Safety 

instructions

› Imbalance of the output shaft, the chuck and in particular the stirring

tools can lead to uncontrolled resonant vibrational behavior of the device
and the whole assembly. Glass apparatus and stirrer containers can be
damaged or shattered by this. It can cause injury to the operator, also can
damage the rotating stirring tool. In this case exchange the stirring tool
for one without imbalance or remedy the cause of the imbalance. If there
is still imbalance, return it to the dealer or the manufacturer along with a
description of the fault.

› There may be electrostatic activity between the medium and the output

shaft which could cause a direct danger.

› Never operate the device with the stirrer tools rotating freely. Ensure that

parts of the body, hair, jewelry or items of clothing cannot be trapped by
the rotating parts.

› Pay attention when setting the speed to any imbalance of the stirrer tools

and possible spraying of the medium to be stirred.

› Ensure that the stand does not start to move.
› Only process media that will not react dangerously to the extra energy

produced through processing. This also applies to any extra energy
produced in other ways, e.g. through light irradiation.

Reduce the speed if:

› the medium splashes out of the vessel because the speed is too high,
› the device is not running smoothly,
› the device begins to move around because of dynamic forces,
› an error occurs.

/// Accessories

› Protect the device and accessories from bumping and impacting.
› Check the device and accessories beforehand for damage each time

when you use them. Do not use damaged components.

› Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories described

in the ”Accessories” section.

› Must disconnect the power before changing stirring element and

fitting allowed accessories.

/// Switch on / off the device

If the device is operated too long in overload or if the ambient  
teperature is too high, the device switches off permanently.

› Disconnecting the device from the power outlet only works by removing

the main cord from the socket.

› The device must only be operated with the original power supply unit.
› The power supply comes with interchangeable plug adapters for different

countries so make sure the appropriate adapter is used.

› The outlet for the power supply must be easily accessible.
› After an interruption in the power supply during a stirring process,

the device does not restart automatically.

› The device must only be opened by trained technicians, even during repair.

The device must be unplugged from the power supply before opening. Live
parts inside the device may still be live for some time after
unplugging from the power supply.

/// Disposal

The device must be disposed of in accordance with national regulations.
