1. Safety Warnings
CAUTION! Read carefully before use:
This ultrasonic cleaning device is designed exclusively for the acoustic
irradiation of objects and liquids.
Check the housing, the operating elements and the transducer tank for possible
shipping damage before connecting the unit to the power supply. In case of any
shipping damage
do not
connect the unit to the mains. Contact your supplier and
forwarder.
Put the unit on a dry and solid surface.
Check for correct voltage; the voltage required is indicated on the nameplate on
the back of the unit.
The unit must be connected to an
earthed socket
only. Keep the work surface
and the operating elements clean and dry to prevent accidents caused by
electricity.
Fill the ultrasonic cleaning bath with liquid up to approx. 2/3 of its volume
before
use.
Do not
operate the unit
without liquid
.
If the unit is operated over longer periods check the filling level regularly. Any
operation of the ultrasonic unit without liquid might cause damage to the
transducer system.
Please note that so-called "start-up splashes" can occur. When the filled unit is
started, some of the liquid can splash out.
The tank of a unit with heating, can heat up while operating
Do not touch the tank inside when the heating is on. Risk of burning!
Do not reach into the tank during the ultrasonic operation.
For your information: Cell membranes could get damaged by extended exposure
to ultrasound.
Pull the mains plug before emptying the unit (by pouring out the liquid).
Please do not immerse the device in water under any circumstances. This would
create a serious safety hazard for the user. Resulting injury to the person and/or
damage to the electronics of the device cannot be excluded.
Warning in respect of inflammable liquids:
Under no circumstances may inflammable liquids, e.g. solvents, be used
directly in the ultrasonic cleaning tank. There is a risk of fire and explosion!
For your information: The ultralsonics increase the evaporation of the liquids and
form a fine mist which could ignite at any time through contact to a source of
ignition.
Materials which present a risk of explosion and inflammable solvents
-in the risk groups according to VbF (fire regulations) AI, B, AII, AIII
or marked with symbols and danger warnings in accordance with the EC
regulations - E or R 1, R 2 or R 3 for combustible materials or
- F+, F or R 10, R 11 or R 12 for inflammable materials
may not be placed in the stainless steel tank of the ultrasonic device.
