This symbol indicates a potential risk and alerts you to proceed with
caution.
This symbol indicates the presence of high voltage and warns the user
to proceed with caution.
This symbol indicates risks associated with hot surfaces.
1.2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety instructions
Claims for damages in any form whatsoever, for injury to persons or
damage to the machine, caused through non-observance of the
following safety instructions, are excluded.
Use according to the intended purpo
se
Do not make any alterations to the machine and use only approved
spare parts and accessories. Otherwise the Declaration of Conformity
will lose its validity and this will also lead to the loss of any guarantee
claims.
Transport
Do not knock, shake or throw the LM250/LM1000 during transport.
Otherwise the electronic and mechanical components may be damaged.
Packing material
Please keep the packing material for the duration of the guarantee
period. In case of a complaint and return of the machine in unsuitable
packing material, your guarantee claim will be lost.
Temperature variations
If the LM250/LM1000 is subjected to high temperature variations, protect
it against condensed water. Otherwise the electronic components may
be damaged.
Ambient temperature
If the temperature drops below +5°C or exceeds +40°C, electronic and
mechanical components can be damaged. Performance can be
changed to an unknown extent.

Atmospheric humidity
If the humidity exceeds 85%, electronic and mechanical components
can be damaged. Performance can be changed to an unknown extent.
Electrical connection
If the values for the mains power supply on the name plate are not
observed, the electrical and mechanical components may be damaged.
Inserting grinding media
Ensure that the grinding media are inserted correctly in the machine.
Otherwise they can be damaged, when starting the machine
Removing and opening hot grinding media
When removing and opening hot grinding media, always wear protective
gloves. There is a danger of burning the hands
Materials
Observe the relevant regulations and directives for handling chemicals
and hazardous materials.
Milling of materials, which give a risk of fire or explosion, is prohibited.
Cleaning
Do not clean the LM250/LM1000 under running water. Danger to life
through electric shock.
Use only a soft cloth moistened with water. Cleaning agents and
solvents should not be used, not for cleaning the milling tools either.
Repair
For your own safety, repairs must be carried out only by authorized
service technicians.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LM250/LM1000 is a laboratory machine, which is suitable for pulverizing and
homogenizing hard and brittle materials in the dry and wet state.
It is used for fast pulverizing.
The closed milling pulverizing system guarantees complete recovery of the samples.
Final finenesses of down to 20-40 μm can be achieved, depending on the milling time
and the specific properties of the sample material. The optimum filling of a
LM250/LM1000 is around 1-1.3 Liters of sample material.
The sample quantity should not be less than 25% of the bowl volume.
The puck may otherwise damage the bowl.
The bowl, puck and lid must always be made of identical material.
3. TECHNICAL FEATURES
3.1. CONSTRUCTION
The housing of LM250/LM1000 is made of steel plate with powder coated RAL5005
paint.
Protective equipment
The milling chamber of the LM250/LM1000 is safely closed by an electrical safety
switch.
Starting of the machine is possible only when:
- power is connected;
- air pressure is sufficient;
- the emergency switch is not activated;
- all parameters are given to the digital program of the machine.

4. INSTALLATION
4.1. UNPACKING
Before the installation, carefully examine the delivery for possible damage or missing
parts. Open the crate and take the machine out of the box. Check that the machine
has not been visibly damaged during the transport.
Please keep the packing material for the duration of the guarantee period. In case of
a complaint and return of the machine in unsuitable packing material, your guarantee
claim will be lost.
Check that the mains cord is compatible with the local standard.
If any kind of damage occurred during transport, immediately make a complaint to
the carrier. Any incorrect delivery or missing parts should be reported to the
distributor.
Release the orange fixing cord.

4.2. SELECTING THE RIGHT PLACE
When selecting the right place for the machine, please consider the following:
- Put the device on smooth, horizontal and stable place.
- Leave enough space beyond the device for normal air circulation, min. 200 mm at
the back of the machine.
- Leave enough space around the device, that you will easy control and maintain it.
- Don’t use the device in surroundings, where there are fast temperature and
humidity changes. Also avoid places exposed to direct sunlight and places nearby
heating devices.
- Avoid places, where the possibility of shocks and vibrations exists.
Note: The machine should not be placed so, that it is difficult to pull out the
cord plug from mains power supply.
4.3. CONNECTING THE POWER CORD
The correct voltage and frequency for the LM250/LM1000 are given on the name
plate. Ensure that these values correspond to the available power supply system.
Fit one end of the power cord, included in the delivery, into the mains socket on the
machine. Connect the other end of the cord to a grounded wall socket.
To avoid interference from noise, surges and spikes, a dedicated line is preferred. If
no such line is available, avoid lines to which powerful electric motors, refrigerators
and similar devices are connected.
The power can be turned on and off by the emergency switch, located on the front
cover at the right side of the machine. Light in the switch indicates, when the power is
on.
4.4. ENVIRONMENT CONDITIONS
The machine has been built for operating in laboratory environment. Therefore the
environmental conditions should be the following:
- Temperature from +5°C to +40°C
- Humidity up to 85% RH, non-condensing
