/// Working with the device
Danger!
› Do not use the device in explosive atmospheres, it is not EX-protected�
› With substances capable of forming an explosive mixture, appropriate safety measures must
be applied, e�g� working under a fume hood�
› To avoid body injury and property damage, observe the relevant safety and accident preven-
tion measures when processing hazardous materials�
› The device is not suitable for hand-held operation�
› Do not touch rotating parts during operation!
Warning!
› Pathogenic materials must only be processed in closed vessels under a suitable fume hood�
If you have any questions, please contact IKA application support�
› The operation of a free rotating shaft end is prohibited� Therefore, for safety reason, only
insert through the stirring tool over the upper edge of housing at standstill�
Caution!
› Make certain that the unit is set at the lowest speed before commissioning; otherwise, the
unit will begin running at the speed set in last operation� Gradually increase the speed�
Please observe the max� permitted speed for the stirring element� Never set higher speed�
!
Notice!
› Covers or parts that can be removed from the device without tools must later be refitted to
ensure safe operation� This will prevent the infiltration of foreign objects, liquids and other
contaminants�
› 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 ap-
paratus 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�
/// Power supply / switching off the device
!
Notice!
› If the device is operated too long in overload or if the ambient temperature 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 instructions
› The device, accessories and packaging must be disposed of in accordance with local and
national regulations�
Intended use
///
Use
› For mixing / stirring liquids from low to medium viscosities with various stirring tools�
›
Stand device
(chuck points down)
/// Range of use
Indoor environments similar to that a laboratory of research, teaching, trade or industry�
The safety of the user cannot be guaranteed:
› if the device is operated with accessories that are not supplied or recommended by the
manufacturer�
› if the device is operated improperly or contrary to the manufacture’s specifications�
› if the device or the printed circuit board are modified by third parties�
