1. EXPECTED MACHINE USE AND DON’TS. This machine has been made and designed for industrial washing or cleansing in a water bath of linen and textile materials only. Linen and textile materials must be free from solvent impregnation or explosives. Any other use will be considered contraindicated without the written authorization of the manufacturer. Under-loading as well as overloading is not recommended. Always endeavour to meet the capacity of the machine. It is not recommended to wash the linen inside bags. Should it be necessary, load the machine up to its nominal value. It is not recommended to spin carpeting, canvas or waterproof fabrics.

2. Machine MATERIALS in contact with wash products are:

 Stainless Steel AISI-304 L  Aluminium in models HS-6008 & MS-610 (EH020 & EM025)  EPOXY coating on steel (in some models)  Polypropylene PP  EPDM and NBR  Borosilicate glass

3. The user must inquire the chemical product supplier about the risks of chemicals and its combination. The user is responsible to assure that products ARE COMPATIBLE and will not produce machine oxidation or damage either to people or to the washer. Notice that the hypochlorite (bleach), in certain conditions of use, generates chlorine gas. The chlorine is a corrosive and oxidizing substance that, in elevated concentrations and temperature, deteriorates the stainless steel and elastomers. There are other highly oxidizing agents, such as the ozone, that can cause the same effect.

4. Periodically CLEAN the machine. You will prevent metallic parts corrosion and produce higher output and have a longer life. To clean the washing machine, use water and detergent, rinse with a damp cloth, and dry. Cleaning with water jet or pressure steam is forbidden.

5. Once the wash cycle has finished, THE WASHER DOOR SHOULD REMAIN OPEN.

 Allows for the ventilation of the washer interior  Avoids the appearance of harmful micro organisms  Extends the lifetime of the door joint

6. NEVER use harsh products to clean the machine and laundry room. There are products on the market, which are highly corrosive.

7. If machine is left idle for long periods of time, it must be PROTECTED from humidity and temperature variations.

8. FOLLOW the fabric care instructions supplied by the manufacturer. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES ANY RESPONSIBILITY IN CASE OF TEXTILE WEAR AND TEAR.

9. Failure due t o im pr oper machine operation may VOID WARRANTY.

10. Replacing any part of the washer can affect the machine’s security.

Examples:

 Just a screw or bolt of insufficient strength could cause dangerous damage.  A heater without an internal fuse could provoke a fire.  An inadequate clamp can be the caus e o f wat er leaks and short circuits, et c.

The reason for which ONLY ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS MUST BE USED

The incompliance of this precaution may result in a washer breakdown, a serious accident, and loss of the warranty.

1. DESCRIPTION

WASHER EXTRACTOR DESIGNED TO WASH OR TREAT FABRIC IN A WATER BATH.

1.1. Characteristics

Construction characteristics:

 Washers, capable of extracting with speeds above 350G without having to be bolted down. The design of its

suspension system: multi-directional springs and shock absorbers to cushion up to 95% of the vibrations produced during the spin cycle.

 Stainless steel inner and outer drum. The openings in the drum blades promote the uniform distribution of

bath water and improve the yield of the washer both during the wash and the rinse cycles.

 The drum rotation is produced by an asynchronous motor of alternating current controlled by inverter.  Hot and cold water connections with a safety mechanism to prevent contaminating by back-flowing into the

general potable water system.

 Large capacity drain valve.  Water inlets and all product dispensers done using a common collector with an anti-siphon mechanism.  Option for heating the bath using electric heaters or steam injection.

Functional characteristics

 Operation control of the washer by microprocessor.  Operation of the washer adaptable to the possibilities of the installation and the needs of the user.  Temperature control mixes hot and cold water in accordance with the programmed temperature and the

activation of the heating system. Precision of +/- 2º C (+/- 3.5ºF) .

 Level control done with an electronic pressure transmitter.  Serial communication between the washer microprocessor and the inverter control of the motor. This

communication takes advantage of all the features offered by inverter technology which results in a significant energy savings and an optimal management of the spin cycle. This in turn implies a significant reduction in noise, vibration and wear on the washer components.

 Washing programs: availability of twenty pre-programmed programs.  Seventy-nine free programs, programmable by the user.  Programming, copying, modifying and erasing menus. These menus are viewed in graphic mode. This type

of viewing facilitates understanding the different operations.

4.9. UNBALANCE CONTROL

Before star ting spin, the electronic control of the washing machine checks the correct distribution of the load. If it detects that the load is not well distributed and that can cause an excessive unbalance during the spin, a new positioning of the clothes will be carried out. If there’s still unbalance during the spin of the last phase, the washer can end the washing cycle reducing the spin speed. Three unbalance levels, which cause different reactions in the washing machine, have been established. The unbalance level detected is viewed on the INFO screen when the washing machine executes the spin cycle.

 NO unbalance:........ ...allows any spin cycle

 LOW unbalance:........allows medium speed spin cycles and high speed spin cycles after a certain number

of attempts.

 MEDIUM unbalance:..allo ws medium speed spin cycles; after a certain number of att empts, it reduces the

speed of the high spin cycles

 HIGH unbalance:.......does not allow the spin cycle

As a safety feature, a microswitch monitors the movement of the washer suspended group. It is only activated in cases of extreme unbalance. This device prevents executing spin cycles.

To improve the efficiency of the spin of the washer it’s advisable to:

 Load the washing machine up to its nominal value, using the total capacity of the drum.  Load the washer with homogeneous loads

4.10. MACHINES WITH TILT SYSTEM

The TILT SYSTEM is made up of a pneumatic actuators system and an auxiliary electric control that allows the tilting of the washer forwards and backwards to assist loading and unloading while the door of the machine is open. At the same t i me, operatin g the corresponding control devices, the drum rotation at low speed can be started. With the machine at the loading position, a water inlet can be opened (cold or hot) to soak the dry linen and reduce its volume. The maximum water level allowed in this situation is limited by program. The water used during this process will be kept inside the washer when a new cycle is started. To drain the water used during the loading process, turn off and on again the O/I switch on the control panel of the machine. To use the TILT system control, the optionalA10 (TILT) board must be installed and approp riately ac tivat ed on the SETUP menu.

ATTENTION! Because of the washer's tilting movement, there is crushing and shearing hazard between the tilting elements and the building elements.

To prevent them, please follow these instructions:

 Keep away from the rear of the washer during the tilt movement.  The TILT SYSTEM has JUST been designed as a system to facilitate the washer's loading and unloading

operations.

 DO NOT USE the washer until all the guards are properly located and adjusted  In particular take special care to the tilt hinge guards.  DO NOT MISLEAD NOR CANCEL THE POSITION DETECTORS located on the machine brackets.  DO NOT MISLEAD NOR CANCEL THE PUSH-BUTTON that activate the drum's rotation with the door

open.

 The pressure of the pneumatic circuit specific for tilting is controlled by a pressure regulator located on the

electrical panel, with a fixed adjustment of 5 kg/cm REGULATOR.

 TO AVOID THE RISK OF DRAGGING, NOBODY MUST TOUCH THE LINEN WHILE ACTIVATING THE

DRUM ROTATION DEVICE

 Because of the facility of rotating the drum with door open, during loading and unloading operations NEVER

MORE THAN ONE PERSON WILL OPERATE WITH THE MACHINE.

 The washer is protected against possible incorrect handling, so machine must be in horizontal position

before selecting a tilting movement or starting a wash program.

 To prevent accidents resulting from getting trapped between the door and the opening for loading,

before any tilting movement is started, secure the washing machine’s door by means of the hook located on its right side.
