5. Dispersing tools
Insertion of the dispersing tool into the disperser
Unscrew the knob (B) until its head is no more visible through the hole. Slide the dispersing tool from the bottom into the
disperser, up to the stop. The dispersing tool enters with an audible click if you insert it with enough force. It
’s fitted correctly
when the notch on the dispersing tool is aligned with the bottom of the disperser.
Now fix the dispersing tool by tightening the knob (B).
If the dispersing tool is not inserted into disperser and the control knob is pressed to start the dispersion, the display shows
“
“ “
” and the unit does not start.
Note: b
efore turning on the unit, make sure that the dispersing tool is inserted in the liquid and that the receptacle is well
fixed with the vessel holder with safety belt (D).

TO OBTAIN BETTER RESULTS
Diameter of the receptacle with the sample
It is better to disperse using a container slightly larger than the dispersing tool in order to obtain a faster and more
homogeneous solution.
