Never fail to ground the unit.
This unit uses 3-core power code (including ground wire). Be sure to ground the unit for safety.
Be cautious using flammable chemicals
Since this unit is not of explosion proof, do not use in flammable or explosive environments.
The flask clamp contains a strong spring. Be careful not to break the glass
apparatus
The enclosed flask clamp contains a strong spring to hold the glass apparatus firmly. Be careful
not to break the glass.
Use a trap.
Use a trap when you decompress by hydraulic rotary vacuum pump. When you use our Handy
Aspirator, fill to overflow.
Maintain the vacuum seal.
● If the vacuum seal dries, friction occurs between the rotary joint, creating a strange noise.
(This can cause problems.)
● The vacuum seal is expendable. Exchange the seal in case of vacuum-down.
● Put silicon grease onto the ripped side of vacuum seal so that it might not dry. If you are afraid
of sample contamination, use liquid sample. However, you can’t use organic sample.
