Page 11: Power Supply And Manual Motor Control
MU1 | User Manual Power Supply and Manual Motor Control 1. Ensure that the manual control knob is in its centre position (feel the slight "click"!). Otherwise the motor might start moving, when the power supply is plugged in. 2. Plug in the power supply connector. - Page 12 MU1 | User Manual 4. Turn the control knob in order to move the motor. Clockwise turning lets the motor move down, counter-clockwise turning will let move it up. The motor speed is proportional to the turning angle. In order to stop again, turn the knob back into its centre position.

MU1 | User Manual MAINTENANCE PRECAUTION: The performance of the depends strongly on the conditions of its precision mechanics. Ensure that its parts are kept free from dirt, dust, liquids and other contaminants! Be aware, that aquariums aerated with bubble stones will deposit a fine spray of water drops in the surrounding. - Page 15 Under humid conditions you should leave the power supply connected (green LED on) even if you do not perform any measurements. That way the motor will provide a constant heating within the housing of the MU1, lowering the risk of water condensation.
