This rubber plate has a soft foam rubber attachment. Several test
tubes can be taken in the hand and pressed onto the foam rub-
ber attachment while the machine is running. It is also possible
to agitate round flasks of up to 100ml. To do this, the round flask
is also pressed onto the moving foam rubber attachment.
Of course it is also possible to place an Erlenmeyer flask or a
Petri dish on the attachment and create a slow vibrating motion
in the medium.
If these conditions are met, the device is ready to operate after
plugging in the mains plug. If these procedures are not followed,
safe operation cannot be guaranteed and/or the equipment may
be damaged.
Please note the ambient conditions indicated in the Technical

After the device has been turned on, the control light comes on
three times.
If the motor is locked or if a load is placed on it resulting in a hig-
her temperature than is permitted, the device is turned off auto-
matically by the safety circuit and the control light flashes. To eli-
minate the error, the weight of the material must be reduced.
