2.2. ELECTRIC CONNECTION
The electric connection of the machine must be on a 16A – 400V plug with a differential circuit breaker.
Before any intervention on the machine, make sure that every energy supply is cut (air and electricity).
GROUND CONNECTOR
All the machines must be connected to the ground when they work to protect the operator from electric shocks. Our machines are all equipped with standardized connection plugs.
The electric connection must be made by a qualified technician. It is forbidden to modify or dismantle the machine, especially the electric box.
Repairs must be made by an authorized center or our After-sale Service.
During any intervention on the machine, make sure that the ground is well reconnected.
EXTENSION CORDS
During the use of an extension cord, make sure that it is not crushed or damaged and that it contains aground. Check that the section of the used extension cord is sufficient to support the machine when it is working. A too-thin extension cord can cause voltage drops or overheat of the machine.
In case of use of a cable reel, it is imperative to unwind it entirely, otherwise, the equipment can be damaged. The section must be proportional to the length of the cord.
2.3. END OF LIFE OF THE PRODUCT
At its end of life, the machine must not be eliminated with the other household waste. The uncontrolled elimination of waste can harm the environment or human health.

USE OF THE MACHINE
4.1. PREREQUISITES
- The electric connection has to be 400 V – 16 A – 50 or 60 Hz with a 3 x 2,5 mm² cable reel of 40m maximum, completely unreeled.
- Turning button (N) to the MANU position will start the product pump.
- Turning button (N) to the ARRIERE position will cause the product pump to rotate in reverse.
- In AUTO mode, the pump starts only when the lance is open (when the compressor is running).
- In MANU mode, the pump runs continuously.
- After a prolonged standstill, it is possible that the pump might be blocked. If this is the case, alternately turn the pump forwards and backward for 5-second sequences. As soon as the engine starts to turn normally, the pump is unblocked.Never use petroleum-based products in the pump, as they may damage it.
Never run the pump without water or product. - In order to avoid condensation (and rust) in the compressor tank, make sure to unscrew and leave open the drain screw (I) when the machine is not in operation. Screw-in only when the machine is working or being transported.
- Check every month that the machine’s automatic lubricator is working properly. The level of grease in the cartridge should decrease steadily. The absence of grease can seriously damage the machine.It is imperative to replace the automatic motor flange lubricator (A) every 6 months.
Never use petroleum-based products in the pump, as they may damage it.
It is imperative to replace the automatic motor flange lubricator (A) every 6 months.4.2. STARTING UP
- Once the machine is connected, press button (K) to turn on the power, and the light lights up.
- Connect the hose to the outlet (C).
- Connect the lance to the end of the hose, without the nozzle.
- Set the product flow rate to 4 on the potentiometer (M).
- Prepare a slurry (the product to be used diluted with a lot of water) and pour it into the tank.
- Turn button (N) to the MANU position to start the machine.
- Wait for the slurry to come out regularly from the lance and pour it into a bucket.
- Before the tank is completely emptied of the slurry, pour the product to be sprayed into the tank.
- Put the button (N) back to the AUTO position.
- Close the lance and mount the nozzle.
- Connect the air hose to the quick coupling (D), then start the compressor using the button (L).
- The machine will start at the opening of the lance.
- Spray the rest of the slurry into the bucket. When the product arrives at the lance, the machine is ready to work.
- Button (O) turns on the vibrator which helps the product go down into the tank more easily.

MAINTENANCE
6.1. CLEANING PROCEDURE
Disconnect the machine from the power supply before any intervention.
Before unscrewing the hose, make sure it is not under pressure anymore.
- Set the machine to AUTO mode (button (N)).
- Unscrew the drain screw (I) in order to evacuate the air remaining in the tank.
- Remove the nozzle and lance and place them in a bucket of water.
- Disconnect the hose from the outlet (C).
- Remove the drain plug (H) from under the machine.
- Clean the inside of the tank with a water jet or high-pressure cleaner.
- Clean the pump nose (C).
- Put the drain plug (H) back and fill the tank with clean water.
- Put a cleaning ball in the pump nose (C) and reconnect the hose.
- Put the MANU mode back by pressing the button (N).
- Wait for the ball to come out of the hose.
- Put the machine back to AUTO mode.
- Repeat operations 9 to 12 a second time to remove the last residual product in the hose.
- Remove the plug (H) to empty the remaining water in the tank.
- Unplug the machine.
- Clean the lance and nozzle.
The direct projection of water under pressure onto the control panel has to be stopped at the risk of water infiltration into the electric box. Proceed by simply cleaning with a humid sponge.
6.2. CHECK-UP
- Every 50 hours of operation, remove the suction filter from the compressor and clean the filter element by blowing compressed air.
- Replace the filter element once a year (more often if the machine is used intensively).
