• The material is transported into the machine by the conveyor belt.
When the machine works in the opposite direction
As the machine is wired according to the IEC standardized rotary
field, when changing the rotary direction we recommend that this
is performed by an experienced specialist. The rotary direction may
be changed by exchanging the “L1” and “L2” connections in the plug.
Danger! Incorrect exchange of the connections may endanger the operator.
In doubt, this work should be performed by an electrical specialist.
