Top-quality components, craftsmanship and a modern ergonomic design all serve to guarantee a long service life and a high degree of user friendliness.

The machine is furnished with a CE mark.
Warranty regulations
In these warranty conditions, ‘F&FM’ is understood to mean Fast & Fluid Management. The warranty conditions incorporated into F&FM’s general conditions of sale are summarized as follows (for free general conditions you can contact F&FM):
F&FM guarantees the proper operation of any goods which it supplies, for a period of one year, except where a breakdown is the result of normal wear and tear. The cost of any inspection activities carried out by F&FM, with the aim of establishing whether or not a breakdown is covered by the warranty will be reimbursed by the other party if it transpires that the breakdown is not covered by the warranty. If it transpires that a breakdown is covered by the warranty then F&FM will supply identical or equivalent goods under the conditions referred to in point 6 of the general conditions of sale. The warranty obligation described in this article only applies if the goods supplied by F&FM have been used in accordance with the manual. Time spent on warranty-related activities, including travel time, travel costs and accommodation costs, are charged at current rates.
In contrast to the above, F&FM will not be held to any warranty obligation if:
1. Repairs have been carried out, or attempted, by the other party or a third party, unless F&FM had previously declined to repair the goods for a fair price;
2. F&FM demonstrates that the defect did not emerge during testing;
3. The other party fails to inform F&FM of the defect immediately, if possible either by letter and/or by fax, providing full, accurate details and/or has failed to comply fully with F&FM’s instructions;
4. The other party has failed to use or treat the goods properly or in accordance with F&FM’s instructions;
5. The damage has been caused by incidents, beyond F&FM’s supervision, which have occurred either during transport or installation.
In the following text, the expression “Software” will be understood to mean the standard computer soft­ware supplied by F&FM to the other party, recorded on a computer-readable storage medium, plus the ac­companying documentation (Software Manual) and including any improved and/or new versions supplied. The expression “processing unit” (PU) is understood to mean the machine for which and with which the Software is supplied, and which is the sole machine on which the Software may be used.
The other party is authorized to copy the Software either in its entirety, or in part, (up to a maximum of 2 copies) for purposes of internal security. These copies will be furnished with the same marks, designations relating to copyright and other registration numbers as the original version of the Software.
The other party will neither amend, translate, decompile nor adapt the Software, nor convert it into sour­ce code, without express written permission from F&FM. If the other party so requests, F&FM will provide that party with the information required to render the Software interoperable with other software.
In the event that the PU experiences a breakdown, the other party may use the software on another processing unit until the PU is again operational. The other party will inform F&FM of this within 5 days.
If it is a requirement that the Software be defi nitively transferred from the PU to another processing unit then the other party shall request permission from F&FM, which will not withhold such permission on un­reasonable grounds.

Safety Instructions
Attention! Before installing the equipment and setting it in operation, please read the instructions for use carefully. This is safer for yourself and prevents unnecessary damage to the machine.
The manufacturer accepts no liability if the instructions below are not followed:
1. If a machine has been damaged (during transport, for example), do not attempt to set it in operation. When in doubt, fi rst contact either your supplier or the F&FM service department.
2. The equipment should be positioned and connected up in strict accordance with the installation instructions.
3. All local safety regulations and ordinances should be observed.
4. The machine may be connected only to a 230V/16A/50Hz or 110V/25A/60HZ earthed wall socket in­stalled in accordance with the regulations.
5. Users should see to it that the machine is kept in good condition. Defective components should be replaced.
6. In order to prevent physical injury, the doors should be closed and the paneling fi tted during normal use.
7. All service activities (other than routine maintenance and adjustments) may only be carried out by­qualifi ed technicians. See to it that the mains lead is always kept unplugged while repairs are being carried out.
8. Because of the design of the valve, a nozzle drill may never be used. Cleaning is done by running the­cleaning program.

Operation
Switching ON: Unlock the emergency stop button on the front of the machine by turning clockwise. The machine is automatically switched on when the power con­nector at the back of the dispenser is plugged into a 220V or 110V wall socket.
Please be aware that the TintMaster series dispensers are fi tted with sleeping timers as standard. This means that after approximately 30 minutes the dispenser will enter a power saving modus in which all secondary units (e.g. sensors) are switched off automatically.
>
Stirring is not affected by this modus. To awake the dispenser from its sleeping modus, perform any command from the dispensing software or press either of the can table buttons.
Switching OFF Please note that with normal operation there should be no reason to take the power off the dispenser. In case the dispenser must be switched off, there are several ways of achieving this:
1. Shut down the computer and unplug the power connector at the back of the machine.
2. Shut down the computer and switch the internal power socket behind the bottom service panel at the front of the machine.
3. Shut down the computer and press the emergency stop button.
Caution! Switching off the dispenser with the emergency stop switch will also cause the stirring mechanism to be turned off.
Agitation timer
The stirring time and interval can be altered from its default settings*. This can be done through the dispenser software, check your software manual for instructions. Please ask your paint supplier for optimal agitation settings for your specifi c colorant products.
>
* Default value is 180 seconds of agitation every 3 hours.

Troubleshooting
Before calling your supplier or the service department, please check if you can solve the problem yourself. If that does not work, you can call the service department for advice. Have the serial number and dispenser type ready (these can be found on the silver CE sticker at the behind the service panel at the front of the machine). Use the table below to determine whether you can solve a problem yourself or if you need to call the service department. You should never remove side panels from the dispenser, only certifi ed personnel are allowed to do this. This table does not contain any error codes from the dispense software; please consult the software manual for these.
Caution! MOVING PARTS CAN CAUSE INJURY. Always switch off the power (e.g. with the emergency stop) before approaching moving parts.

WEEE
Packaging material
The packaging protects the machine against damage during transport. The packaging material was chosen based on its limited impact on the environment and its inherent possibilities for waste-disposal. The reuse of packaging material saves raw materials and produces less waste material. Generally speaking,your supplier will take the packaging off your hands.
Discarding the Machine
Discarded equipment usually still consists of valuable materials. For this reason, do not simply throw your machine out with the oversized refuse, but ask your supplier whether he will take the machine back. If he will not, then enquire at your local government offi ces or ask a trader of raw materials what options thereare for recycling the material (e.g. scrap processing, electrical components and plastic (see below for additional information).
All red-coloured components are made of ABS. These components can be recycled.
Caution! The canisters may contain chemical waste; bring this to your chemical depot.
>
Inside the red square pictured above (on the front of the dispenser) are electrical components that can be recycled.
