4. DESCRIPTION OF PLASTERING MACHINE OPERATION
- The plastering machine is designed for use in building
sites, for mixing and pumping all mixed mortars declared as
compatible with this type of machine by the material manu-
facturers: gypsum based plasters, anhydrite based plasters,
lime/cement based plasters, reverse insulation plasters,
grouting mortar etc.
4.1 PLASTERING MACHINE DESCRIPTION (Fig. 1)
The plastering machine comprises a wheeled frame (ref.1), which
supports a hopper (ref.2), a mixing chamber (ref.3), a water circuit
(ref.4) complete with self-priming pump (ref.4a), an electrical panel
(ref.5), and a diaphragm compressor (ref.6).
The pre-mixed dry material is poured in to the hopper, in which
a cell-wheel-dispenser (ref.7), activated by a gearmotor (ref.8),
moves the material inside the mixing chamber. The mixing cham-
ber contains
a mixer (ref.9), activated by a gearmotor (ref.8a), which mixes the
material with water delivered to the chamber by the water pump.
The water flow rate is regulated by means of a micrometric valve
(ref.4b) and displayed via a flow meter (ref.4c). The mixer drives
a helical rotor pump (ref.10) which conveys the material via a
rubber hose (ref.12) to the spray jet (ref.12a). Ther air pumped
by the compressor is also delivered to the jet to enable spray

application onto the walls.
5. OPERATION SAFETY
- Before using the plastering machine, ensure that it is
fitted with all safety devices.
- Never insert parts of the body and/or tools in the hopper
or mixing chamber during operation.
All current standards governing accident prevention and safety
devices must be observed in the workplace.
Take care when handling sacks of material to avoid dispersion of
dust with inhalation of the latter; if this is not possible masks must
be worn to protect the mouth and nose.
- Never use the machine in areas subject to the risk of
explosion/fires or in underground installations.
The plastering machine is not equipped with a lighting system
and therefore the workplace must be fitted with adequate lighting.
The power lines must be laid to prevent any possible damage.
Never place the plastering machine on electric power cables.
Ensure that the electrical connection is protected against the risk
of water penetration in connectors. Use exclusively connectors
and couplings equipped with water spray protection.
- Never use inadequate or provisional electric lines; if in doubt
consult specialist personnel for assistance.
- Repairs to the electrical circuit must be performed exclusively by
specialised personnel. Disconnect the machine from the power
supply before performing maintenance or repairs.
-Avoid contact of electric wires with movable and/or moving parts
of the machine to avoid injury from contact with live metal parts.
6. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The G.I.5 plastering machine is constructed according to standard
EN 60204-1, with protection against water sprays and protection
against overload and power failure.
The plastering machine must be connected to the earthing circuit.
