without any inflammable and explosive materials or gas. The machine may only be installed on smooth, flat non-
inflammable surfaces.

Leave a minimal space of 0,5m around the machine so that not to obstruct air outlets.
Working environmental conditions:

Temperature from + 5°C to + 40°C.

Relative humidity from 30% to 90%, without condensation.
The lighting of the operation room shall comply with the laws in force in the country where the machine is installed.
However, it shall be uniform and provide for good visibility in order to safeguard the operator‟s safety and health.
MACHINE SAFETY FACTOR = IP20
THE AERIAL NOISE MADE BY THE MACHINE IS LOWER THAN 70 dB

5.3. Users

5.3.1. Loading the oil in the pump (for mod. MV26X 120V / MV31X 120V only)

The pump provided with this machine is not filled with oil.
So, please, fill the pump with oil before connecting the machine.
This operation must be carried out by authorized personnel, following the instructions reported in the
machine user manual (paragraph 7.6) and in the pump instruction manual.

5.3.2. Electrical connections

OBSERVE HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS!
If the machine is not equipped with the power supply plug, use a plug that is suitable for the
voltage and amperage values described by the rating plate and that can comply with the
rules in force in the installation country.
GROUNDING OF THE UNIT IS OBLIGATORY!
Before executing electrical connections, make sure the mains voltage matches the one on
the plate on machine rear and that the ground contact complies with the safety rules in
force. In case of doubts about the mains voltage, contact the local public supply Company.
Insert the plug on the cable from machine electrical cabinet in a mains power supply socket
that can be reached easily by the operator.

5.3.3. Gas connections

When carrying out packaging operations in modified atmospheres, use specific gas for food package in
compliance with the rules in force about food additives in the country where the machine is used.
The gas, which consists of a mixture of nitrogen, carbon dioxide and, more rarely, oxygen and other gases, is a
"made to measure" gaseous mixture, depending on the product to be packaged.
Never use gaseous mixtures in presence of oxygen in a percentage higher than the atmospheric
one (~ 19%).
Connect gas attachment, in case the machine is equipped with such a device, to the gas cylinder through the proper
tube (H) (see chapter 1.3.).
Pressure of gas plant has to be set on about 2 atm., bearing in mind the max. working pressure is 4 atm.
If the pressure is not correct, act on the knob of the pressure reducer (R) (see chapter 1.3.).
