1.1 Installation
1.1.1 Unpacking of the unit
• For removing the unit off the box, don’t hold the machine on the dispensing edge to prevent
disadjustment off the machine.
• For mounting the machine, a complete system of holding tools is available. Ask your
representative.
• Take care that the machine is safe and stable mounted.
• There are rotating parts on the machine. Do the necessary actions to prevent that anybody
can be caught from these parts.
1.1.2 Connection of the machine
Before connecting the machine to the mains, check the correct setting of the line voltage. For
the connection of sensor, applicators e.g. see the chapter connections. Fix all cables to prevent
accidents and damaging of cables. Have also a look to the EMI chapter for proper machine
operation.
For checking of correct operation of sensors, applicators use the check functions SCHK, I_CH
and O_CH.

Normally the setting is done, but before operation check and note the general dispenser
configuration: dispenser direction, machine type, applicator mode, and APSF function.
