Safety instructions
For your protection
• Read the operating instructions in full before starting up and
follow the safety instructions.
• Keep the operating instructions in a place where they can be accessed
by everyone.
• Ensure that only trained staff work with the appliance.
• Follow the safety instructions, guidelines, occupatinal health and save-
ty and accident prevention regulations.
• Caution - Magnetism! 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 haz-
ard category of the media to be processed.
Otherwise there is a risk from:
- splashing and evaporation of liquids
- ejection of parts
- release of toxic or combustable gases.
• Use only the AC adapter supplied.
• Set up the appliance in a specious area on an even, stable, clean, non-
8
slip, dry and fireproof surface.
EN
• The base plate must be clean and intact.
• Check the appliance and accessories before hand for damage each
Page
time you use them. Do not use damaged components.
8
• Reduce the speed if
9
- the medium splashes out of the vessel because the speed is too high
9
- the appliance is not running smoothly
9
- the container moves on the base plate.
10
• Beware of hazards due to:
10
- flammable materials
10
- combustible media with a low boiling temperature
10
- incorrect container size
11
- overfilling of media
- unsafe condition of container.
• The appliance may heat up when in use.
• Process pathogenic materials only in closed vessels under a suitable
extractor hood.
• Do not use the device in explosive atmospheres, it is not EX-protected.
• With substances capable of forming an explosive mixture, appropriate
safety measures must be applied, e.g. working under a fume hood.
• To avoid body injury and property damage, observe the relevant safety
and accident prevention measures when processing hazardous materials.
• Only process media that will not react dangerously to the extra energy
produced through processing. This also applies to any extra energy
produced in other ways, e.g. through light irradiation.
• Safe operation is guaranteed only with the use of original IKA acces-
sories.
• The appliance must only be disconnected from the mains supply by
pulling out the plug-in power supply unit.
• The socket for the the plug-in power supply unit must be easely ac-
cessible.
• The appliance starts up again atomatically following a cut in the pow-
er supply.
• Abrasion of the dispersion equipment or the rotating accessories can
get into the medium you are working on.
• Whem using the PTFE-coated magnetic bars, the following has to be
noted: Chemical reactions of PTFE occur in contact with molten or dis-
solved alkaline and alkaline-earth metals, as well as with fineparticeld
powders of metals of the 2. and 3. group of the periodical system at
temperatures above 300-400 °C. Only elementary fluorine, chlorine
trifluoride and alkaline metals do attack PTFE, halogen hydrocarbons
have a reversible swelling effect.

To the protetion of the equipment
Attention: The appliance must not be overpoured with ag-
gressive media! Never put the appliance under water!
• The voltage stated on the nameplate must correspond to the mains
voltage.
• Do not cover the device, even partially e.g. with metallic plates or film.
This results in overheating.
• Protect the appliance and accessories from bumps and impacts.
• Ensure that the base plate is kept clean.
