• Set up the instrument in a spacious area on an even,
stable, clean, non-slip, dry and fireproof surface.
• The feet of the instrument must be clean and undamaged.
• The instrument is not suitable for hand held operation.
• The instrument may heat up when in use.
• Check the instrument and accessories for damage be-

hand injury when operate the in-
strument.
• Ensure that the milling tube is tightly closed.
• Ensure that the milling tube is firmly attached to the
coupling connector on the drive unit prior to operating
the device.
• The instrument must only be operated with a milling
tube attached; without a milling tube the instrument
can't be started.
• Before starting operation, the protective hood of the
device must be closed, otherwise the instrument can
not be started.
• Use:
The Tube Mill control is a batch mill that allows for
both impact milling and cutting milling.
The milling tube closes airtight. This means that the loss
of ground material is equivalent to practically zero.

Safety Instructions

• The milling tube must only be attached and removed
while the motor is stationary.

fer of energy during operation. Wear gloves if necessary
or wait for the tube and material cool down.
• The IKA
operation. Switch off the instrument immediately if any
material leaks from the tube. Clean the instrument.
• Observe the operating instructions of the milling tube.
• The temperature of the material for milling must not ex-
ceed 40 °C.
• Only use tubes approved by IKA.
• Only process samples that will not react dangerously to
the extra energy produced through processing. This also
applies to any extra energy produced in other ways, e.g.
through light irradiation.
• Beware of the risk of flammable materials.
• Do not operate the instrument in explosive atmo-
spheres, with hazardous substances or under water.
• The instrument doesn't start up again automatically fol-
lowing a cut in the power supply.

WARNING

Correct use

Impact milling:
For use with hard, brittle material, dried material or ma-
terial that is brittle because of cold (for example grain,
coffee, etc.). The granularity of the final product is de-
termined by the duration of the grinding, the level to
which the container is filled and the physical property of
the material being processed.
Always open the milling tube care-
fully after use, as the material in
the tube may be hot due to trans-
milling tubes must always be closed during
®
Only process dry solid sample with
the device. Never use it for pro-
cessing liquid samples.
