Using The Machine - Castellari FENIX V2 Manual De Uso Y Mantenimiento

3. USE
3.1. Handling and transport
The machine can easily be transported both packaged or unpackaged. When it is
transported, pay attention to the electrical lines.
3.2. Before use
Before starting the machine the operator must have read and understood all sections of
this manual, especially Chapter 2 concerning safety.
Before using the machine for the first time:
-
familiarise yourself with the controls and their functions,
-
check that machine components subject to wear or deterioration are in good
condition,
-
check that all safety systems are working properly and covers fitted properly.
3.3. Connection
The machine must only be connected to a 12 V battery via the crocodile clips at the end
of the supplied power lead.
Connect the crocodile clips as follows:
-
connect the RED CLIP to the battery positive
-
connect the BLACK CLIP to the battery negative
NOTE: Do not connect the crocodile clips to generators, car batteries, agricultural
equipment or chargers as they could generate current surges that are potentially
dangerous to the machine. Do not bring the machine into contact with water.

3.4. Using the machine

The machine is started via the switch on the grip. Once it has been started bring the
rake up to the branch to be shaken. Be careful of branches heavily loaded with fruit.
-
Grip the machine securely with both hands and make sure you have a good, stable
stance. NOTE: Never touch the moving parts of the machine.
-
To switch the machine off just bring the switch back to the off position.
-
If you do not intend to use the machine for a while, lay it flat on the ground to
prevent it accidentally falling.
Tips on using the rake:
-
Wear on the mechanical and electronic parts of the machine is closely correlated
with the way in which the machine is used. Insistently shaking a particular branch
may cause the machine to stop as a result of mechanical overload and overheating
of components. Try to limit halts to a minimum so as to will extend the working life
of your equipment!
-
To prevent dangerous overloads that can damage the rake it is advisable to
intersperse the shaking action with regular pauses so as not to stress the machine
beyond the standards for which it has been designed and tested.
-
Do not use flat or damaged batteries.
