• Do not move or transport the device when it is operating
or connected to the power supply.
• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories de-
scribed in the "Accessories" chapter.
• Always disconnect the plug before attaching accessories.
• The device can only be disconnected from the mains sup-
ply by pulling out the mains plug or the connector plug.
• The device can only be opened by technical experts, even
during repair. The device must be unplugged from the
power supply before opening. Live parts inside the device
may still be live for some time after unplugging from the
power supply.
NOTICE
• The working plate can heat up due to the action of the
drive magnets at high motor speeds.
• The centre of gravity of the assembly must lie within the
surface on which it is set up.
• It may be possible for wear debris from rotating accessory
parts to reach the material being processed.
• When using PTFE-coated magnetic bars, the following
has to be noted: Chemical reactions of PTFE occur in con-
tact with molten or solute alkali metals and alkaline earth
metals, as well as with fine powders of metals in groups 2
and 3 of the periodic system at temperatures above 300
°C - 400 °C. Only elementary fluorine, chlorotrifluoride
and alkali metals attack it; halogenated hydrocarbons
have a reversible swelling effect.

For protection of the user:
WARNING
to be processed. There may be a risk from:
- splashing and evaporation of liquids
- ejection of parts
- release of toxic or combustible gases.
DANGER
cessing. This also applies to any extra energy produced in
other ways, e.g. through light irradiation.
Effects of the magnetic field
have to be taken into account
(e.g. data storage media, cardiac
pacemakers ...).
Wear your personal protective
equipment in accordance with
the hazard category of the media
Only process media that will not
react dangerously to the extra
energy produced through pro-
DANGER
if you have any questions.
WARNING
- flammable materials
- incorrect container size
- overfilling of media
- unsafe condition of container.
For protection of the device and accessories:
• Set up the device in a spacious area on an even, stable,
clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.
• The voltage stated on the type plate must correspond to
the mains voltage.
• Removable parts must be refitted to the device to prevent
the infiltration of foreign objects, liquids etc..
• Protect the device and accessories from bump and impact.
• Do not cover the device, even partially e.g. with metallic
plates or film. This may result in overheating.
Performing trials:
NOTICE
- the medium splashes out of the vessel
- the device is not running smoothly
- dynamic forces start to cause the device and/or the ves-
sels placed on it to move around.
• Make certain that the device is set at the lowest speed
(left hand position) before commissioning; otherwise, the
device will start to run at the speed set in last operation.
Gradually increase the speed.
• After an interruption in the power supply or a mechani-
cal interruption during working process, the device will
restart automatically.
Process pathogenic materials only
in closed vessels under a suitable
fume hood. Please contact IKA
Beware of hazards due to:
Reduce the speed if:
