2.1 IMPORTANCE OF THE MANUAL
This "Use and Maintenance Manual" has been drawn up following the guidelines envisioned in the relevant European
Directives in order to guarantee simple and full understanding of the subjects by the operators authorised to operate
and perform maintenance on the machine in question. The manufacturer has prepared this manual with the greatest
care. However, should any operators find any part of the manual difficult to understand, they should contact the
manufacturer immediately and request explanations and/or further information in order to avoid misunderstandings
that might compromise the user's safety. Before using the machine, authorised operators must read and understand
this "Use and Maintenance Manual" in every part and strictly follow the Standards herein, in order to ensure their own
safety and that of others, to make the machine work at its full potential and to ensure a long-lasting and efficient
service life to all the machine parts. This manual should be safely stored and kept close to the machine at all times for
immediate consultation by operators.
Only specifically trained and authorised staff can operate and perform maintenance on the machine.
Operators must follow all the instructions regarding the prevention of accidents and the regulations on workplace safety in force
in the country of use.
The Manufacturer shall not be responsible for any damages resulting from changes made arbitrarily to the machine.
Users are advised to take note of the machine’s serial number; it must be presented along with every request for technical
assistance or for spare parts, and will facilitate processing such requests.
This manual reflects the latest information available at the time of marketing the appliance and should not be considered
inadequate only because it may be successively updated on the basis of newly acquired information.
Reprinting or reproducing this manual, in whole or in part, is not allowed unless authorized by ourselves in writing.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGES TO PERSONS, ANIMALS OR PROPERTY
CAUSED BY FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE STANDARDS AND RECOMMENDATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.

(FIG.04 REF.1) that facilitate manual lifting.
GIOTTO can be dismantled into 4 parts and transported separately:
- gear motor-mixer
- mixing chamber unit
- compressor
- frame with hopper

GIOTTO cannot be towed on the road. GIOTTO must be loaded, arranged and transported on a vehicle in compliance with the
highway code in force.
4.2 LIFTING
GIOTTO cannot be hoisted with lifting means such as, for example, a crane, as it is not equipped with
suitable hooks.

561379 - IS16/02 - EN
5.2 HOSES
Lay hoses optimising their length (transport and wear times are reduced), while making sure they are in good condition.
Only use original hoses and couplings. The hoses must be connected by TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE S.p.A.
or by companies expressly authorised by the former. In no case shall TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE S.p.A. be
liable for damage to persons or things caused by the use of non-original hoses or couplings.
5.3 COUPLINGS
Check couplings are always effective and clean.
Camlock fittings
Connect the hoses ensuring the presence of rubber gaskets (FIG.07-REF.1); fully tighten the levers (FIG.07-REF.2).
Always connect the longer hoses to the machine and the shorter ones to the gun.

5.4 CONNECTIONS
Electrical connection
- Connect the mixer’s motor gear power plug (FIG.08-REF.1) and the compressor’s power plug to the socket (FIG.08-REF.2).
Before connecting GIOTTO to the construction site’s electrical control board, make sure it complies with the current safety
regulations and directives.
The construction site’s electrical control board must comply with the regulations in force and have:
- enough power to supply the machine,
- adequate earthing,
- adequate fuses,
- highly-sensitive circuit breaker.
Connect GIOTTO to the construction site’s electrical control board with a H07RN-F marked neoprene coated cable (2P+T), with
a minimum section of:
2.5 mm² for distances up to 20 m
4 mm² for distances up to 35 m
6 mm² for distances up to 50 m
Using an electrical cable with inadequate section compromises machine operation.
- Connect the power cable to the socket (FIG.08-REF.3).

Other connections
- Connect the material hoses (FIG. 09-REF.1) to the delivery flange (FIG. 09-REF.2).
- Connect the water hose to the quick coupling (FIG. 09-REF.3) on the mixing chamber. It is usually connected to the top
connection.
- Connect the compressor’s air hose (FIG. 10-REF.1) to the compressor.
- Connect the gun’s air hose to the connection (FIG. 10-REF.2).
- Connect the gun (FIG. 10-REF.3) to the ends of the material hose (FIG. 10-REF.4) and air hose (FIG. 10-REF.5).

- Connect the water supply hose to the quick coupling of the water pump (FIG.11-REF.1).
When connecting the water pump to a container for the first time (or, however, after the hydraulic system is drained or a
prolonged stop), the pump must be primed in advance, otherwise the mechanical seal will be damaged.
To check that the pump is primed, water must come out when the cock is opened (FIG.11-REF.2).
The water flow used can differ from the above indications in relation to the length of the conveying hose line, wear of the pump
(screw and stator), and experience of the user.
The water entering the water pump must be clear and free of impurities. If the water network does not provide the required
water flow, use a 200 litre container with compensation function. The container must have a cock with float, it must be in a
raised position with respect to the stationing plane of the machine and the water draught must be at least 50 cm above the
connection (FIG.11-REF.1).
Draw water from it through the hose with filter (supplied).
