Head/Accessory Installation Instructions
Installing the cup head, 7,6cm head or other head attachments:
1. Move the 3-way rocker switch to the center, off/standby position. For the Fixed Speed Vortex Mixer disconnect the power cord from the
wall outlet.
2. If using an Insert Retainer with tube holder, insert foam tube holder into Insert Retainer by lining up the recessed notches of the foam with
the fingers of the retainer. Push foam to the bottom of the retainer.
3. Place head on post of the unit, aligning the flat "alignment mark" inside of the head mounting hole with the flat "alignment mark" on the
post.
4. Press center of head down firmly until it snaps into place. DO NOT use a 7,6cm head without the 7,6cm rubber head cover. Add samples to
attachments after the head is secured onto the Vortex Mixer. Be sure samples are secure before turning unit on.
5. To remove an installed head, hold the Vortex Mixer housing with one hand and firmly pull the head straight up. Larger heads may require
using both hands to force head off post. Remove samples before removing attachments.
Installing Vessel Harness:
1. Install Insert Retainer without foam tube holder onto Vortex Mixer.
2. Stretch vessel harness elastic bands over opposite fingers of the Insert Retainer. Place bands on either upper or lower notches of the
retainer.
3. Place sample in center of the harness bands. Be sure sample is secure before turning unit on.
