IKA universal grinder M20 is suitable for carrying out low-loss grin-
ding of hard and brittle substances as of grain size 6 - 7mm. The
grinders operate without creating dust or lost. Beaters, blades and
grinding are replaceable. The useful volume of the grinding cham-
ber is 250ml for the M20 grinder.
Hard and brittle ground material is crushed by means of beaters or
blades ratating at high speed.
Oil substances or those that are given to smearing and which are
not capable of being ground at room temperature have to be coo-
led for grinding (e.g. embrittled with liquid nitrogen).
Please unpack the equipment carefully and check for any dama-
ges. It is important that any damages which may have arisen
during transport are ascertained when unpacking. If applicable a
fact report must be set immediately (post, rail or forwarder).

stainless steel beater, one set of tools and operating instructioins.
Check whether the voltage specified on the type plate matches

thed (protective earth conductor contact). 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.
