5. Operating Instructions
The BEILOCKERY DZ400 features a microcomputerized control panel for precise operation.
Figure 5.1: Detailed view of the microcomputerized control panel. This image highlights the various buttons and display, including the power switch, emergency stop, setting parameters, and program selection buttons.
Control Panel Functions:
- SWITCH (Power Button): Turns the machine on/off.
- STOP (Emergency Stop): Immediately halts any ongoing operation.
- SET UP: Enters parameter setting mode.
- PREVIOUS PAGE / NEXT PAGE: Navigates through setting options.
- INCREASE / DECREASE: Adjusts parameter values.
- P1-P6 (Program Buttons): Selects pre-set or custom programs.
Basic Operation Steps:
- Power On: Press the SWITCH button to turn on the machine.
- Prepare Item: Place the item to be vacuum-sealed into a suitable vacuum bag. Ensure the open end of the bag is clean and dry.
- Position Bag: Lay the open end of the vacuum bag flat over the sealing bar inside the vacuum chamber. Ensure the bag is smooth and extends beyond the sealing bar.
- Set Parameters (if needed):
- Press SET UP to enter parameter adjustment mode.
- Use PREVIOUS PAGE / NEXT PAGE to select parameters such as vacuum time, sealing time, and sealing temperature.
- Use INCREASE / DECREASE to adjust the values.
