9) Machine will not operate unless the lid is properly closed.
10) Select the mixing time from the table in this Page for the quantity
of alginate used. Press the START button to run operation
(Fig.10). For safety, the cover of the mixer is locked during ope-
ration. The digital timer will count down in 1 second intervals and
at completion a "beep" will sound and the cover will unlock
!
IMPORTANT: Changing the mixing time will affect the setting
and working time of the alginate. Please set the mixing time as
short as required to obtain longer setting and working time.
NOTE: The working/setting time increases with a lower (water)
temperature. At higher temperatures the time becomes shorter.
The water hardness has the same effect; harder the water used
for mixing, the shorter the working/setting time.
!
IMPORTANT: Pressing the button START/STOP will stop the
mixer immediately. If any abnormal conditions occur during ope-
ration, the mixer should be also stopped inmediately to conduct
an inspection. If the abnormal condition cannot be rectified,
please return mixer for repair
11) When mixing is complete, open the cover and remove the Mixing
bowl. Use the spatula to remove the alginate mixture and fill the
required impression tray(s) immediately. (Fig.11).
WARNING: Although the mixer stops automatically, do not open
the cover until the "beep" has sounded.
SET THE MIXING TIME :
1) The timer has three pre-set memory programs (1). (Each
memory can be altered and re-programmed by the user).
2) Press MEMORY/SELECT button to select time
required for mixing.
3) To manually adjust the time press the s or t button. The
maximum mixing time is 16 seconds. When the mixing is
complete, the mixing time will return to its original pre-
programmed time.
4) To permanently modify a pre-set mixing time, press the
s or t button to the required mixing time. Then press
s or t simultaneously. The mixer will sound 2 beeps and mixing time display will flash
twice.
5) The new mixing time will now be stored as a pre-set in the memory.
CAUTION: Increase mixing time hastens the setting of the impression material.
*If using 50Hz (with water temperature of 10-20°C) time should be set as shown above (2).
**If using 60Hz (with water temperature of 10-20°C) time should be set as shown above (3).
!
IMPORTANT:
1. The above recommendation re alginate measurement and mixing time is an average
time. Any difference in water temperature or room temperature suggested by
the alginate manufacturer will require a different mixing time.
2. Always adhere to the manufacturers instructions when set the mixing time for the
quantity used.
