Operating; Before First Use - Bartscher 103.065 Mode D'emploi

5.3 Operating

Before first use

•
Wash the device prior to first use (see 6.2 „Cleaning").
•
While heating, the device may emit an unpleasant odour resulting from the heating of
insulation material. For this reason, we recommend heating the device without plates
for around 2 hours prior to first use.
Adjusting leads
•
The leads in the plate chambers are adjustable. They should be adjusted to suit the
circumference of the plates. The maximum circumference is 300 mm.
•
To properly adjust the leads, lift them up and then move until the proper size is
reached. Next, lock the leads back into position.
WARNING! Danger of injury!
To prevent plates from sliding around, ensure that each lead is properly secured.
Improper adjustment of leads can cause a platform to lock up or release at
unexpected moments, which may result in serious bodily injury as well as damage
to the device.
Regulating the height of the plate platform
•
The height of the plate platform is regulated by springs that connect the platform to
the upper surface of the casing.
•
The unit is equipped at the factory with the appropriate amount of springs. Prior to
first use, check the unit's performance as delivered and with the use of your own
plates.
•
Place 11 plates on the platform.
•
The height is properly set if approx. 4-5 plates are located above the upper edge of
the casing.
•
If fewer or more than 4-5 plates are located above the upper edge of the casing,
remove all the plates and adjust the springs.
•
Remove the plate platform.
•
To adjust the height of plates placed inside, individual springs may be suspended or
removed.
•
Remove the springs from the inside to the outside. When removing springs, always
begin from the one located on the inside.
•
To ease the removal of springs, remember to start at the lower mountings.
