Power connections
Always connect the Mixer up to a grounded or earthed socket
and outlet. External couplings and extension cables must
incorporate a protective conductor (3-pole couplings, cables
and plug-and-socket devices). The protective conductor must
never be interrupted under any circumstances.
Check that the voltage of the socket-outlet corresponds to the
value marked on the rating plate.
The Mixer has adhesive rubber feet, so it is best to place it on
a firm, clean and level surface.
Keep the original packaging in a safe place in case you ever
want to move the Mixer.
Fill the sample beaker up to the blue mark
ቢ with warm water
and insert in the mixer. Start the mixing cycle and allow to run
for 10 seconds.
Follow this procedure whenever you use a diaphragm seal for
the first time. This will prolong the life of the diaphragm seal.
Never put the mixer into operation without any sample material.
Dry runninig can result in the destruction of the diaphragm seal.
