For the Installer: These Instructions contain important information designed to help the user obtain the maximum benefit from the investment in an IMC SP Peeler. Please read them carefully before starting work, and consult with the supplier in the event of any queries.
If required, secure with the hose clip supplied. Longer lengths of flexible hose are available from IMC on request. The waste outlet also incorporates a 2” BSP female thread for connection to standard 54mm (2”) waste pipe.

A dedicated supply to the socket is recommended and it should be protected by a C or D class circuit breaker rated at 10A for the SP12 and 16A for the SP25. Three phase machines should be connected to a 15A isolator providing at least 3mm separation in all poles.
The direction of rotation of single phase units is set at the factory. If it is not rotating in the correct direction contact IMC. To change the direction of rotation of three phase units, switch off the machine, isolate the supply and interchange any two phase wires.
SP-Range SAFETY All SP-Range peelers are controlled so that if the electricity supply is interrupted the machine will not restart automatically. All single phase SP-Range controls are fitted with a thermal trip. This ensures that the controls cannot overheat and become damaged. If the thermal trip cuts in, the machine will not run until it has cooled down and the peeler is switched off and on again.
SP-Range DO’S AND DON’TS Install on a level service. Ensure power supply isolator or socket is accessible with the peeler installed. Clean the machine after each period of use. Don’t PAT test single phase machines, as they have an inverter inside the control box, which invalidates any earth leakage tests.
MAINTENANCE Other than regular cleaning the SP-Range of peelers require no maintenance by the end user. It is recommended that the unit is serviced by an IMC approved engineer at least once a year. The motor in the single phase units is controlled via an inverter. The following warnings must be observer before working on this unit.
