Re­cent­ly the peak lu­mi­nos­i­ty achieved on the DAΦNE col­lid­er has been im­proved by al­most a fac­tor 3 by im­ple­ment­ing a novel col­li­sion scheme based on large Pi­win­s­ki angle and Crab-Waist. This en­cour­ag­ing re­sult opened new per­spec­tives for physics re­search and a new run with the KLOE-2 de­tec­tor has been sched­uled to start by spring 2010. The KLOE-2 in­stal­la­tion is a com­plex op­er­a­tion re­quir­ing a care­ful de­sign ef­fort and a sev­er­al months long shut­down. The high lu­mi­nos­i­ty in­ter­ac­tion re­gion has been deeply re­vised in order to take into ac­count the ef­fect on the beam caused by the solenoidal field of the ex­per­i­men­tal de­tec­tor and to en­sure back­ground re­jec­tion. The shut­down has been also used to im­ple­ment sev­er­al other mod­i­fi­ca­tions aimed at im­prov­ing beam dy­nam­ics: the wig­gler poles have been dis­placed from the mag­net axis in order to can­cel high order terms in the field, the feed­back sys­tems have been equipped with stronger power sup­plies and more ef­fi­cient kick­ers and elec­trodes have been in­sert­ed in­side the wig­gler and the dipole vac­u­um cham­bers, in the positron ring, to avoid the e-cloud for­ma­tion. A low level RF feed­back has been added to the cav­i­ty con­trol in both rings.
