Installation:

Water:

Connect water supply to magnet valve with 3/8 RG. Connect water outlet to discharge branch 3/4 RG. Both connection points are marked at the bottom of the machine.

The water outlet must NOT be closed as this may generate excess pressure in the water jacket and risk damaging the machine.

Electric Power

Check that the main switch ‑5‑ is off. Then mount supply cable according to enclosed colour code schematic diagram. The direction of the stirrer will be confirmed later.

Gear

The gear has been filled up with oil. Dismount the filler plug and mount the enclosed air‑escape valve. Maintenance of the gear, see later in the manual.

MOVING THE MACHINE

In case you need to move the machine once it has been set-up, or after a period of time, please read the following:

Make a note of the thermostat settings and set them to zero.

Disconnect from the electricity supply.

Disconnect the supply pipes and the waste pipes. There is a considerable amount (weight) of water in the machine. If you want to drain the water you can either remove the drain plug on the underside of the machine, or carefully remove the inlet valve complete (as the valve defaults to the closed position with no electricity supply).

Starting-Up:

As this machine operates as an automatic system, it is important to apply the following start‑up procedure accurately.

If the event of the Water Jacket ever being emptied, then this procedure would have to be repeated. (It does not have to be repeated otherwise.)

1.      Open the water supply to the machine.

2.      Switch on at main switch ‑5‑.

After several seconds the 2 thermostat displays will settle. The left‑hand one will show 00. The right‑hand one will display the temperature of the machine, which should exceed 15°C. If this is not the case, switch the machine off for a period (allowing it to come up to room temperature) and then switch on. The yellow light ‑lc­should not light up ‑ if it does, switch off immediately the main switch. If the yellow light not light up then continue. Check that the right‑hand thermostat is adjusted to 00. See the manual for cooling thermostat.

3.      Press black button 2c. The magnetic valve will open and the water runs into the water jacket. The stirrer will automatically start. (Check that the scraper blades face forward). Once the direction is ascertained, the stirrer must be stopped by pressing 4c. (If the direction is not correct, change the 2 phases in the connection cable when the water jacket has finished filling.) The water jacket will take 5‑10 minutes to fill. When there is water in the water outlet, filling is complete. Switch the machine off at the main switch 5 and then switch it back on again. This interrupts the water filling, effectively closing the water inlet.

4.      Included in the manual are instructions for the thermostats. Please be familiar with these prior to filling the machine with chocolate.

5.      The machine is now ready for use.

Operating Instructions:

Below please find directions for the use of the machine.

The temperatures given here may be varied according the colour and type of chocolate being used. However we recommend that these be used as a starting point until the machine has been through the tempering program several times and the operation procedures are familiar.

Melting:

1.      Ensure the stirrer has stopped. (Auto cut‑out on removal of lid.)

2.      Fill with chocolate until at least 2/3 full.

3.      Set heating thermostat la to 45°C.  

4.      When the chocolate is partly liquid, the stirrer may be started. ‑4a‑.

5.      The chocolate temperature may be read on thermometer 3, after the stirrer has been operating for several minutes.

After a certain time, the chocolate will give a temperature reading corresponding to the thermostat setting, i.e. approx. 45°C.

When chocolate tempering is required, the procedure is as follows:

Tempering:

6.      The stirrer must be on during the tempering process. It will start automatically. (If for any reason the lid is opened during the tempering process and/or the stirrer cut‑out operated, ensure that stirring is resumed when the lid is replaced.)

7.      Set Heating Thermostat la to 31°C.

8.       Set cooling thermostat 2a to 32°C.

          (Water cooling temperature will be 12°‑16°C.)

9.      Press black button 2c.

10.      The following will take place:

- The stirrer will start.

- The heating will stop.

- The magnetic valve opens for the cool water. ‑ The temperature of the chocolate will fall.

- The magnetic valve closes when chocolate reaches 32°C. ‑ The heating starts, yellow light lc comes on.

The chocolate temperature will drop further to approx. 28°­29°C. Then the temperature will raise and sets at 31°C at which point it is ready to use.

It may register a heat overshoot on 0,5°C. Please note this if any change is made to the thermostatic programme.  

Working The Tempered Chocolate:

The Chocolate, when tempered and ready to use, is drained out through the valve at the bottom of the machine. To prevent clogging, this valve is separately heated by an electrical wire.

If tempered chocolate remains in the machine, the stirrer can be left on continuously or intermittently. Tempered chocolate should not be allowed to stand still for too long. Timings will vary according to the type of chocolate and the manufactures' ideal temperatures.

When the chocolate requires melting again, simply raise the temperature on the left‑hand thermostat la to 45°C.  

DAILY USE:

The daily operation of the machine will be as follows:

Adjust heating thermostat la to 45°C. Fill with solid chocolate or buttons. To increase the speed of the Melting Process, the stirrer can be put on, however it is advisable to ensure that the chocolate has at least partly melted, to avoid jamming the stirrer blades. (see automatic cut‑out). At a minimum temperature of 40°C (once achieved as a steady read‑out from well‑stirred, melted chocolate) tempering can be started.

Adjust heating thermostat la to 31°C.

Press black button 2c and the chocolate will be ready to use after 45 minutes.

ADJUSTMENTS

Changes can be made to the thermostats, however it MUST be taken into consideration when adjusting the cooling temperatures that an overshoot allowance is specifically required for quality tempering and thus must be allowed for. Adjustments to heating temperatures for various types of chocolates need to be made progressively in increments of 0,5°C to get the optimum results from the raw material being tempered.

AUTOMATIC CUT-OUT:

If the stirrer motor is overloaded, it will automatically cut‑out and a red warning light, 3d, will come on. As long as this light is on, the motor cannot start. Also in the event of an electrical failure, the motor cut out.  

The stirrer is protected from abrupt overloading by a tapered shear‑pin in the motor shaft. This can easily be replaced and a spare shear‑pin is delivered with your new machine.

The water jacket must always remain filled up. To prevent accidental draining, there is only one drain plug at the bottom of the machine, the opening of which requires tools as this step is only necessary under rare circumstances.

If the event of the water having been drained off, the heating elements must not heat as this will damage the machine when there is no water in the water jacket.

THE EFFECT OF THE WATER TEMPERATURE ON THE TEMPERING:

Changes in Temperature and Pressure of the cooling water can be the cause of temperature variations that directly affect the temper of the chocolate.

The ideal temperature is 15°C, however a range between 12°C and 17°C is acceptable.

The flow rate is 9 litres per minute at ordinary pressure.

When the cooling temperature drops below 12°C, it can cause the over‑production of crystals in the chocolate. This will effectively 'over temper' the product and result in lumpy thick chocolate with a low tolerance in working temperature variation.  

When the cooling temperature is over 17°C, the cooling will take a proportionally longer time. It can also adversely affect the temper of the chocolate, reducing the 'snap' quality and shine of the finished chocolate.

In many cases, adjustment to the flow of cooling water will take care of any differences. If for any reason there are difficulties in achieving these results, or wider variations in water temperature than can be accommodated by small adjustments to the appropriate thermostats, then a Mixing Battery is available. This will ensure that the Water Temperature is constant.

PLEASE NOTE:

This machine has a built-in safety-switch in the lid.

It means that the stirrer stops when you remove the lid. When the lid is put back, start the stirrer on 4a.

While the heating thermostat can be used for adjustment of melting temperature and ready chocolate temperature, the following parameters can be coded in the thermostat, so the operation will be easier.

We recommend that adjustments are not done before you have worked with the machine for some time, so you have experience in which temperature is required.

Code the required melting temperature as parameter HS1 and ready chocolate temperature as LS1.

How to code the parameters:

-     Press "set" in more than 5 seconds.

-     The display will change to show parameters.

-     Press on “Up” until the display shows LS1.

-     Press on “Set” and keep it pressed whilst you press “Up” to the required value.

-     Do the same on HS1.  

After approximately 20 seconds without any influence, the thermostat will change automatically back to its normal functions.
