ATTENTION!
Do not pour the powder from Overow Bin into the Fine Dusting Powder Chamber

! When the
machine is in operation, this chamber must always have access to air for the entire system to
function properly. It is allowed to clean the prints above it.

will work when a vacuum is
detected in the system. When the vacuum cleaner is
switched off by the user, the Sifting module

the Powder Feeding Screw

. If there is
still powder in the chamber, it will not be
sent to the Sifting module

due to the
inactive Powder Feeding Screw.
