• SAFETY INDICATOR LIGHTS

For models R 23•R30•R45•R60:

• The orange light comes on when the appliance is
plugged in. If none of the lights come on, this either

means that the appliance is not plugged in properly
or that one of the safety device is not activated.

• 2 green lights indicate that the appliance is ready
for use (see starting procedure on page 6).

• The red light is a motor temperature indicator.
When it comes on, it means that the motor has
reached a temperature of 120 °C and may shortly
cut out to avoid overheating. This allows you to halt
your processing task before it avoid possible motor
damage. It is best to wait until the red light has gone
out before resuming your task.

• In case of motor thermal cut-out, the red and
orange lights will stay on until the motor has cooled
down. The machine will not start while the orange
light is on.

• In case of overload trip, the motor stops and only
the orange light is on. After the automatic resetting
of the overload device, the orange light switch off,
both green lights switch on and the machine can be
restarted.

ASSEMBLY

1) Notice the lip on the
bowl. On one side, directly
over one of the handles,
the lip extends straight out
rather than being curled.
This feature is for pouring
and should be to your left
as you place the bowl onto
the machine.

Facing the tilting lever end of the machine, lower the
bowl over the motor shaft until it rests on the top sur­face of the motor unit. Turn the bowl handles in a
clockwise direction about 45° as shown until you feel
it drop down a bit. Once you feel the bowl bottom­out, turn it back in a counterclockwise direction until it
comes to a complete stop and feels tight and stable.
When viewed from the tilting lever end, the handles
should be directly to your left and right. The bottom
of the bowl should be parallel with the top surface of
the motor unit.

2) Before you continue,
make sure the bowl is in
the upright position. Check
the locking lever. It should
be rotated to the right (as
you are facing the locking
lever end of the machine)
and pressed down, locking
the bowl in the upright
position.

DANGER : RISK OF INJURY

The blades are extremely sharp.
For this reason, always make sure you have

removed the blade assembly before doing any job
inside the bowl, such as cleaning or emptying.

ENGLISH

3) Place the blade assembly
on the motor shaft.
Then lower it to the bottom
of the bowl by rotating it.

Always check that the
blade assembly is correctly

positioned at the bottom
of the bowl before placing

the ingredients you wish to
process in the bowl.

4) Position the lid in the
space provided in the lid
support arm, then rotate it
90° to lock it into position.

5) To close the lid, fit the
locking catch over the
edge of the bowl and push
the handle down. The
appliance is now ready for
use. The green lights
should be on.

If the safety indicator lights do not become green,
check all the assembly procedures according to
page 47.

HELPFUL TIPS

• EMPTYING THE BOWL

1) Open the lid by freeing
the locking handle. Release
the tilting lever by raising it.

2) Depending on the pro­duct, it may be possible to
remove the blade assem­bly before tilting the bowl.
If it is not practical to
remove it, hold the blade
assembly down with one
hand while tilting the bowl
with the other.

CAUTION: It is advisable to wear cut-resistant glo­ves when handling the blades.

•

BLADE ASSEMBLIES

In order to ensure optimum cutting quality, Robot­Coupe has developed new, patented blade

profiles.

These blades, which are perfectly balanced in order
to avoid any vibration, are supplied with three
different types of edge.

Standard blade :

Smooth edge for emulsions,

mousses and finely-chopped
meat and vegetables.

Optional blades :

Fine serrated edge for all

blending tasks and smooth or
fine-textured preparations.

Smooth, “crescent-sha-
ped” 3-blade assembly,
supplied as a standard

attachment.
Distinctive feature: the

“crescent” blades make
it easier to mix and

bind ingredients.

A 2-blade assembly is used for processing small
quantities or liquid preparations. The 3-blade
assembly is used for maximum capacities with dry
ingredients.

To obtain the best results, it is important to set the
right spacing between the blades. Do not excess
maximum processing capacities (see following
table).

The R-VAC

®

kit was specifically
designed so that liquids can be added
to the mixture during processing, while
keeping the food under vacuum.

ACCESSORY

• LID WIPER

Your cutter is fitted with a
lid wiper to clean the insi­de surface of the lid
during processing, there­by enabling you to moni-

tor the preparation.

OPTIONS

• COARSE SERRATED
BLADES

The blade shaft can be
fitted with serrated
blades, which are used
mainly for :

- kneading (shortcrust
pastry, flan pastry,
almond paste, praline,
etc.).

- grinding (frozen foods,
shellfish, almonds, etc.).

• WHEELS

Your cutter can be sup­plied with 3 retractable
wheels (exclusive to
ROBOT-COUPE) which
can be lowered or raised
simply by lifting each
leg. This makes it easy
to move the machine
around and thereby faci­litates the cleaning of the
working surfaces.

EXAMPLES OF USE

The cutter will enable you to perform all your
cutting tasks in minimum time. We recommend
therefore, that you keep a close eye on the mixture
in order to obtain the desired results.

CLEANING

WARNING

As a precaution, always unplug your appliance
before cleaning it (hazard of electrocution) and
handle the blades with care (hazard of injury).

All parts that come into contact with food are easy
to remove and clean. Failure to keep the machine
clean can result in tainted food, high repair costs,
and shortened machine life. Follow the cleaning
instructions detailed below, or clean according to
local Health Department Regulations.

Pre-rinse the attachments before washing to remove
any bulk food on the parts. A stiff bristle brush or
power sprayer faucet attachment is effective in
knocking the food out of the crevices of the attachments
as a pre-rinse procedure. Follow the instructions
below for individual parts.

CLEANING THE BLADE ASSEMBLY

For the purpose of sanitation, the blades must be
disassembled (see the maintenance section for
instructions) and cleaned at the end of each prep
session or three times a day. The blade assembly
should be completely disassembled before washing.
The blade assembly can be washed in a dish
machine or three-tank system pot sink. The washer
should have an industry-standard wash, rinse, and
sanitization cycle. Allow the parts to air-dry after
sanitizing. Apply a little food-grade oil or grease to
the threads on the top locking nut before reassembly.

CLEANING THE BOWL

Wash the bowl in a dish machine or three-tank
system pot sink. The washer should have an industry­standard wash, rinse, and sanitization cycle. Allow
the bowl to air-dry after sanitizing and before
reassembly.

12

CLEANING THE LID

Wash the lid by hand in a three-tank system pot sink.
The high temperatures of dish machines can shorten
the life of plastics. Wash the lid with a detergent
suitable for cleaning plastic parts. Allow the lid to
air-dry after sanitizing and before reassembly.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR FRAME AND HOUSING

Always unplug the machine before cleaning. Do not
pressure-wash the machine. Use a cloth dampened
with a soapy-water solution to wipe down the exterior.

CLEANING THE SEALS

The seals under the bowl protect the motor and
seal the bottom of the bowl. Clean the seals with a
soapy-water solution. If necessary, use a small
brush to help loosen food particles. After cleaning,
lubricate the seals with a food-grade grease or oil.

IMPORTANT

Like the bowl and lid, the blade assembly
should also be removed for cleaning after use.

Always dry all the metal parts carefully, espe­cially the blades, to avoid oxidization.

When you are not using your appliance, keep the
lid open and do not leave the bowl in the locked
position (this will prevent the seals from becoming
worn).

IMPORTANT

Check that your detergent is suitable for clea­ning the plastic parts.
Certain washing agents are too alkaline (e.g.
high levels of caustic soda or ammonia) and
totally incompatible with certain types of
plastic, causing them to deteriorate rapidly.

MAINTENANCE

•BLADES

Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade
assembly.
The blades do not need to be razor sharp to
provide a quality cut. However, they will need
sharpening from time to time. Use the honing stone
shipped with the machine, or have the blades
sharpened professionally if you prefer. If they
become too worn to sharpen, replacement blades
are available.

• SHAFT SEALS

The watertighness is achieved by a sealing socket
that holds two shaft seals, a stainless steel deflector
with integrated V-ring (upperside) and an O-ring
(lowerside).

To ensure that the motor remains totally watertight,
it is advisable to check the seals for wear once a
month, and replace them if necessary.

When the seals are worn, liquid may first run into
the bearings, then reach the motor. If this happens,
the seals, the bearings and even the motor may
have to be replaced.
The seals are easy to replace without having to
remove the motor, so you are strongly advised to
keep an eye on their state of wear.

left hand side.

• BOWL SEAL

The bowl seal, located between the bowl and the
bushing, ensures that the bowl remains watertight.
This sealing part must be regulary lubricated with
edible oil and be changed. Check it monthly for
signs of wear, as the watertightness of the bowl
depends on it.

In order to make it easier for you to clean your
appliance, the bowl sealing assembly is located on
the underside of the bowl.

As a result, a small area here may fill up with
foodstuff, though it will empty itself when the bowl is
released.

• DISMANTLING THE BLADE ASSEMBLY

WEAR CUT-RESISTANT GLOVES WHEN HANDLING
THE BLADES

- To reassemble the blades, follow these instructions
in the reverse order. Also, refer to the illustrations
on page 9.

- Make sure you tighten the top locking nut

properly after reassembling the blades, in order
to prevent the latter coming loose.

• LID SEAL

The lid is designed to be completely watertight
within the limits set out on page 11 (see examples
of use). In order to ensure that it remains that way,
you may have to change the seal occasionally,
depending on how regularly you use your machine.

If you do not use your machine regularly, we
recommend that you leave the lid open when it is
not in use jobs to preserve all these features.

Take out the worn seal.

* Recommendation only, local electrical codes must be followed if

applicable.

NOTE

*

When the appliance is switched on, the current is
several times greater than the rated current.

“The starting current of appliances must be taken into
account when determining the conductor gauge and
choosing the overcurrent protective devices to prevent
excessive voltage drops during the starting phase
and unexpected protective device tripping.”

A protective device dedicated to AC induction
motor must be used. See recommended size in the
table above. In every case, you must comply with
the legislation currently in force.

SAFETY

These appliances are fitted with four interlocking
devices.

The machine can be started only if the following
conditions are achieved:

- The bowl is locked in the right angular position,

- The bowl and the motor are in vertical position,

- The lid is locked on its support in the correct
angular position,

- The lid is closed on the bowl.

Caution: Allow product circulation to stop before
opening the lid.

These models are also fitted with a thermal protection
system (with automatic reset) which stops the motor

if it is overloaded. A red warning light signals that
the machine is becoming too hot and is about to
stop.

If this happens, wait until the appliance has cooled
down before switching it back on (the orange light
will switch off and the green lights will switch on
again).
