1. INTRODUCTION
NOTE:
The present manual is updated for the product it is sold with in order to grant an adequate
reference in operating and maintaining the equipment.
The manual may not reflect changes to the product not impacting service operations.
This electro-mechanical sieve shaker features efficient sieving action, heavy duty and
simple design.
Main features of the equipment are:
xDouble-effect electro-mechanical sieve;
xSuitable for up to 12 sieves 200/203 mm dia. or 12 sieves 250 mm dia or 10 sieves
300/315 mm dia;
xErgonomic and fast clamping system;
xTimer function included.
The series of sieves is held at the top by a rubber spherical seat and rotates eccentrically
at the bottom ensuring uniform shaking of the sample across the whole surface of the
sieves.
Upon each revolution, a simple mechanical mechanism imparts hits at the base of the
sieves so as to re-set the sample material on the sieves and guarantee a very efficient
overall sieving action.

1.4 Intended use and improper use
The machine can only be used for sieve analysis of aggregates using sieves of the
specified diameter and with maximum quantity of aggregates indicated, in order to obtain
the particle size distribution.
The equipment is designed to be used by a single operator, who is in charge of loading-
unloading the sieves and the material to sieve.
During normal operation the working area of the equipment is the front side where the
operator’s controls and the display are located.
The operator is responsible for switching on the machine, carrying out the operations for
which the machine was designed and manufactured, switching off the machine at the end
of the test or in the case of an emergency.
The operator must be trained on the correct use of the machine and the relative safety
aspects of its use.
The machine should be used following the procedures described in this manual.
Never use the machine for reasons other than those for which it was designed and
manufactured. Any other use of the machine is to be considered improper, not foreseen
and hence dangerous.
CONTROLS will not be responsible for improper use of the machine.
