N.B.: it is advisable to avoid connecting a water
softener as the use of treated water in small
electrical boilers causes
copious quantities of foam which is drawn in to
the machine when
consequent damage to the clothes.
In the case of excessively hard water(more than
17° French=12° English), a water softener may
be installed to reduce the dissolved salts by no
more than 10° (French) or 7° (English).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

(SEE DRAWING PAGE 10-4)
Ensure that the mains voltage and phase
correspond with the data given on the machine
specification plate (see page 2-1)
Prepare an electrical
indicated on the table.
Insert the cable in the holder "POS. 8" and
connect with the clamps to the electrical current.
The electrical supply line must be fitted with an
automatic differential heat safety cutout switch
30 mA with a mechanical plug and socket block.
The machine as per the rules in force must be
connected to a good earth, or the guarantee will
not be honoured.
Before first testing the machine, check that none
of the electrical connectors have worked loose
during transport.
After connection to the electricity supply, check
the rotation direction of the motors.
Replace all the panels and protection devices
when the electrical connections have been
completed.
After connection to the electricity supply, check
the rotation direction of the motors (vacuum).
If the direction is wrong, invert the connection of
two of the three phases supply wires.
Refit all the panels and protection devices when
the electrical connections have been completed.
COMPRESSED AIR
CONNECTION
(SEE DRAWING PAGE 10-3)
The machine needs to be fed with clean
compressed air, without condensation or oil, at a

line dimensioned
pressure of 7 bars (100 psi).
Fit a rilsan or zinc-platted 1/4" gas pipe to within
of
1 meter of the machine.
Assemble a three-way ball tap or a sliding tap on
its end "POS. 25".
This 3-way ball valve serves to feed the machine
(position 1=ON=OK) or to turn off the supply
(position 0=OFF=STOP) by discharging the air
remaining in the machine through the silencer.
This ensures that whenever any maintenance is
required, there is the guarantee that there is no
danger from compressed air (jets of air, etc.)
simply by turning the air ball valve to the
0=OFF=STOP position (or letting the ring nut
slip).

BOILER WASHING
(SEE DRAWING PAGE 10-3)
When a new machine is installed, or when
restarting after it has been stopped for more than
one week, the boiler must be thoroughly washed.
The procedure is as follows:
a) Turn on the boiler and bring it to a pressure of
approximately 2 bars (30 psi).
b) Turn the boiler off and drain the water into
the main drains or drainage tank half
opening the tap "POS. 17", taking care not
to burn yourself (to this purpose use the
special insulating gloves to avoid burning).
c) When all the water has been drained, turn
off the drainage valve "POS. 17. The water
will probably be a dark colour.
d) Turn the boiler on again and bring it to a
pressure of 2 bars (30 psi).
e) Repeat the cycle of points b) - c) - d) four
times.
become cleaner. If it is still dirty, repeat the
washing cycle another 3 or 4 times, until it is
completely clean.
If the boiler is not washed as described above
there is the risk of dirty water being siphoned
