Securing the stirring shaft protector
Diagram
(see Fig. 6)
Use a stirring shaft protector (
Q
), e.g.
R 301
, to provide
protection against injury when working with the equipment.
Use the bolts (
U
) to attach the plastic half-shell pieces to the
stirrer (
T
), as shown in
Fig. 6
. The screw (
S
) can be used to
adjust the length of the stirring shaft protector.
Check that the stirring shaft protector is held in position se-
curely prior to each use and also at regular intervals. The
position of the stirring shaft protector must only be adjusted
when the equipment is stationary and the power supply is
disconnected.
Securing the mixing vessel to the stand
Diagram
(see Fig. 7)
First fix the strap clamp (
X
) to the stand (
I
). Adjust the strap
clamp (
X
) position according to the position of stirer and mi-
xing vessel (
V
) before tighten the clamp bolt (
Y
).
Clamp the mixing vessel (
V
) with the flexible clamping band
(
W
).
Check whether the voltage given on the type plate corre-
sponds to the available mains voltage.
The socket used must be earthed (fit-
ted with earth contact).
If these conditions have been met, the machine is ready to
operate when the mains plug is plugged in.
If these conditions are not met, safe operation is not guar-
anteed and the machine could be damaged.
During commissioning of the machine the output shaft
starts to run at the last speed set. Ensure that the speed set
is suitable for the test medium selected.
Switching on the device
If in doubt, set the speed knob to the lowest speed. In case
of doubt use the rotary knob (
B
, see
Fig. 1
) to set the lowest
speed and set the drive at the lowest speed position (back
side, refer to the attachment on side of overhead stirrer).
The unit starts to run when the rocker switch (A, see
Fig. 1
) is
switched to
I
position.
If the unit has not been used for some time, a knocking noise
will be heard when switching on, which is due to the preload
on the friction lining of the friction wheel drive. This has no
detrimental effect on the function of the unit, and the knock-
ing noise will disappear after a short running-in period.
Maintenance and cleaning
The equipment is maintenance-free. It is only subject to the
natural wear and tear of components and their statistical
failure rate.
Cleaning:
For cleaning disconnect the main
plug!
Use only cleaning agents which have been approved by
IKA
®
to clean the instrument.
Dirt
Cleaning agent
Dye
isopropyl alcohol
Construction material
water containing tenside/
isopropyl alcohol
Cosmetics
water containing tenside/
isopropyl alcohol
Foodstuff
water containing tenside
Fuel
water containing tenside
For materials which are not listed, please request informa-
tion from
IKA
®
.
Wear protective gloves during cleaning the instrument.
Electrical devices may not be placed in the cleansing agent for
the purpose of cleaning.
Do not allow moisture to get into the equipment when
cleaning.
Before using another than the recommended method for
cleaning or decontamination, the user must ascertain with
IKA
®
that this method does not destroy the instrument.
When cleaning the unit, take particular care not to bring
substances containing oil or grease into contact with the
running surfaces of the cone pulley and the friction wheel.
This would substantially reduce the frictional coefficient re-
sulting from the pairing of the friction wheel and cone pulley
materials, and would impair power transmission in the unit.
Spare parts order:
When ordering spare parts, please give:
- machine type
- serial number, see type plate
- item and designation of the spare part see
e parts diagram and spare parts list.
Repair:
Please send equipment for repair only after it has been
cleaned and is free from any materials which may con-
stitute a health hazard.
For repair, please request the “
Decontamination Certifi-
cate
” form
IKA
®
or use the download printout of it from
IKA
®
If you require servicing, return the equipment in its original
packaging. Storage packaging is not sufficient. Please also
use suitable transport packaging.
