Cleaning

8.1 Grinding elements

Clean the grinding bowl and grinding balls each time after using them:

e.g. clean them under running water using a brush and a commercially

available cleaning agent.
Add sand and water until the grinding bowl is about half full and "grind

to clean" for 2 to 3 minutes in the laboratory planetary mill.
Cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner is permitted.
For sterilisation in the heat cabinet, only heat the grinding elements up

to 120°C.
Grinding elements made of agate may only be heated up to 100°C.

CAUTION!
Cool grinding elements made of agate, sintered corundum,

zirconium oxide and silicon nitride slowly and carefully.
Do not heat the grinding elements in a microwave under

any circumstances (heating is too fast).
They must never be exposed to thermal shocks as this

could cause irreparable damage to the parts → They will fall

apart in an explosive manner.
