FIELD OF USE

The Vacuum packaging machine is designed and constructed for creating vacuum in bags and rigid containers.
The machine must not be used in other ways or for purposes other than that indicated by the manufacturer in this Manual. Conformant use of the
machine also involves abiding by and understanding the warnings and notices in this instruction Manual, as well as prompt checking, maintenance
and cleaning operations.
DANGER! The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons, animals and objects deriving from non
conforming use of the machine.
4. HANDLING AND UNPACKING
4.1

GENERAL WARNINGS

Pay attention to metal tips, nails, rivets, sharp edges and everything else that could be a potential source of risk on the packing. On receiving the
machine, the Client must check to make sure it is intact, and inform the haulage contractor, or the transport personnel immediately of problems, missing
parts or evident damage; this must be done before proceeding with other handling or unpacking operations.
WARNING: Damage, if any, on the packing may mean possible damage to the machine or its parts; in case of doubt
regarding the actual condition of the machine following transport, contact the manufacturer for information, before
carrying out any other operation.
WARNING: The packed machine must be kept in a safe, dry place, covered and protected from environmental agents. The
storage area temperature must be between 5°C and 40°C and the relative humidity not more than 80%.
4.2

UNPACKING

After removing the packing, check to make sure the machine is intact; do not use it if in doubt and contact the dealer immediately. The packaging
materials (plastic bags, etc.), must be kept out of the reach of children, and not dumped in the environment. Keep the packaging materials for future
handling or storage of the machine.
WARNING: Disposal of the packing materials must be done in accordance with the Directives on the matter applicable in the
country in which the machine is installed.
4.3

HANDLING AND STORAGE

- In case of transport within the installation area, the machine must always be kept in the horizontal position to avoid oil leaks from the pump. The
sealing bars and insertion plates must be fixed to prevent their shifting inside the vacuum chamber.
- In case of storage:
The machine must be stored in a safe place, suitable for the purpose, dry, ventilated, covered, and sheltered from atmospheric agents. The storage
area temperature must be between 5°C and 40°C with a relative humidity value not higher than 80%. The installation area must be free of water
and water vapour.
If a machine has remained unused for long periods, change the pump oil before re-using it, by following the instructions
given in the "MAINTENANCE" chapter.

INSTALLATION

5.1

APPLIANCE DESCRIPTION

LERICA Series vacuum packaging machines are meant for packing dry and/or cured products, thanks to the operating principle based on creation of
vacuum inside a chamber (or tray), inside which the product in a special bag or rigid container is placed.
If provided with a special valve, the machine can also be used for vacuum-packaging of products in the above-mentioned rigid containers outside
the chamber. As explained in detail in the "USING THE APPLIANCE" Chapter, some models can be used for creating a vacuum in special "channelled"
bags outside the vacuum chamber, thereby making it possible to pack products larger than the vacuum chamber dimensions.
The work cycles (vacuum, bag sealing, devacumation and opening the cover) are carried out automatically in sequence.
The functions can be programmed for up to a maximum of 10 programs.
