Check whether the voltage specified on the type plate matches the
mains voltage available.
Set the micro-titer plate at an angle by pressing diagonally against the
extendable round band around a corner. Place the micro-titer plate
evenly on the holding surface and push it outward under the edges of
the sheet that are bent inward.
Before you switch on the device, rotate the turn dial for speed control
as far as it will go to the left.
If these conditions are met, the device is ready to operate after plugging
in the mains plug. If these procedures are not followed, safe operation
cannot be guaranteed and/or the equipment may be damaged. Please
note the ambient conditions indicated in the Technical details (tempera-
ture, and relative humidity).
You can turn the device on with the power switch (1), which is located
on the right side of the device. After you have turned on the device, all
the segments of the LED display (2) briefly light up and an audio signal
is heard. After this self-test of the device, the speed display shows the
value ”0”; the drive is turned off. Now select the desired speed in revo-
lutions per minute on the turn dial for speed adjustment (3).
The following options are available for operating the device. You can
adjust them with the buttons on the front foil pad. When you press a
button, an audio signal confirms your action.
A: Continuous operation
The device is in continuous operation mode when the LED display (2)
indicates a value of ”0”. To start the drive in continuous operation, press
the ”Start/Stop” button (4) again one more time. The drive starts to run
at the adjusted speed. The LED display (2) shows two small zeros (”oo”).
To stop operation, press the ”Start/Stop” button (4) again. The drive
stops and the LED display shows the value ”0” again.
The ”1” button (6) and the ”10” button (5) have no function in conti-
nuous operation.
B: Time switch
In this mode (Timer), you can select an operating time in the range of 1
to 99 minutes. You can adjust the desired time setting with the ”1” key
(6) and the ”10” key (5). Every time you press the ”1” key (6), the time
setting is incremented by 1 minute. Correspondingly, every time you
press the ”10” key (5), the time setting is incremented by 10 minutes.
The set time is shown on the LED display (5). If the ones or tens place
shows a ”9”, it will be replaced the next time the button is pressed by
a ”0”.
Timer mode is indicated by the dot on the lower right-hand corner of
the LED display (2). To start the drive, press the ”Start/Stop” button
once (4). The drive starts to run at the adjusted speed and the decimal
point flashes.
The LED display (2) indicates the remaining time in minutes and counts
down backwards until it reaches a value of 0.
When the set time has expired, the drive stops and an audio signal is
heard three times. The LED display (2) shows a value of ”0” and the dot
that identifies Timer mode stops flashing.
You can stop the drive while the timer is running at any time by pressing
the ”Start/Stop” button (4). The LED display (2) will show a value of ”0”
afterward in this case as well, and the dot that identifies Timer mode
will stop flashing.
