
each other.
oAs soon as your hear the noise of friction, stop turning and eventually come back from some millimeters.
oWhile firmly maintaining with a hand the upper millstone (10), screw up the locking bolt (4) to maintain the millstone in the
chosen position. After screwing the locking bolt (4), you schould only hear the scraping of the millstones quite lightly.
oAfter this, open the inlet hole by unscrewing the grain in-feed lever-red knob (12) to let the grain going in the mill chamber.
oBefore turning the motor off, close the inlet aperture by screwing the inlet knob (12).
•Coarse grinding :
oWith regard to the fine milling, you must take apart the millstones. More you take the millestones apart and more you
will obtain coarse grinding.
oUnscrew from two revolutions the locking bolt (4) and maintain firmly with one hand the fixed upper millstone (10) by holding
the inlet knob (12).
oTurn slowly the fixed millstone anti-clockwise.
oLock the bolt (4), to use the mill.
•Extrafine grinding:
oPut the mill in fine grinding position.
oOnce the fine grinding setting done, motor running and grains in the mill chamber,re-open the the locking bolt (4) and hold the
driving lever – black knob (14).
oTurn slowly clockwise the upper millstone until you hear again the millstones rubing agains each other. With this operation, you
remove
oAs soon as the grinding is finish, stop the mill to avoid that the millstones rub together without grains.
AMPEMETER
The ampmeter (13) allows to control the charge of the motor during the milling, in view to avoid the releasing of the thermal security.
The engine charge makes it possible to obtain an optimal balance between grinding output and heating of the engine/room of grinding. The goal is
to limit the rise in temperature of the flour in order to preserve the food values of them.
With this object, it is important not to go beyond following intensity :
•Motor 380V threephased 3 kW : 5.7 amp
•Motor 380V threephased 4 kW : 7.5 amp
•Motor 220V threephased 3 kW : 9.9 amp
•Motor 220V threephased 4 kW : 13.3 amp
6

To obtain the good intensity, you will have to increase or reduce the inlet from grains, as indicated in the chapter of Adjustable grain in-feed
opening“.
A mark on the ampmeter allows to see the intensity that has not to be overcrossed.
TIME COUNTER
The mill is equiped with a time counter to be abble to follow the hours of use.
TIMER (PI380/4 and PI220/4 only)
A timer allows to give a milling time . Once the time is ellasped, the motor will automatically stop.
During this milling time, take care that the hopper is full enough to avoid the mill working wihtout grains.
TO STOP THE MILL
At the end of the milling and before to stop the motor, we adwise to close the opening hole with the feed inlet knob (12). This measure allow an
automatic cleaning from the mill chamber..
Turn the starter button (3) in position OFF = 0
This instruction goes also for emergency stops.
CLEANING
After each use of the mill :
•Unplug the connecting cable before each cleaning of the mill.
•Shake the air filter (6) The filter has to be keep as clean as possible to facilitate the evacuation of the air coming from the millchamber.
•Clean the aera of the mill from all flour.
MILLSTONES
The millstones are made of natural components as :
•Corundum, extremely hard. It is the working part of the mill.
•Binding agent or cement, made upon terrestraial and nautical magnesite.
After several years of use, it is known and normal that the millstones wear out. Some. Users take a fright as soon as they see some wear traces near
the center of the lower moving millstone and some other , after years of use without never any look to their millstones , find out a less fine milling.
To take care of your millstones in order to achieve a much longer life of them, keep in mind the following : the finer the flour required, the less wear
on the stones.
Indeed, in fine milling there is a self sharpen on the stones, when by coarse milling the tendency is on a more baring of the stones.
Consequently, it is good , regulary, to sharpen the stones by doing an extra fine milling where the stones lightly touch together.
HUMIDITY = Enemy number one of the millstones
•It is absolutely indispensable to use cereals or grains which are very dry.
The use of grains, which are not dry enough can provoke the soilling from the millstones and the stop of the motor by the
releasing of the thermal security.
•You can regognize a dry grain when it cracks between the teeth.
•The cereals have to be stocked in preference in a dry room, heated and ventilated.
•Stored outside or in a humid room, or not ventilated, the grains can absorb humidity and provoke the soilling from the
millstones.
•In case of a long time of inutilisation, it is important to store the mill in a dry place, well cleaned and disencumbered of
the flour and the grains.
An excess of humidity while period of storage can be damageable for the millstones.

MAINTENANCE
USUAL MAINTENANCE
Of a solid construction and built to last, your cereal mill don’t require complicated maintenance.
Before overy operation of maintenance, stop the mill and unplug the connecting cable (1)
Never use the mill before all the safety measures and protections are positioned back.
On regular intervals of time (every 40 hours) or before a long period of use, the following maintenance has to be done:
•Cleaning the air filter:
oShake the air filter (6) who ensure the evacuation of the ve,tilation air. It efficiency depends on its state of cleanness.
oWash the air filter with lukewarm water, gently,without to outstretch the fiber of the air filter. Don’t hesitate the change your air
filter if the filter is not flourproof anymore.
•After taking off the fixed upper millstone (10), clean the inside of the mill chamber housing (9) with a vaccum cleaner.
•Clean the threads of the millstones (inside and outside) with a soft brush to remove all the flour.
•With a cloth, apply a thin film of vaseline oil (or sewing machine oil) on the threads.
•Clean the flour selector with the furnished brush.
•Clean the mill (motor mill chamber) and all his surounded area with a vacuum cleaner.

IF PROBLEM OCCUR
Always unplug the outlet when not use or before maintenance and cleaning operations.
Never use the mill before all the safety measures and protections are positioned back
SAMAP ECOSYSTEME or your retailler will answer to all your technical questions. Do not hesitate to contact us for further details
or advices.
MILL DOESN’T START
•Check that the electric cable is proprely connected to the outlet. Check if the electric cable is not damaged.
•For the model PI380/4 or PI220/4, check that the timer is not on 0.
INSUFFICIENT FINENESS
If the finess of the flour is insufficient:
•Check that your cereals or grains are dry enough. With humid cereals , you won’t reach a good fineness.
•Ajust the distance the millstones (see chapter Setting the FINENESS)
After several tons of flour, it is normal that the millstones wear out a little.By changing the distance between the millstones you will find
again a high fineness.
•Check that the millstones are not damaged because of grinding foregns bodies (metal, stone,….). In this case, you will see. In this case, you
can send us picture of the two millestones to see if they need a rough sharpening or need to be replaced.
UPPER MILLSTONE THREAD IS BLOCKED
Sometime, a small amount of flour is able to come along the thread. After a while this flour is reacting like glue: it is not possible or hard to
screw/unscrew the upper millstone. It is not possible to change the grinding fineness anymore.
To avoid this problem, respect the maintenance instructions (see chapter Usual maintenance).
If the upper millstone is blocked
•Heat the mill chamber housing with a hair dryer all around during a 10 minut period. This rise in temperature will allow a light dilation of
the mill chamber housing compared to the upper millstone.
•Unscrew the upper millstone with small movement of going return to free the thread from this glue. Take off the upper millstone.
•Never use a hammer or give a shock to unscrew the millstone. This could damage the threads.
•Clean the threads (mill chamber and upper millstone) with the help of a soft brush. With a cloth, apply a thin film of vaseline oil (or sewing
machine oil) on both threads.
•Screw on the fixed upper millstone (10), taking good care of the threads.
When it is not possible to move the millstone even after heating the mill chamber housing, the mill will have to return to your dealer or our factory.
IN CASE OF MOTOR OVERLOAD
In the event of motor overload, the switch (3), turns automatically in position “OFF” = 0. This safety overload protect the motor.
When the temprature of the motor is too high, you will have to wait a few minutes until the the temperature of the motor drops down to be able to
turn the switch again in postion 1= ON.
The repeated shutdowns of the overload safety button are often the insufficiently dried cereal symptom.
To cure this problem:
•Check the moisture of the cereals and grains as a damp grain will ask to many efforts for the motor to be grind. Dry the grains to avoid an
overload of the motor.
•Check if the millstones are not soiled ( –see chapter soiling the millstones). Clean the millstones or do coarse grinding with very dry cereals.
•Check the quality of your grains (presence of foreign particules like stones, iron, ….). Clean the cereals
SOILING THE MILLSTONES
In case of soiling of the millstones and stop of the motor, proceed as follow :
•Empty the hopper (5) from all grains
•Unscrew the locking bolt (4) from the fixed upper millstone (10)
•Unscrew the fixed upper millstone (10) by turning i tant-clockwise.
•Remove the upper millstone (10) from the mill chamber (9). Take good care to the threads.
•Clean the millstones with the help of a screw-driver or a pointed knife , in order to take out the agglutinated pasty crust on the surface. Take
also care to take out the cavities in the millstones.
•Never wash the millstones.
•If they get wet accidentaly, leave them apart somewhere to dry.
