GENERALSAFETYINDICATIONS
This manualis an integral part of the machine and must accompany it throughout its life. Before performing any
operation,read each and every part of this manualcarefully.
The company cannotbe held responsible for property damage,injuries or damage to the machine itself due to non-
compliance with the instructions found herein.
The machine must be installed in good workmanlike manner and only by qualified personnel.
The operating personnel must receive adequate training in use of the machine and must be in good psychological and
physical condition and must not be under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medications that reduce alertness.
The operator must be aware of the dangers derived from use of the machine.
4.01 Pictograms
The safety-related pictograms posted on the machine (when required) and their meanings are reported below. If
the pictograms become illegible, they must be replaced (under the customer's responsibility).
Danger due to a voltage of 230V
Do not use water to put out fires – use the forms ofextinguishing indicated in the
standards
Danger related to transport; follow the instructions given in the manual; indication of
the machine centre of gravity, to be used when positioning the forks of the transport
forklift truck
Danger of pinching/crushing limbs

4.02 Residual risks
The figure below displays the residual risks that the machine may present during transport, operation and
maintenance.
4.03 Demolition
If the machine is to be demolished, it mustbe taken apart and the metal parts — steel, aluminum and copper —
separated from the plastic parts in PVC.
Recover the grease from the gearboxes found in the labeling station movement mechanism casing.
Finally, take the separated materials to special waste disposal centres.
RISK OF TIPPING
AND BEING CRUSHED
DURING TRANSPORT
when the centre of gravity indicated
by the pictogram posted on the
machine and the warnings
for transport are not heeded.

CHAPTER 5
TRANSPORT ANDOPENINGTHE PACKAGE
WARNING: before moving the machine, make certain that the unit being used israted forthe weight of the machine (see
the “technical characteristics” table) and note the manufacturer posted centre of gravity pictogram on the machine.
5.01 Packaging
5.02 Handling the crates or boxes
When handling with a forklift truck, make certain that the forks are set
symmetrically vs. this centre of gravity. Moreover, the forks should be far
enough apart to preventthe load from swinging or tipping over during
transport.
5.03 Opening the package
When opening the package, make certain that the contents match what is indicated in the shipping documents,
that they are not damaged, have not been tampered with or anything else. This must be done in the presence of
the carrier making the delivery (see WARRANTY). Dispose of the packaging materials as outlined in the current
standards.

N.1 pallet

5.04 Handling the contents
Withdraw allthe material from the package and bring the machine to the point where it is to be used; this mustbe
done following the same precautions followed when moving the packaged unit.

CHAPTER 6
INITIALINSTALLATION
6.01 Arranging the area
Arrange an area suitable for operation of the machine (see the “technical characteristics” table) as per European
standard EN60079.
Setthe unit ata point wherethe lighting is notless than200 lux.
The power cable supplied with the unit is 5 metres long and has no plug (IEC 309 2P + T 230 V). Check the
distance for access to the electricalpanel for hook up.
Do not use extension cords of any sort, flat or winding, as there is the risk of overheating.
Also arrange for connection to a compressed air system (only with marker installed on the machine).
6.02 Positioning
Moving the machine very carefully, take it to the arranged position (see 5.03 Handling the contents).
Set the machine in a stable position, check that it is level, make any necessary corrections and then lock the
wheels or adjustable feet.
6.03 Electrical connections
Make certain that the power supply system has a differential circuit breaker and an earthing systemcompliant
with the standards.
Check the electric characteristics of the machine (see “technical characteristics”table) and check that the power
supply is suitable and compliant with Directives 98/37/EC (Machinery Directive), 94/9/EC (ATEX Directive),
89/336/EC (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive), 73/23/EEC (Low Voltage Directive).
After having checked the above, hook up the machine to the power supply using the cable and plug (IEC 309 2P
+ T 230 V) not provided.
6.04 Paper quality
If the quality of the paper used in the labels is not suitable for blade peeling, the labels can get twisted and
machine function will be poor. Always notify the label manufacturer of the problemof peeling.

6.05 Direction of paper winding
The rolls of labels (frontand back labels) must be printed and rolled up as shown below.

7.02 Description of the machine
This new model is really essential: our goal was to realize an extremely simple machine being able to work with
cylindrical container with a diameter between 35 mm and 120 mm. The base model can apply front and back
label, and, as the upper model LXT05, can work also with PET containers or containers made of low physical
resistance to pressure material. To be noticed is the stainless steel plate which retains the paper reel: it is
equipped with a friction system that let the paper roll scroll fluently, withoutbreaking the paper. The peeling blade
is made of stainless steel and, upon request, can be covered by a Teflon strip in order to reduce any paper
breaking even in case of particularly fragile papers. The paper detection photocell has a 40 mm height fork and is
auto-calibrating.
As it is really competitive on the market and basicly projected, this machine has no accessories except for the
stainless steel carriage.

CHAPTER 8
START-UP
After having installed the machine as described in chapter 6, you can proceed with start-up.
8.01 Turning the machine on and off
8.01.01PRELIMINARYOPERATIONS BEFORE TURNING THE MACHINE ON
To turn on the machine,you must:
-Trip the main circuit breaker photo 7.1 on the position 1.
-Disengage the emergency push-button Cphoto 7.7 on the upper side ofthe control panel.
8.01.02STOPPING THE MACHINE
It is possible to stop the machine while it’s working by acting on the emergency push button: in this case
all machine movement is stopped regardless of the work cycle progress status. It is not possible to know
exactly the work cycle phase when the machine has stopped, therefore, before turning on the machine, it
is necessary to raise the pressing roll, take the bottle off and re-position the label in order to make it stick
3-4 mmout of the blade(fig. 9.10 page 28).

CHAPTER 9
WORK CYCLE
The work phases for the labelling machine mod. M2R are listed below:
-Container loading
-Labelling
-Container discharge
9.01 Container loading
Open the pressing roll 1 and keep it opened
Insert the container in the labelling position
Pull the pressing roll down on the container: the labelling phase starts automatically.
Photo 9.1 Container loading

9.02 Labelling
Once you have inserted the container and pull the pressing roll down on it, the packaging goes ahead:
The container starts rotating and the selected labels are applied on it.
After all the labels have been applied,the container stops rotating to allow its discharge and the insertion
of a new container to be labelled.
