•
Read the operating instructions in full before starting up
and follow the safety instructions.
•
In order to be able to use the appliance properly and safely, every
user must first read the operating instructions and observe the
safety instructions contained therein. Take care of these opera-
ting instructions and keep them in a place where they can be
accessed by everyone.
•
Only staff who have been trained accordingly, know the applian-
ce and are authorised to carry out work in this field should use
this appliance.
•
Never operate the equipment with the dispersing tools rotating
freely. Ensure that parts of the body, hair or items of clothing
cannot be trapped by the rotating parts. Before switching on the
dispersing instrument make sure that its shaft is immersed min.
10 mm in the medium to prevent the medium from splashing out.
•
Do not use the appliance without a dispersing element.
•
Vibrations can cause the turning handle on the dispersing tool to
loosen. Check that the turning handle is secure and tighten if
necessary.
•
It is not permitted to use the dispersing instrument with a free-
ly rotating dispersing element without a stirring vessel as any
contact can cause serious injury. It is important to ensure that
the dispersing element is always inside the stirring vessel when
the appliance is switched on.
•
The equipment is also suitable for manual operation.
•
Please follow the relevant safety instructions and guidelines, and
occupational health and safety regulations for use in the labora-
tory.
•
Please note that the dispersing element and the journal bearings
can become extremely hot during use.
• When working with the dispersing unit, the user must select and
wear his personal protective equipment according to the mixing
hazard category. Defective or inappropriate protective equip-
ment can expose the user to the risk of splashing or getting
caught in the dispersing tool.
•
Protect the dispersing element from any impact.
•
Even small, undetectable damage creates unbalance and blocks
the dispersing instrument. It also causes the dispersing element
to overheat and inevitably overloads the drive.
•
In the event of unbalance or unusual noises, switch off the appli-
ance immediately in order to prevent unwanted resonance both
in teh appliance and the whole assembly. Any unbalance can
damage the assembly, the appliance or destroy th e stirring ves-
sel, which, in turn, can seriously injure the user, as can the rota-
ting dispersing element.
•
Unusual noises indicate that the appliance and the dispersion
tool is no longer working properly.
•
Replace the dispersing element if you notice any unbalance or
unusual noises. Stop using the appliance if there is no difference
after you have changed the dispersing element and return it to the
dealer or the manufacturer along with a description of the fault..
•
Only dispersing elements approved by
IKA
may be used!
