Obligations in case of malfunctions and/or potential hazards
The operators are obliged to signal to their line managers any deficiency and/or
potentially hazardous situation that should arise.
6.1 - User obligations
The user is obliged to timely inform the manufacturer if any defects and/or
malfunctions emerge on the accident-prevention systems, and on any other potentially
dangerous situation of which it may come to know.
The user and/or third parties (excluding the manufacturer’s duly authorised personnel)
are strictly forbidden from making changes of any type and entity to the machine and
its functions, as well as to this technical document. In the event of malfunctions and/or
dangers due to failure to comply with that stated above, the manufacturer declines all
responsibility for the resulting consequences. We suggest requesting any changes
directly to the manufacturer.
7 Problems and solutions
7.1 - Problems and solutions
1. After pressing the main switch the machine fails to start:
a) Verify that the plug is properly inserted into the power outlet and check the internal
contacts of the plug itself, where required.
2. The machine works properly, but when the cover is re-opened the package is
not sealed:
a) Lift the Teflon and check that the heating element does not have any interruptions
and that it is secured to the side clamps.
3. If the machine does not achieve an excellent vacuum
a) Close the lid and disconnect the line when a negative pressure of about 90% has
been reached. Check whether the vacuum percentage indicated on the display
remains fixed or decreases.
- In the first case, there are no leaks, therefore the problem has another source
(pump vanes, oil replacement).
- In the second case, there is the presence of air infiltration into the tank:
Check the membrane below the sealing bar, checking that it has no holes or is
ripped
Check the integrity of the sealing gasket positioned under the lid; if the afore-
mentioned pieces must be replaced, request them directly from the authorised
dealer.
WARNING!
In case the machine is turned off or there is a power outage during the vacuum
cycle, it may happen that the lid does not open due to the vacuum reached at
the time of switching off.
To open the lid is necessary to bring the pressure in the tank. Then turn on the
machine with the side button, after one second the drain valve opens and you
can re-open the lid.

5 Checks and maintenance
5.1 - Checks and maintenance
The machine’s internal mechanism must be accessed exclusively by our specialised
technician. If anybody else accesses the inside of the machine on their own initiative,
the manufacturer declines all civil and criminal liability for any accidents to people and
damages caused to objects. All electrical components are protected inside the
machine body and can only be accessed by unscrewing the protective guard: to
access the inside, pull the plug out of the electrical panel.
5.2 - Maintenance
1. Clean the sealing bar and the silicone counter-bar every 15 days using methylated
spirits.
2. Change the oil as during the initial start-up setting.
For Easy models, as set by the manufacturer, the display will show the “change
oil” message after every 2,000 cycles.
The user must contact the dealer, who will check the efficiency of the oil and
replace it if necessary.
3. Replace the heating element, Teflon, sealing bar and the seals of the cover roughly
every 200 hours of operation.
4. Replace the silicone counter-bar roughly every 100 hours of operation.
5. Check the pump vane, filters and the tightness of the pneumatic solenoid valves
roughly every 35,000 hours of operation.
5.2.1 - Vacuum pump
To protect the vacuum pump and prolong its service life, strictly observe the following
instructions:
- Do not suck up water vapour, liquids or any type of flour. This will deteriorate the
pump oil’s viscosity and damage the pump itself.
- Periodically check the level of the pump oil through the oil level indicator.
a level below the minimum can damage the pump
a level above the maximum can damage the pump filter and the pump itself
- Periodically check the colour of the pump oil. It the oil appears cloudy, dark or
emulsified, it must be replaced immediately.
- Replace the pump oil every 2 / 4 / 6 or 12 months depending on use and the
appliance’s location, or when the “change oil” message appears on the display. It
may even be necessary to change the pump oil every month.
- Replace the pump oil before an extended shutdown.
WARNING!! Given that the vacuum packing machine is almost always installed in the
kitchen, an environment dense with water vapour and humidity, the level and quality of
the pump oil must be checked constantly and the oil replaced frequently and regularly.

4.5 - Packing of liquid or semi-liquid products
With our vacuum packing machines it is possible to vacuum-pack liquid or semi-liquid
products (soups, sauces, condiments, etc.), extending their life and preserving their
flavours and hygiene.
In these cases, it is important to remember that the bags must never be filled all the
way but only to 50% of their capacity, taking care to keep the edge at a different height
with respect to the sealing bar.
1. The vacuum cycle is programmed as described in the par. 4.2.
2. Since liquids cannot be compressed, they do not need to be packed in a modified
environment, that is, with the addition of inert gases.
3. All the packages can be stored in a cold room and stacked normally on top of one
another.

1.4 - General warnings and manufacturer’s liability limits
Every man-machine interaction in the context of the machine’s intended use and along
its entire life has been carefully and thoroughly analysed by the manufacturer during
the design, construction and instruction manual drafting phases. Nevertheless, nothing
can replace the experience, adequate training and, above all, “common sense” of the
people who interact with the machine. These requirements are deemed indispensabile
both during every operating phase of the machine and when reading this manual.
Failure to observe the precautions or specific warnings given in this manual and use of
the machine by inadequate personnel breach all the safety rules concerning the
design, construction and intended use of the supply and releases the manufacturer
from any responsibility in case of harm to people or damage to objects.
The manufacturer therefore shall not be held liable for any consequences
stemming from the user’s failure to observe the safety precautions given in this
manual.
1.5 - Machine description
The bell-shaped vacuum packing machines we manufacture are state-of-the-art and
feature an interchangeable modular board with fully electronic controls, which are
therefore not subject to wear. The electronically controlled sealing unit consists of a
stainless-steel bar with flat heating element (5 mm) which, thanks to the excellent
6
pneumatic system installed, guarantees balanced and uniform sealing on any type of
bag used (nylon, polyethylene, Cryovac).
The vacuum pumps adopted are highly up-to-date and guarantee, along with an
extremely high degree of final vacuum, an astonishingly low level of noise despite
working with uninterrupted cycles.
The models appearing in this manual are manufactured in conformity to UL and CSA
norms and subsequent amendments.
If any accident occurs, the manufacturer shall not be held liable if the machine has
been modified, tampered with, had its safety guards removed or is used for purposes
other than the intended use specified by the manufacturer.
1.6 - Intended use
The machine is designed and manufactured for vacuum packing of products according
