6 Obligations in the event of malfunctioning and/or potential
dangers
The operators must inform their direct seniors of any deficiency and/or potential
dangerous situation that should occur.
6.1 - User obligations
The user must inform the manufacturer immediately if any defects and/or malfunctioning of
the accident-prevention system are detected, as well as any presumed dangerous situation
of which he becomes aware. It is prohibited for the user and/or third parties (excluding duly
authorised manufacturer’s staff) to make any type or entity of modifications to the machine
and its functions, as well as to this technical document. In the event of malfunctioning and/or
dangers, owing to failure to respect the afore-said, the manufacturer is not liable for any
consequences. We recommend you request any modifications from the Manufacturer.
7 Troubleshooting
7.1 - Troubleshooting
1 After having connected the master switch, the machine does not start:
a) Check that the plug is well inserted into the socket and, if necessary, control the
contacts inside the plug itself.
b) Check that on lowering the lid, the micro switch positioned on the rear below
the right fixing hinge, is excited.
2 The machine operates regularly, but the package is not sealed when the
lid is opened
a) Lift the Teflon and check that the resistance is not interrupted and it is blocked
on the lateral clamps.
3 If the machine does not achieve an excellent vacuum
a) Close the lid and disconnect the line when a negative pressure of about 90%
has been reached. Check whether the vacuum percentage indicated on the
display remains fixed or decreases.
- In the first case, there are no leaks, therefore the problem has another source
(pump vanes, oil replacement).
- In the second case, there is the presence of air infiltration into thetank:
• Check the membrane below the sealing bar, checking that it has no holes or
is ripped
• Check the integrity of the sealing gasket positioned under the lid; if the
afore-mentioned pieces must be replaced, request them directly from the
authorised dealer.
WARNING!
In case the machine is turned off or there is a power outage during the
vacuum cycle, it may happen that the lid does not open due to the vacuum
reached at the time of switching off.
To open the lid is necessary to bring the pressure in the tank. Then turn on
the machine with the side button, after one second the drain valve opens and
you can re-open the lid.

18
5.2- Maintenance
1. Clean the sealing bars and the silicon counter-bar more or less every 15 days
using alcohol.
2. Change the oil every 400 hours of working (data variable depending on the type
of product packed).
After 2000 cycles the machine envisions an automatic oil control, the display
shows the “oil change” message. The user must call the dealer, who will
check the efficiency of the oil and will replace it, if necessary.
3. Replacement of electric resistances, Teflon sealing bar, lid sealing gaskets
about every 200 working hours.
4. Replacement of the silicon counter-bar
5. Check pump vanes, filters, pneumatic solenoid valve seals every 35,000
work cycles.
5.2.1 - Vacuum pump
For the safeguarding and the duration of the vacuum pump, follow the indications
given below scrupulously:
- Do not suck up steam, liquids and flours of any type.
This compromises the viscosity of the pump oil and damages the pump itself.
- Periodically check the pump oil level through the visual inspection window
A level below minimum can damage the pump
A level above maximum can damage the pump filter and the pump itself
- Periodically check the colour of the pump oil. If the oil appears
cloudy, dark or emulsioned, it must be replaced immediately.
- Replace the pump oil every 2 / 4 / 6 or 12 months, depending on use and location
of the equipment, or appearing the notice "change oil" on the display.
The pump oil may have to be replaced every month.
- Replace the pump oil before prolonged machine shutdown.
ATTENTION!!:
Considering that the vacuum packaging machine is nearly always located in the
kitchen, an environment full of steam and humidity, the level and quality of the
pump oil must be checked constantly and replaced frequently and periodically.

Before carrying out any check that leads to the removal of some items, the plug
must be removed from the mains electricity.
3.3.1 - Disposal of the packaging
The packaging materials such as cardboard, nylon and woodare products similar
to solid urban waste. They can therefore be disposed of freely.
Nylon is a pollutant, which produces toxic fumes if burned.
Do not burn and disperse in the environment, but dispose according to the Laws in
force.
If the machine is in a country where there are particular regulations, dispose of the
packaging in compliance with that described by the Standards in force.
3.4 - Connections
Before start-up, check the oil level
via the control window present
on the pump.
Before connecting the packaging machine, make sure that the plate data
correspond with that of the mains electricity.
The plate is on the rear of the machine.
When the level has been checked and everything closed, connect the plug to the
230V socket.
In the event of incompatibility between the socket and plug, have the socket
replaced with a suitable one by professionally qualified staff.
In particular, the latter must check that the section of the cables is suitable for the
input power of the machine. In general, the use of adapters, multiple socket outlets
and/or extensions is not recommended.
Whenever their use is indispensible, only simple or multiple adapters and
extensions must be used that are in compliance with Safety Standards in force;
however paying attention not to exceed the capacity limit in terms of current value,
and the maximum power value marked on the multiple outlet.
