WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, serious injury or
death to persons when using your cylinder ironer, read
and follow these basic precautions:
1. Read all instructions before using the ironer.
2. Refer to the Grounding Instructions for the proper grounding of the ironer.
3. Do not iron articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
4. Do not allow children to play on or around the ironer. Close supervision of children is necessary when
the ironer is used near children. This is a safety rule for all appliances.
5. Check the operation of the safety nger guard at the beginning of every shift. Operating the safety
guard should stop the ironer immediately. If this safety feature is not working properly, employees must
shut off the ironer and notify the supervisor. Do not operate the ironer until the safety nger guard is
repaired and working properly. Be sure that all other safety features, including guards and panels, are
in place before operating the ironer.
6. Never service the ironer while it is running. Never reach over, under, or behind the safety nger guard
or into any area near hot surfaces or moving parts without rst shutting off the ironer at the switch and
power source. Follow this rule whenever working on the ironer to avoid serious injury from the ironer's
heat and/or pressure.
7. Never try to remove, adjust, or straighten jammed or misfed linen while the ironer is running.
Attempting to clear the jammed linen item can result in the user being caught in the linen and pulled
into the ironer. If something is jammed in the ironer, turn off the power before attempting to correct the
problem. Avoid contact with heated parts.
8. Protect yourself and fellow workers by making sure that everyone follows all the rules. Read and follow
all safety labels and warnings. Learn all aspects of the equipment such as what is hot, which parts
move, all safety shutoffs, and all emergency procedures. Do not come close to moving or heated
parts. Do not wear loose clothing, sweaters, jewelry or neck ties when near the ironer.
9. Frequent scheduled safety meetings are a must to review and update rules. If anyone is observed
breaking the rules, the supervisor or manager should be notied immediately. Reporting people for
rule breaking could save their lives or limbs.
10. Emergency shutoffs such as nger bars and emergency stop switches, should be painted red and
clearly labeled.
11. Maintenance personnel should work in a buddy system for mutual protection when working on a
ironer.
12. If in doubt, don't. Do not do anything until the supervisor or service-maintenance department has been
contacted. Only qualied personnel should service the ironer.
13. Do not install or store the ironer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
14. Do not tamper with the controls.
15. Do not repair or replace any part of the ironer, or attempt any servicing unless specically
recommended in this installation/operation manual.
16. To reduce the risk of re, DO NOT IRON plastics or articles containing foam rubber or similarly
textured rubber-like materials.

Initial setup of the machine
Transport and machine
fastening
The machine has been secured with bolts on a solid wooden frame and has been
safely packed in plastic sheeting from the factory.
During all transport and handling of the machine, there is a risk of the
machine tipping over or falling over onto persons. In order to avoid
accidents, the following should therefore be observed:
During transport and handling with a fork-lift truck, the forks should be
situated proportional to the center of gravity as shown below and on the
packing of the machine.
Never use lifting and hoisting material with a too small lifting capacity.
See paragraph 'Technical data' concerning the weight of the machine.
The max. weight of the machine including packing is stated on the packing
of the machine.
Never move the machine on inclined or uneven surfaces.
3
WARNING / DANGER
Important
We recommend to let the wooden frame remain bolted for the use of
transport with fork-lift truck, until the machine is near the place of setting up.
15
Setting up the machine
Preparation of the machine
- Inspect the machine by delivery on any damage.
- The machine can be moved by a manual pallet lifter.
- Remove the packing carefully and remove the parts on top of the machine.
- Place the machine on its nal position. Keep in mind that the sides of the
machine have to be free of any surroundings of at least 1 meter.
- The back must be at least 30 cm from the wall because of the turning cover.
Mechanical installation
- The machine has to be level. To check this, use a spirit level.
- The machine can be levelled by adjusting the four bolts under the machine.

Exhaust system
Whenever possible, install the ironer along an outside wall where duct length can be kept to a minimum, and
make-up air can be easily accessed. The construction must not block the airow at the rear of the ironer.
Doing so would prevent adequate air supply to the ironer combustion.
For maximum efciency, ironer air must be exhausted to the outdoors by the shortest possible route.
Note
Never connect an ironer duct at a 90° angle to the collector dust (see picture below).
Doing so will cause excessive back pressure, resulting in poor performance.
Never connect two ironer exhaust ducts directly across from each other at the point of
entry to the collector dust.

In order to ensure a satisfactory function of the machine exhaust system, the subsequent pipe system that is
installed in the laundry, should as minimum be dimensioned according to the following guidelines. If the pressure
loss in the piping system is increased as a result of dimensioning faults, this will cause a reduction of the exhaust
and thus the machine capacity.
In case of short distances between the ironer and the outlet to the outside, i.e. less than 15m including allowance
for bends, the exhaust pipe can be made as a channel with diameter 125mm for all machine types.
In case of longer distances, we recommend to use a larger pipe diameter. When judging the exhaust channel,
see the following tables that deal with pressure loss and the dynamic pressure by different pipe dimensions and
also deal with the equivalent pipe lengths for different part elements in an exhaust channel.
Dynamic pressure (Pd) in [Pa] and specic pressure loss (∆p) in [Pa/m] dependent on volume ow in m³/h and
pipe diameter (dia) in mm. S is the speed in m/s.

In general, we recommend that the pressure loss in the exhaust pipe is kept as low as possible.
If more machines are to be connected to the same exhaust channel, it is necessary to contact a ventilating rm that can
advise you with regard to the correct dimensioning of the exhaust channel.
The pressure loss in the exhaust channel can be calculated in the following way :
Pchannel = Pd + Iength channel x ∆p
If Pchannel > 300 Pa, we recommend to increase the pipe dimension.
For this purpose, a prefabricated transfer piece is to be used.
To avoid noise, we advise to keep the maximum velocity in the pipe under 12 m/sec.

Electrical installation
The customer must install a circuit breaker for each machine.
Compare the type of network and its voltage with the data mentioned on the machine and pay attention
to the instructions. For the connection, regulations according to VDE 0100 as well as the local valid
regulations of the energy providing premises are to be taken into consideration.
It is very important to have the electric connections done by a qualied technician, in order to make sure
that the installation is effected in accordance with the prevailing standards and instructions and the valid
instructions where the machine is to be installed.
Make sure that the voltage, which is to be connected, corresponds to the voltage mentioned on the
indication plate of the ironer inside the righthanded frame. The selected network connection cannot
be less powerful than the H07RNF according to the VDE 0282 and should have a minimum diameter,
which corresponds to the nominal electric power mentioned on the ironer.
Each machine must have a main switch. With this main switch, it is possible to cut the electrical
equipment from the mains, also by persons who have not been trained in the eld of electrotechnics.
This is necessary for cleaning, maintenance and reparation activities, both for the machine itself and for
the corresponding electrical equipment. In the guidance from the feeding to the electrical equipment, the
main switch is always behind the proper mains connection.
3
The main switch can also be applied in the supply guidance separately. It needs to be placed very close
to the machine so that there cannot be misunderstandings that the switch belongs to the machine.
When there are two or more main switches, there may not exist a dangerous situation when not all
the main switches are disconnected at the same time. For each main switch, there must be a warning,
which says that there is more than one feeding. If the main switches are placed far from each other
(not usual and not recommended), a supply will have to be made which separates the main switches by
disconnecting one of them. The control of this supply is in fact a safety-related control which applies
EN 954-1. In practice, the supply will often be executed in category 1 (EN 954-1) with bipolar contacts.
