NOTE: Due to the robust mechanical design of this unit, more downward force
is required to operate this unit in Touch Mode to mix single tubes as compared
to other models. Another option is to set your unit to the ON mode for mixing a
single tube.

Perating iP
To ensure the stability of your vortex mixer, it is very important to start with a
smooth, clean work surface and the mixers (4) feet. If the mixer starts to "walk",
remove the power to the unit and clean the work surface and the (4) feet with
isopropyl alcohol.

1. Make sure the 3-way rocker switch is in the center, off position. Plug the power
cord into a properly grounded outlet.
2. For continuous operation, push the rocker switch to the right, on position. For
intermittent/touch operation, push the rocker switch to
the left, touch position.
3. In either case, turn the speed knob to the desired setting. In the on position,
you will see the head in motion immediately. In the touch position, the vessel
you are using must be pushed down on the head attachment to achieve motion.
To get the desired mix, vary the speed, using the speed knob, and/or vary the
angle of contact and pressure against the head.
4. When finished with either continuous or intermittent/touch operation, return
rocker switch to the center, off position.
5. The continuous, on mode is for the accessories.
6. The intermittent, touch mode is intended for short mixing times of one (1)
minute or less at full speed.
7. To completely cut off power to the unit, disconnect the power cord from the
wall outlet.
