Safety Precautions
RECOMMENDATIONS
• Do not place the edger near or on top of a source of energy (radiator or heater).
• Make sure your voltage source corresponds to the voltage specified on the identification
plate, located at the rear of the machine.
• If the machine is not going to be used for a long period of time you should unplug the power
cords from the wall outlet.
Briot does not assume any responsibilities or liabilities for damages caused by
negligence or ignoring the safety precautions enlisted in this manual.
INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Installation Conditions
Before installing the machine, make sure the bench is made up of the following components:
• The bench
The bench receiving the machine must be steady and level and have a free space
of about 800 x 700 mm.
• The electricity
1 socket: 2P+T - 16 A - 220 V or 110 V protected with a differential circuit breaker
of 30 mA. It is important that the socket be well EARTHED.
• The water
¾A water intake with a stop valve equipped with a 20x27 mm male connector.
This valve must be kept for the machine and drilled at 80 cm maximum from
the place provided for the machine. It must be easily accessible and be closed
when the machine is not in use.
For a well functioning of the machine, the maximum water supply pressure must be
between 4 and 7 bar.
¾A water outlet of 80 mm diameter or greater. The drainage slope must be at least 5%
to ensure proper evacuation of the refuse.
¾For machine type Polycarbonate, provide a place under the machine with a minimum
of 600w x 510h x 460d mm to place the water container.
• The pump
Briot supplies pump systems especially made for the required water supply to Accura
and for filtering of the edging waste, with the following dimensions.
9 Width: 600 mm (24”)
9 Depth: 400 mm (16”)
9 Height: 800 mm (32”).

Adjustments
Use the water supply adjustment wheels and observe the following instructions:
Types Description
Main watering and visor
(1)
The water supply must be:
• sufficient to lubricate the edging point properly.
Accura
• sufficient to irrigate the visor evenly.
Watering at the back of
the edging unit (2)
The water supply must be sufficient to evacuate the polycarbonate
shaving that hit the base of the edging unit.
It must not be too plentiful to avoid the formation of a mist that could
moisten the TP rough edging wheel and create an undesirable
“ribbon” edging of the polycarbonate.

Precautions for use
RECOMMENDATIONS
Installation and starting
• Do not place the edger near or on top of a source of energy (radiator or heater).
• Make sure your voltage source corresponds to the voltage specified on the identification
plate, locatedat the rear of the machine.
• If the machine is not going to be used for a long period of time you should unplug the power
cords from the wall outlet.
Performance of a job
1. Clean the frames in the ultrasonic cleaner before tracing.
2. Use new adhesives.
3. Change the blocks regularly. Their lifespan is 100 blocking operations.
4. Close the visor regularly to ensure it is automatically rinsed (this starts automatically when the
visor is closed for more than 5 minutes).
CAUTION
Do not use any type of spray hose to clean your system. Avoid any heavy splashing or
spraying that may penetrate the system's scanning and keyboard/interface. This can
cause electrical damage to the system.
Never use chemical solvents, agents or derivatives of such products as:
Acetone
Trichlorethylene
Benzene
Kerozene
Lighter Fluid or
any product bearing the notice "Do not use on plastic or painted surfaces".
any product with a CHLORINE, AMMONIA or SODA base.
These products directly or even by their simple vapors:
risks altering the structure of synthetic materials used.
Usage of any of these materials WILL VOID ANY GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY OF THE
WHOLE UNIT OR ITS COMPONENTS.
Never manipulate the lens feeler pliers located in the edging station.
THE MANUFACTURER CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED
BY THE USE OF THE EDGER IF THE SAFETY REGULATIONS AND THE PRECAUTIONS
FOR USE ARE NOT OBSERVED.

Important notes
o Mind the adapters!
Risk of collision of the adapter with the wheels.
Mind the lens clamping adapters for each type of job you are working on.
Two types of “small” adapters are used on the machines: Ø19 mm and Ø17 mm – flat.
The use of the 19mm adapters when the 17mm – flat ones are required will cause a collision of the
adapters with the wheels!
• Use the 19mm adapter when the message “Small adapter mounted?” is displayed.
• Use the 17mm adapter when the message “Small flat adapter mounted?” is displayed.
Do not open visor while edging, or put your hands inside the edging unit.
If you want to open the visor, refer to paragraph Visor safety below.
o Clamping safety
The following controls make it possible to ensure optimal operator safety.
Rotation of the edging wheels:
• The main motor will not start until the visor is closed.
• Manual opening of the visor stops the wheel motor. The clamping shafts open half-way.
Clamping:
• To clamp the lens you have to hold the key
