Warning
THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS REFRACTORY CERAMIC, REFRACTORY CERAMIC FIBER
OR FIBERGLASS (GLASS WOOL) INSULATION WHICH CAN PRODUCE RESPIRABLE
FIBERS AND DUST WHEN HANDLED. THESE FIBERS OR DUSTS CAN CAUSE IRRITA-
TION AND CAN AGGRAVATE PRE-EXISTING RESPIRATORY DISEASE. REFRACTO-
RY CERAMIC INSULATIONS MAY CONTAIN OR MAY FORM CRYSTALLINE SILICA
(CRYSTOBALlTE) WHICH MAY CAUSE LUNG DAMAGE (SILICOSIS).

THE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER (IARC) HAS CLASSI-

FIED REFRACTORY CERAMIC FIBER AND FIBERGLASS AS (2B) POSSIBLY CARCINO-
GENIC. IARC HAS CLASSIFIED CRYSTALLINE SILICA AS (2A) PROBABLY
CARCINOGENIC.

The insulating materials are located in the door, the hearth collar, in the chamber of the
product or the top plate assembly. Tests performed by the manufacturer indicate that there
( is no significant risk of exposure to dust or respirable fibers resulting from operation of this
equipment under normal conditions. However, there may be a risk of exposure to respirable
dusts or fibers when repairing or maintaining the insulating materials, or when otherwise
disturbing the materials in a manner which causes release of dust or fibers therefrom.
Through the use of proper handling procedures you can work safely with these insulating
materials and minimize any exposure. Accordingly, before you repair or replace any insulat-
ing materials, or perform any other servicing on this product which could disturb or cause
exposure to dust from insulating materials, you should consult the appropriate Material
Safety Data Sheets (MSDS's) for such products with respect to proper handling and appro-
priate protective equipment. For additional MSDS's, or additional information concerning
the handling of refractory ceramic products, please contact the Customer Service
Department of Barnstead International Corporation at 1-800-446-6060 or 1-800-553-0039.

To Select a Temperature
Turn the control clockwise to the desired setting.
The lighted "heat" indicator shows when the unit
is turned on. The control maintains a set tem-
perature of the stirring hot plate by turning the ( (
power on and off over short time intervals. The
greater the percentage of time the power is on,
the higher the temperature. At the high position,
power is on continuously and maximum temper-
