OPERATION AND CONTROLS
Before connecting power cord with mains outlet, make sure that:
- your item is designed for your local voltage and frequency (data plate on item).
- master switch is set to "0" and all controls are in "min." position (turn CCW
completely); this way you avoid spilling fluids by too intense shaking action.
Carefully close your vessels and select appropiate shaking intensity (if vessel
remain open) to avoid splashes and spillage.
We recommend to start with low shaking speed and gradually increase frequency to
avoid accidential shaking at high speed.
When handling hazardous fluids, make reference to applicable safety information.
Do not close ventholes of heater module.
Maintain unobstructed circulation of air under hood..
Avoid entry of foreign matter or spilled fluids through ventholes in heater module.
Negligence might damage fan (heater element).
