General Operating Precautions
DANGER
Ensure that the power is switched off at both the AC mains
supply outlet and at the back of the unit before inserting or
removing the mains power cord.
However, if a spillage occurs in or over the unit, always switch
the power off and unplug the power cord at the mains supply
outlet first, before attempting to deal with the spill.
DANGER
The unit is intended for use with aqueous solutions and
suspensions only.
Never use the unit to mix any explosive, volatile or highly
reactive substances or chemicals.
WARNING
To avoid liquid spills and possible cross-contamination of
samples, only use sealed plates and closed tubes when
mixing and vortexing.
WARNING
Injury can occur from flying plates and tubes if they are not
correctly inserted, or if the maximum recommended mixing
speed or total load weight is exceeded.
Always ensure that plates, adaptor blocks and tubes are
correctly and securely inserted, and that plate dimensions
comply with the ANSI/SBS Standards for Microplates.
WARNING
Serious injury can occur from improper vortexing of tubes, and
tubes may be damaged, broken or destroyed.
Never vortex tubes made of glass or other fragile material.
WARNING
Injury or contamination can occur from sample material being
expelled from the plates or tubes whilst mixing and vortexing.
Only ever mix and vortex in sealed plates and closed tubes.
Always follow prescribed laboratory procedures and use
appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE, such as
gloves, clothing, goggles, etc) when handling samples.
