6.2. DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS (ECOPLAT PLUS BASE)

it is used in case of imminent risk to stop, with a voluntary action, the machine parts which may pose a risk.
For further details, see the paragraph “description of safety devices”.
B) “Cycle start” button:
it is used to start the wrapping automatic cycle.
The button indicator light on indicates that the electrical power supply is activated.

When the selector is set to position “D3”, the film carriage stops to allow reinforcing wrapping to be performed.
As long as the selector remains in position “D3”, wrapping is performed in the same point.
Set the selector to one of the “D0-D1-D2” positions to restart the film carriage.
