●
Use a wooden palette knife to
remove the rest of the soap stuck
to the press head.
●
Clean the mixing- and spaghetti
plates using water and a brush.
You could also use our handy aids
(item nos. ZXB-01002 or
ZXB-01003) to clean the mixing
plate.
●
Now undo the three bolts fixing
the screw housing to the motor
housing.
●
Carefully slide the screw housing
off the screw.
●
Clean the screw housing with
a damp cloth.
●
Clean the screw with a wooden
palette knife and/or a damp cloth.
We recommend that you lubricate
the screw’s rubber sealing ring
with acid-free Vaseline. Once you
have finished cleaning the machine,
it can be reassembled.
Do the following:
●
Carefully slide the screw housing
onto the screw.
●
Make sure that the screw housing
edge fits into the recess in the
motor housing and that the bolt
holes line up. Tighten the bolts
with the hex key.
●
Fix the ‘large mixing plate’ to
the front of the screw housing
with the larger sides of the holes
towards the screw.
●
Attach the press head to the screw
housing and make sure that
the electrical connection on the
press head is pointed sideways.
Tighten the bolts with the hex key.
●
Place the small spaghetti plate in
position and attach it evenly using
the four crosshead screws. Use
a no. 2 screwdriver to do this.
●
Reconnect the press head heating.
Warning:
Unattached and/or
insufficiently tightened bolts or screws
can cause irreparable damage to
the machine during operation.
The soap extruder is now ready for
further use. If it is regularly cleaned
following the above mentioned
procedures, the machine will remain
in an excellent condition.
●
Avoid damage to the electricity
supply cord during transport.
●
Make sure that the main switch on
the side of the motor housing is
in the off position before inserting
the plug into a socket.
●
Never connect the machine to
an unearthed socket!

Maintenance
1.1 Cleaning
Warning:
Place the main switch
in the ‘0’ position and unplug
the machine before removing any
components!
Warning:
Never rinse or submerge
any components in water, detergents,
etc. unless you are specifically
instructed to do so!
The machine must be cleaned under
the following circumstances:
1. When changing the soap colourant.
2. When deactivating the machine for
a long period of time.
Do the following:
●
Allow the machine to empty
almost completely. The machine
is almost empty when virtually
no more soap exits through
the extrusion plate while the
motor is running.
●
Turn off the heating and disconnect
the cord from the press head.
●
Undo the four crosshead screws
from the shape plate and place
these in a safe place. If one of these
screws were to end up in the
machine, it could cause irreparable
damage!
●
Turn the motor back on (Speed 1)
and allow the pressure to push the
shape plate from the press head.
●
Using the hex key provided, undo
the three hex bolts on the press
head and, once again, allow
the pressure of the soap to push
the press head off. Make sure that
it doesn’t drop off suddenly!
●
Turn off the machine and unplug it.
●
When removing the press head,
the ‘large mixing plate’ will detach
along with it. From the front,
push the remaining soap from
the press head. This is done more
easily once the press head has
cooled somewhat. A handy tool
(item no. ZXB-01001) is available
to assist you in doing this.
●
Adjusting remote pedal
operation
You can use this function to adjust
the operation of the remote pedal.
Press the right-arrow button to set
the pedal. If the ‘code’ = 1,
the pedal will function as a ‘pulse’
switch. The motor will then start
when you depress the pedal and
stop when you release it. If you
change the code to zero using
the ‘min’ button, the pedal will
function as a ‘latch’ switch.
The motor will then start when
you depress and release the pedal,
and will stop when you once again
depress and release the pedal.
You must confirm your selection
using the
‘ok’ button.
If you don’t press any buttons for a
period of 100 seconds, the display
will revert to the main screen.

Transport and installation
4.1 Transport
Warning:
Before moving the
machine, always make sure that it is
unplugged!
When moving the machine, always
take the following into account:
●
Never lift or move the machine by
its cables, knobs, switches or other
fragile components. The machine
is provided with two handles at
the front and one at the back.
●
Place a flat object underneath
the machine when it is being
moved using a pallet mover or
forklift. This is due to the ‘open
bottom’ of the motor housing.
●
Avoid severe vibration during
transport of the machine.
●
Avoid movement of the machine
due to vibration.
●
Only move the machine horizon-
tally and vertically.
4.2 Installation
●
Place the machine on a level
surface which can comfortably
support 104 kg and which has
sufficient sideways stability
(e.g. a worktable / -bench).
●
The area in which the machine
is placed must be adequately
ventilated.
●
Set up the machine in such a way
that all the controls are easily
accessible.
●
Make sure that all its feet touch the
surface. The feet can be adjusted
by screwing them in or out.
