WARNING
The use of inappropriate or damaged hoses and/or inappropri-
ate fixing may lead to leakage of gases. Depending on the gas
in question, there may be a danger of gas explosion and/or dan-
ger of suffocation as well as a hazard for the health of the oper-
ator.
Always close the gas supply before a hose is removed and
when the equipment is not in use.
7.3.4 Exit Gas
On site, it must be ensured that:
the exit gas is dissipated securely by means of a suitable,
gas-tight hose.
the working environment and/or the laboratory/laboratory-like
facility is equipped with a sufficient ventilation system, de-
pending on the application.

The motor is controlled directly via the basic unit and is connected
to it via the motor cable.
For routine operation, it is not necessary to plug in and unplug the
motor cable. The connected motor is only coupled before cultiva-
tion. For details, see the main chapter “Before Cultivation” and the
“Connecting the Motor” chapter.
ATTENTION
If the motor cable is connected to or disconnected from the mo-
tor while the equipment is switched on, there is a risk of a short
circuit that could damage the control electronics.
To connect the motor cable, proceed as follows:
Procedure
1.
Insert the (angled) plug of the motor cable into the socket on
