Carefully read the entire manual before operating the machine.
It is vital to know the information and limitations contained in this manual for correct machine use by the operator.
Interventions are only permitted if the operator is accordingly competent and trained.
The operator must be knowledgeable about machine operations and mechanisms.
The purchaser must ensure that operators are trained and aware of all the information and clarifications in the supplied
documentation.
Even with such certainty the operator or user must be informed and therefore aware of potential risks when operating
the machine.
Safety, reliability and optimum performance is guaranteed when using original parts.
Any tampering or modifying of the appliance (electrical, mechanical or other) which has not been previously authorised
in writing by the manufacturer is considered abusive and disclaims the constructor from any responsibility for any
resulting damage.
All necessary operations to maintain the efficiency of the machine before and throughout use are the responsibility of
the user.
1.02
WARNING AND DANGER INDICATIONS - SIGNS
The machine has been designed and constructed according to the current norms and consequently with mechanical
and electrical safety devices designed to protect the operator or user from possible physical damage. Residual risks
during use or in some intervention procedures on the device are however present. Such risks can be reduced by
carefully following manual procedures, using the suggested individual protection devices and respecting the legal and
safety norms in force.
This manual includes “Warning” and “Danger” indications in relevant chapters. These indications are shown with the
words “Danger” or “Warning” in bold font and uppercase to make them highly visible.
WARNING
DANGER
“DANGEROUS ZONE” indicates any zone inside or in the proximity of the appliance in which a person is exposed to the
risk of injury or damage to health.
1.03
AIM OF THE INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL
This manual has been edited with the aim of providing all machine operators with all the necessary information on
installation, use and maintenance from production to scrapping in as comprehensive and clear manner as possible.
All the procedures useful for any foreseeable emergency situations have been listed by the manufacturer and can be
verified during use.
Operators, for whom this manual has been written, due to their competence must give instructions or operate the
machine themselves.
The instructions manual must be carefully consulted by laboratory or site safety managers, equipment operators and
any internal and external maintenance workers.
The manual is integral to the product and refers to this appliance only.
The manual must be safeguarded and always kept near the equipment so that it can be easily consulted whenever
necessary.
IMPORTANT: The manual does not substitute the experience and technical training of the worker but must be
considered a guide for carrying out its functions.
Furthermore all the norms and rules the operator should be aware of or consult for correct use of the machine and/or
test performance can be found in the manual.
This responsibility is entrusted to the installer and Laboratory or Site Manager where the machine is installed.
The Constructor is available to provide further information.

1.06 USAGE
These sieving units have been developed for sieving tests on fine and wet materials.
This appliance is for the exclusive use which it has been conceived for.
Any other use is considered improper and therefore negligent.
Machine use is allowed only in places free from danger of explosion or fire.
During operation check for conditions of danger.
immediately stop the machine should it be working irregularly, and consult the authorised dealer’s Sales Service
department.
It is the Client’s responsibility to verify at the time of installation and use that no conditions of use arise which are
different to those indicated.

GENERAL MACHINE DESCRIPTION
The equipment is basically formed by a plate holder for specimens (B5). This is supported by springs (B12)
and is activated by electromagnetic impulses (B13). The sieves are subjected to a double vibrating action:
vertical and rotational.

incidental pull during the normal working procedures.
It allows reaching the inside components of the sieve shaker
base. The guard is fixed to the base by some screws.
They transfer the vibrations from the electromagnet (B13) to the
specimen receiver (B5).
It generates the vibrations, which are necessary for a sieving

vibrating intensity according to the user’s needs. (See Chapter
“USE” of this manual for further details).
