- To obtain the best results, oranges must meet the following criteria :
- No wrapping papers or stickers
- 60 mm < diameter < 85mm(a calibration device prevents insertion of any orange with a diameter
exceeding 85 mm.
- Oranges must be of good quality, sained, not bruised (a spoiled orange may disturb the correct
machine operation ).
With these criteria being complied with, oranges are placed in the hopper (22lbs max) and not
directly in the feeding chute.
As a matter of fact, the orange transfered from the hopper to the chute is performed
automatically.
During operation, shutter (1) located above upper feeding chute (2) must be lowered. Its
opening is justified only if the upper feeding chute is clogged by one or more oranges of poor
quality.
