    VORTEX-GENIE® mixers are the "Gold Standard" for laboratory mixers. The quality
    and reliability, that you have come to know so well, are characteristics that are, by
    design, an integral part of all GENIE™ products.

    APPLICATIONS
    The 3-inch Platform accepts single or multiple test tubes,
    beakers and various flasks. The removable cover, made of
    thermoplastic rubber, is highly impervious to chemicals. It
    is, however recommended that spills are blotted quickly. Do
    not attempt to use the 3-inch Platform without the rubber
    cover.

    The Pop-off Cup can accommodate tubes of virtually any


    size or shape from micro tubes to those up to 40mm in
    diameter and 200mm in length. In most instances, tubes
    without caps may be mixed with proper speed control.
    Tubes must be capped when potential aerosols may be haz-
    ardous.

    Catalog numbers:
    0K-0500-902 3-inch Platform with Rubber Cover
    0K-0500-901 3-inch Platform without Rubber Cover

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
    We recommend you retain the original packaging for 90
    days in case you need to return the product for any reason
    to your distributor or Scientific Industries.

    1.0 - Plug the cord into a properly grounded, three


    pronged outlet (120 VAC for the G560 model, 230
    VAC for the G560E model and 100V for the G560-
    100V model).

    2.0 - The VORTEX-GENIE® 2 Mixer has the following modes of operation:

    2.1 - TOUCH MODE:


    Place the toggle switch in the TOUCH position and set the speed control to any
    position between 3 and 10. A setting of 3 is least vigorous mixing and 10 is the
    most vigorous mixing. When you touch a vessel to the 3-inch Platform or Pop-
    off Cup, the mixer will start automatically. Releasing the pressure on the
    Platform or Cup will stop the mixer.

    2.2 - HANDS FREE MODE:


    Place the toggle switch in the ON position and set the speed control to any
    position between 3 and 10. Hands Free mode allows for unattended operation
    that will continue indefinitely until you stop the mixer by placing the toggle
    switch into the OFF position. In this mode, you may use any of the accessory
    attachments available for the VORTEX-GENIE® 2 Mixer. Review instruction
    No. 3.0 before attempting to change attachments.

    Note: The speed control switch should be set between positions 3 and 10 to
    enable the mixing action to start. After the action has started, you may, if
    desired, reduce the speed below position 3 for the duration of the run.
    Before re-starting the mixer, re-set the speed control to a setting higher than
    position 3.

    3.0 - To change accessory mixing attachments, the following sequence is to be


    followed explicitly.

    3.1 - Turn the power OFF by placing the toggle switch into the OFF position.
    3.2 - Grasp the installed attachment and pull straight up until it releases from the
    shaft. A technique of lifting the attachment with your finger tips while using
    your knuckles as a fulcrum will give you the leverage to remove the installed
    attachment component smoothly.

    3.3 - Hold the part you wish to install so the "flat" part of the shaft is aligned with
    the "flat" of the receptacle in the attachment. Alternatively, you may place the
    attachment on the shaft and turn it until you feel the "flats" aligning.

    3.4 - Press attachment firmly downward until it "snaps" into place. The VORTEX-
    GENIE 2 Mixer is now ready to use with the newly installed accessory
    attachment.

    4.0 - With prolonged use, your VORTEX-GENIE 2 Mixer may become warm to the
    touch. The motor will radiate a certain amount of heat that will dissipate by the
    cast zinc housing.

    CAUTION! Do not lift your VORTEX-GENIE 2 Mixer by its attachment. All


    attachments, including the Pop-off Cup and the 3-inch Platform are removable.
    They will pop off easily if you lift them, and snap back on again just as easily
    by aligning the flats and pressing down firmly.

    CAUTION! Failure to follow operating instructions can compromise the


    user's safety.

    CARE AND HANDLING


    Your VORTEX-GENIE 2 Mixer should be given the care normally required for any
    electrical appliance. Avoid wetting or unnecessary exposure to fumes. The finish
    can be washed with water (after unplugging) and soap or detergents, using a cloth or
    sponge. Keep the unit clean by immediately blotting any spills. Replacement parts
    are available through most laboratory equipment distributors or directly from Scientific
    Industries. Refer to "Parts Assembly List" and enclosed multi-fold brochure.

    CAUTION! Unplug from power before cleaning. Do not immerse.
