Installation
Operation
Important: If the machine or some of its parts fail, call your Omcan for repairs.
Note: for machines with three-phase power supply: in case of counter rotation, invert two phases of
the power supply plug. Check bowl rotation each time you replace the power supply plug or change
power mains socket.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
The machine, pallet-mounted at origin, is shipped enclosed in an appropriate packing and strapped to the
wooden pallet itself. When unloading the machine from the transport vehicle, lift from the points marked on the
packing using suitable equipment. Unless you need to check its contents, you are recommended not to open
the packing until the moment of installation. To transport the machine to the installation site, use a trolley of
adequate carrying capacity. Remove straps, packing and polystyrene strips. Dispose of this material according
to the regulations in force. Lift the machine and place on the installation site. Remove the supporting pallet
using straps of suitable carrying capacity (approx. 6 times the weight of the machine). These will have to be
slipped under the spiral holder head. The whole operation is to be controlled by adequate manual or power-
driven lifting equipment.
PREPARING THE MACHINE
Prepare the machine before every process cycle. BE SURE that the machine, especially parts which come in
contact with food products (spiral, bowl and column) are clean and sanitized; where necessary clean with hot
water and spirit.
Clean with machine off.
OPERATING THE MACHINE
After having ensured perfect cleanliness of the machine, proceed with dough-making operations as required.
LOADING AND STARTING
Press the stop push button to make sure the machine is off. Raise the bowl guard until it stops against the
rubber rest. Load the machine with ingredients of the type and quantity required. Lower the bowl guard on its
rest. Press the start push button.
CAUTION: the machine will run only if the safety microswitch is serviceable and in position.
MACHINES EQUIPPED WITH TIMER
For machines equipped with control timer, before pressing the start push button, set the required time. When
set time runs out the machine stops automatically. In the event that you need to use manual controls, eliminate
timer operation by setting to “SER.CONT” or “POS.MAN.”
