Noise And Vibration; Maintenance And Care - Felisatti MF1200/VE2 Instrucciones De Servicio

Installing the Quick Fix mixer rod (Fig.3):
Screw the G adapter (5/8" thread) unto the machine
shaft; for this purpose use a fixed spanner situated on
the drill chuck spindle spanner C and another one on the
adapter and tighten.
Pull back the retaining ring and place the clean whisk in
the tool organizer, matching up both "0" for the rod as
well as the retaining ring, until they are correctly in place.
Release the retaining ring.
Pull on the mixing rod to assure yourself that it is
blocked.
In order to withdraw or change the mixing rod, push the
retaining ring of the tool holder backwards and remove
the mixing rod.
Only clean inserting rods should be used.
The rods should be introduced into the Quick Fix G
Adapter until they become self-blocking.
Mains connection
Warning! Connect only to a single-phase AC current
supply and only to the mains voltage specified on the
rating plate. Connection to sockets without earth protec-
tion is possible as the appliance features protective
class II insulation according to European Standard EN
60745. Radio interference suppression complies with the
European Standard EN 55014.
FUNCTIONS
Mechanical speed shift
Low speed: Lever D should be at sign I on the head
High speed: Lever D should be at sign II on the head.
The mechanical speed change is situated on the side of
the head and is operated by turning the lever. The lever
should not be forced when changing speeds. If there is
any difficulty, gently rotate the drill spindle until the teeth
engage. Mechanical speed change should only be
carried out with the machine stopped.
Speed adjustments. Constant electronic performance
The regulation electronics provides continuous adjust-
ment of the revolutions and frequency in order to adapt
the machine to the type of material being mixed. Ad-
justment is made using the speed adjustment switch F,
which has 6 positions to regulate the speed.
The higher the number, the greater the speed. The
range of settings from "1" (low power) to "6" (full power)
makes the tool very flexible and adaptable to different
applications.
The constant speed control maintains the pre-set num-
ber of revolutions and impact frequency.
OPERATION
Three types of mixing actions:
• Up-down action: The rod creates an upward flow
from the bottom and centre of the mixture, which
then descends at the sides. This action is suitable
for mixing semi-solid materials, such as mortar,
plaster and cement.
• Down-up action: The rod creates a descending flow
from the top and centre of the mixture, which then as-
cends at the sides. This action is suitable for the mix-
ing of liquid materials, such as paint and varnish.
• Horizontal action: The rod creates a horizontal flow,
and this means that it must be moved up and down in
order to thoroughly mix all the material. This action
minimises the incorporation of air into the mixture and
hence, the formation of bubbles.

NOISE AND VIBRATION

This tool has been designed and made to reduce noise
to a minimum. However, in spite of this, in certain
circumstances the maximum noise level in the place
of work could exceed 85 dBA. In this case, the oper-
ator should wear ear protection.
The machine's noise and vibration levels, measured in
compliance with EN 60745-1, usually reach:
Acoustic pressure = 92 dB(A)
Sound-power level = 105 dB(A)
Use ear protection!
Vibration acceleration = 12.7 m/s

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

WARNING-Always unplug the machine before carrying
out work on it.
- The machine should be taken to a technical service
centre if the power falls.
- Tool inspection: Using a worn tool will reduce the
efficiency of the work being performed and could
lead to motor damage and the tools should be
changed when any abrasion is noted. Daily: Clean
the tool holder.
- Inspect the mounting screws: Regularly inspect all
the mounting screws and ensure they are firmly tight-
ened. Should any screw be loose, tighten it immediate-
ly. Failure to do so could put you at serious risk.
- Motor maintenance: Take the utmost care to ensure
that the motor winding is not damaged and does not
become damp with oil or water.
- Brush replacement: The brushes disconnect auto-
matically and should be replaced after 150-200 hours
use or when they are less than 10 mm long. Have
them replaced by an Official Service Centre.
- Clean the machine thoroughly after each use with a
blast of dry air.
- The vents of the machine should be kept clear at
all times.
- Check that the mains lead is in good condition. If
it is not, take it to an Official Service Centre to
have it replaced.
- Use only Felisatti accessories and spares. The parts
the changing of which is not covered in this instruc-
tion manual, should be replaced in a Felisatti Official
Service Centre.
Do not dispose of electric tools in
the household waste!
In accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC
relating to old electrical and electronic appliances and
its translation into national law, used electric tools must
be collected separately and recycled in an ecologically
desirable way.
