READ BEFORE USE
This manual is an original Swienty A/S manual for DANA api 1000, 2000+ and 3000. The goal of
thismanualistoensureacorrectuse,handlingandmaintenanceofthellingmachine.The
manual has to be kept in a place accessible for users and maintenance staff. It is the owner’s
responsibilitytomakesurethateveryonethatoperates,services,maintainsorrepairsthelling
machine has read the manual; or at least the part of the manual that is relevant for their work.
Furthermoreiseveryoneoperating,servicing,maintainingorrepairingthellingmachineobliged
to look for information in the manual themselves. PICTURES OF BOTH DANA api MATIC 1000,
2000+ AND 3000 ARE USED IN THIS MANUAL, SINCE MOST PROCEDURES ARE THE SAME FOR ALL
THREE MACHINES.
Before the machine is used, it is necessary to make sure that the machine is placed on a stable
surface, the wheels on the DANA api MATIC 3000 or the separately purchased stand are locked
andthellingmachineisplacedinawell-litareasotheoperationandcleaningcanbeconduc-
tedsafely.Thepowercord(230V)shouldbeplacedinawaythatitdoesnotposeatriphazard
during operation or cleaning (possibly hang up). THE MACHINE MUST ALWAYS BE USED UNDER
SUPERVISION.
The product falls under direktive 2002/96/EF on waste electrical and electronic equipment
(WEEE).
The product may not be disposed of together with unsorted household waste. Use your local
WEEE collection point to dispose of this product and make sure that all relevant regulations are
complied with.
• Neverusethellingmachinewithsubstanceswarmerthan50degreesCelcius,sinceitcan
lead to heavy wear of the pump housing unless you have purchased additional equipment
for warm substances.
• Never take off the pump housing without unplugging the machine, since it can lead to the
exposure of moving parts.
• Thepumpmayneverrunwithoutallingsubstanceforalongerperiodoftime(i.e.without
honey or similar substance), because this may cause it to get too hot and thus damage the
gears and/or shaft seals. .
• Clean the machine after use, see page 17.
• Never connect to power before all hoses
andttingsaremountedtothepump.
• The machine should only be opened by a
qualiedtechnician.
• The machine should only be used for
honey and similar substances. When in
doubt contact Swienty.
• Never try to transport the machine
without setting the height adjustment of
the DANA api MATIC 3000 or the
seperately purchased stand to its mini-
mum position or without removing the
funnel if you are using one. Otherwise
the machine might turn over.
This machine is in compliance with the
following directives:

ENGLISH
FILLING
When the machine is turned on, the display shows the settings that have been used for the last
lling.Pressthe[START]buttontobeginlling.Furthermoreyoucanstartthemachinewithan
externalstartimpuls,e.g.theincludedfootpedal.Inthebeginningthellingamountis0andit
then counts up to the set amount.
After that the motor stops immediately, takes a short break TIMEADRIP (se parameters) and
shortly rotates backwards.
Thispreventsthemachinefromdrippingafterthelling(seeantidripfunction[ANTIDRIP]).
Ifyouwanttoincrease/decreasetheshownamount,pressthe[+]/[-]buttons.Thellingamount
blinks on the display.
When you have reached the desired amount, press the [ENTER] button. Now this amount is
connected to the program until you set it again.
ANTIDRIP
Aproblemwithtoughliquidslikee.g.honeyusthattheycancontinuedrippingafterlling.To
preventthisfromhappening,wehavedevelopedaspecialrubbernozzlethatminimizesthis.
At the same time the motor rotates backwards for a short time to suck a small amount back in.
This amount depends on the consistency of the substance.
Press [ANTIDRIP]. The number blinking on the display stands for the return pulses. With the
[+]/[-]buttonsthenumbercanbechanged(thehigherthenumber,themorebackow).Save
with [ENTER]. If the number is too low, then the machine drips, if it is too high, then the machine
sucksintoomuchair.Withthenextllingtheairwillthenloudlybepressedoutagain.
CALIBRATION
Tomakesurethattheamountshownonthedisplaymatchedthelledamount,themachine
needs to be calibrated.
Do a testrun anf measure it on a calibrated scale. If the display shows e.g. 500g but the scale
measures 520g, the value from the scale needs to be transfered to the machine.
With the [+] button you set the value to 520. The number blinks. Instead of saving with [ENTER],
you need to press [CALIBRATE]. The number on the display jumps back to 500g. Now the machine
is calibrated (in some cases this process needs to be repeated a few times).
MOTOR’S SPEED REGULATION
In some cases it can be necessary to regulate the pump capacity and thus the motor’s speed.
Press the [SPEED] button. The speed setting blinks. Using the [+]/[-] buttons you said the desired
speedinpercentage.Savebypressing[ENTER].Canbesetin5%intervals.
Thspeedregulationcanalsobechangedwhilethemachineisllingorpumping.Inconnection
with a turn table it can be neccessary to decrease the speed to be able to follow along.
PUMPING
When the machine should be used as a pump, press [PUMP/FILL]. To change the pump direction,
press [DIRECTION]. The arrow on the display now points in the opposite direction.
Press [START] to start the pump. The pump amount starts at 0 and then counts up. To stop the
pump press the [STOP/BACK] button. The pumped amount blinks on the display. If you want to
continue pumping, press [START], then the machine begins to pump again and the pump amount
counts further up.
To reset the pump amount, stop the machine and press [STOP/BACK] again.

ENGLISH
Mount the hose to the tting. It is important to mount
the hose clamp behind the bulge and to check for
cracks in the hose after!
Tip: warm the hose up with warm water before
pushing it over the pipe. This makes the mounting
easier.
Connect to the power supply. The power cord
(100-260V) must be placed in a way that it does not
pose a tripping hazard and so that the machine can
be cleaned safely (possibly hang it up). NOTE never
connect to power before the hose tting and anti-drip
cut-off valve with nut are mounted.
Optional: connect a foot pedal. Place a jar/bowl under the pump housing. Dilute the
pump housing with the desired substance that you
would like to ll. Fill it up all the way to the edge of
the tting.
Clean the pump housing, see page 18 point 7-18. Mount the pump housing to the machine. Remember
that the clutch teeth need to be in the right position,
otherwise it cannot be put on all the way. Make sure
that the machine is placed on a stable ground before
using it.
PREPARATION OF THE MACHINE

12
13
ENGLISH
Loosen the two screws in the legs (as you can see on
the picture above). NOTE never stick your ngers into
the space that opens up! You can injure your ngers.
The button in the red circle is used to adjust the
height of the lling machine. When you have set the
desired height, tighten the screws again as can be
seen in picture 1.
Connect the hose to the tank and the machine. The ttings can be tightened without tools. Grasp the
nut (red arrow) with your left hand and the tting/
hose with your right hand. Pull clockwise on the
tting and nut. This is how to tighten the tting
without using tools. Check the tank ttings as well!
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (DANA api MATIC 3000)
Set the machine to pump by pressing [PUMP/FILL].
Pump for 1-2 sec. and then ll up the pump housing
to the edge again.
Tip: for optimal operation we recommend that the
tank is placed on the same level with or above the
pump housing. Shown with a funnel here, which we
recommend for small lling amounts.

14
15
ENGLISH
Set the machine to ll with the [PUMP/FILL] button.
The display shows FILL.
Set a bigger container under the pump housing. Press [START]. Pump until the air is out of the system
and then press [STOP].
Open the valve of the container.
PREPARATION FOR FILLING
After the machine stops dripping, mount the cut-off
mechanism. Can potentially be mounted rst, but not
when lling very tough substances.
Se the machine to pump by pressing the [PUMP/FILL]
button. The display must show PUMP.
Remember to check if the pump direction is set cor-
rectly. Use the [DIRECTION] button to make a change.

14
15
ENGLISH
Choose the program closest to the desired lling
amount. Use the [PROGRAM] button. Press the [+] and [-] button to nd the desired program. Press [ENTER] to choose.
Put your jar on a scale and press [Z/T] (tara) to reset
the scale. Put the glass under the pump housing.
If necessary, press [+] and [-] to change the lling
amount. Press [ENTER] to save and exit. Before calibrating the machine, you need to start/
carry out a single lling into a bucket. Press [START].
Let the machine carry out a lling until it stops by
itself and carrries out the anti-drip function.
CALIBRATION

16
17
ENGLISH
Read the weight on the scale. Press [+] and/or [-] until the same number appears on
the display. Save by pressing [CALIBRATE].
Potentially repeat the calibration if the difference
between weight and lling amount is big. The machine is now calibrated and ready for lling.
The machine must be set to FILL and the desired
program. Press [START] or use the foot pedal. Put the lled jar back on the scale.

16
17
ENGLISH
Completely take the connection tting off. In case of dripping put a bowl or something similar
under the hose.
Unscrew the black nuts. Grasp the notches at the end of the pump housing
and gently pull the pump housing off the machine.
CLEANING
Start the machine to empty the container and hose. Loosen the connection tting so air can come into the
pump housing, but not so much that the honey starts
running out.
WARNING: Always disconnect the machine from the
power supply before taking the pump apart.

18
19
ENGLISH
Take off the cut-off mechanism. Rinse the pump with water while turning the
coupling. This loosens the honey so it is easier to
open the pump housing.
Open the pump housing. Take out the loose gear as well as the axis that are
still in the pump housing. It can be necessary to rinse
thoroughly with water to loosen the parts.
Go to the sink. Unscrew the lowest tting (nut).
