Correct Use - IKA T 10 basic ULTRA-TURRAX Mode D'emploi

• Powder can not be too close to the flange. It can be blown away
by air turbulences of the drive.
• The instrument starts up again following a cut in the power sup-
ply. Please note that the instrument must be switched off at the
ON/OFF switch in this case before the power supply is recon-
nected.
• The instrument can only be disconnected from the mains supply
by pulling out the mains plug or the connector plug.
• The socket for the mains cord must be easily accessible.
• Always disconnect the plug before fitting accessories.
• Safe operation is only guaranteed with the accessories described

and bearings will be destroyed if the tools are
not cooled by the medium.
• The voltage stated on the nameplate must correspond to the
mains voltage.
• Protect the instrument and accessories from bumps and impacts.
• The instrument can only be opened by experts.
• Removable parts must be refitted to the instrument to prevent
the infiltration of foreign objects, liquids etc.
• Do not cover the ventilation slots on the drive in order to ensure
adequate cooling of the drive.
• The gasket and bearings are made of PTFE and rustproof steel; the
following points should therefore be noted: Chemical reactions of
PTFE occur in contact with molten or solute alkali metals and alka-
line earth metals, as well as with fine powders of metals in groups
2 and 3 of the periodic system at temperatures above 300 °C - 400
°C. Only elementary fluorine, chlorotrifluoride and alkali metals at-
tack it; halogenated hydrocarbons have a reversible swelling effect.
