Introduction

The User Manual contains useful information for the user on
how to work correctly and in complete safety, and is designed
to make it easier to use the machine (called «machine» or
«appliance» below).

What follows is in no case intended to be a long list of warnings
and constraints, but rather a series of instructions meant to
improve the service provided by the machine in every respect,
and particularly to avoid a series of injuries or damage to equi­pment that might result from inappropriate procedures for use
and management.

It is essential that all the people responsible for transporting,
installing, commissioning, using, maintaining, repairing or dismant­ling the machine should consult this manual and read it carefully
before proceeding with the various operations, in order to avoid
any incorrect or inappropriate handling that might be result in
damage to the machine or put people’s safety at risk.

Introduction

1.1 DESCRIPTION

The Multi Green is a food processor with two functions :

- Providing a «fresh cut» in the kitchen, for shredding, slicing and
grating (for the preparation of raw and cooked vegetables, fruits
and cheeses).

- The cutter equipment, for cutting, mincing and mixing (condi­ments, vegetables, meats, sauces, etc.).

Always ready and compact, it provides a rapid and economical
solution for the preparation of fresh food for catering.
Multi Green features :

1) The motor base

A Feet
B Casing
C Body
D Drive spindle
E Start - stop buttons

On button (green) marked ON

2.1 DIMENSIONS - WEIGHT (for information only)

• Gross weight when packaged : 15.5 kg/ Net weight 14.5 kg

• Dimensions of packaging in mm :
L : 500 l : 260 h : 440

2.2 LOCATION AND LAYOUT

• The Multi Green is to be fi tted on a table of between 700 and

900 mm in height. Its 4 feet ensure perfect stability

maximum height of 175 mm. If the bowl is higher than this, place
the machine on the edge of the table to discharge the products
above the receiving bowl.

It is just as important that the Manual should always be available
to the operator and it should be kept carefully where the machine
is used ready for easy and immediate consultation in case of any
doubt, or in any case, whenever the need arises.

If after reading the Manual, there are still any doubts concerning
how to use the machine, please do not hesitate to contact the
Manufacturer or approved After Sales Service provider, who
is constantly available to ensure quick and careful service for
improved machine operation and optimum effi ciency.

Note that the safety, hygiene and environmental protection stan­dards currently applicable in the country where the machine is
installed must always be applied during all phases of machine
operation. Consequently it is the user’s responsibility to ensure
that the machine is operated and used solely under the optimum
safety conditions laid down for people, animals and property.

2.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

ATTENTION !!

Connection to the electrical power supply must be done according to proper professional practice by a qualifi ed and authorised
person (see current standards and legislation in the country of installation).

If an adapter is used on the socket, a check must be made that the electrical characteristics of this adapter are not lower than
those of the machine.

Do not use multiple plugs
The AC power supply to the machine must comply with the following conditions;

- Maximum voltage variation: ±5%

- Maximum frequency variation: ±1% on a continuous basis, ± 2% over short periods

ATTENTION: the electrical installation must comply (for design, creation and maintenance) with the legal and standard
requirements in the country where used.

- Before connecting the machine to the electrical power supply, check that the voltage of the electrical system is the same as
that marked on the rating plate and the label on the power cable.

- The machine’s electrical power supply must be protected against voltage surges (short-circuits and excess voltages) by
using fuses or thermal relays of the appropriate gauge relative to the place of installation and machine specifi cations - see the
specifi cations shown in column F of fi gure 2.3a

ATTENTION: Concerning protection against indirect contact (depending on the type of power supply provided and
connection of the exposed conductive parts to the equipotential protection circuit), refer to point 6.3.3 of EN 60204-1 (IEC
60204-1) with the use of protection devices for automatic shut-off of power in the event of an insulation fault with a TN or
TT system, or, for the IT system, with the use of a permanent insulation or differentials controller for automatic shut-off.
The requirements of IEC 60364-4-41, 413.1 must apply for this protection.

For example: in a TT system, a differential circuit breaker must be installed upline of the power supply, with a suitable
power cut-off (e.g.: 30 mA) on the earthing installation for the place where it is planned to install the machine.

ATTENTION: Failure to comply with these instructions means the customer runs the risk of machine failure and/or acci­dents due to direct or indirect contacts.

• The machine is connected to a single phase supply by means
of a moulded 2 pin + earth plug 10/16A rating.

• Before connecting the machine to the electrical power supply,
check that the voltage of the electrical system is the same as that
marked on the rating plate and the label on the power cable.

• The machine must be protected by a differential circuit breaker
and a 16 A fuse.

The machine must be earthed using the green and
yellow wire

• Motor characteristics :

A Number of phases (1 single phase)
B Nominal voltage (Volts)
C Frequency (Hertz)
D Nominal power (Watts)
E Nominal current (Amperes)
F Size of fuse for protecting the electrical line (Amperes)
G Indicative electrical consumption (Kwh)

To PAT test the Electrolux Range of Food Preparation Equipment,
the PCB board needs to be disconnected before any test is done.
This is due to the fact that the boards are fi tted with a grounding
diode that can give incorrect result during such a test. Also on a
standard appliance a fl ash test of 25 amps and up to 3000v is
used but, as you would expect, to use this on equipment, which
has a printed circuit, board would be quite destructive to that
board. We would recommend the use of a PAT tester approved
for computer systems which use a lower rate of amps.

The appliance is perfectly safe and is CE certifi cated. There are
two ways to get overcome this problem.

· Disconnect the board as instructed and test using test for
PC’s,

· Or install the mixer on a fused spur (no plug) as this takes it
away from being a portable appliance and the PAT test is then
not needed.

Use, safety

Machine storage: -25°C to +50°C
Ambient temperature during operation: +4°C to +40°C

Clean the machine properly prior to its fi rst use
This machine is for professional use and must be used by staff trained to use, clean and maintain it, in terms or reliability and

safety.
Use the machine in adequately lit premises (See applicable technical standard for the country of use. In Europe, refer to standard

EN 12464-1)
When handling the machine, always check that the parts taken hold of are not mobile elements: risk of dropping and injury to

the lower limbs.
Uncontrolled closure of the lid or ram press involves a risk of crushing the fi ngers.

ATTENTION: Stop the machine before opening the cover

Never put a hand in the ejection area while the machine is in operation; risk of injury. It is strictly forbidden to put the safety
systems out of action or modify them: Risk of permanent injury!!!!

Check that the safety devices operate correctly each time before using (see paragraph on «safety system adjustments»).
Never put a hand, a hard or frozen object in the appliance
For health and safety reasons, always use a washable or disposable strong head covering that covers the hair completely.

ATTENTION: All operations, whether using, cleaning or maintenance, present risks of cuts; never force and always keep
hands a reasonable distance from cutting edges.

Always use appropriate protective equipment when carrying out these operations.

ATTENTION !!

The machine is not designed for use in explosive atmospheres.

3.1 USER SAFETY IS ENSURED BY :

- The braked stoppage of the motor when the feed arm is opened
so that there is no risk when loading.

- The motor not starting if either the hopper assembly or the
cutter cover is missing.

- The size of the small feed hopper for long vegetables and the
central opening of the cover.

- The absence of risk of access via the discharge chute due to
the design of the ejector and the discs.

- Respecting the instructions of this manual for the use, cleaning
