Step 1. Connect the powercord to the AC Inlet located at the back of unit. Power On the 6875 FM. “Please
Wait” appears on the screen during start-up as the software loads. After a brief animation, the screen
will switch to the Home Screen.
Step 2. Fill the tub with optional auto-fill or manually with liquid nitrogen to the fill mark (approx. 2 inches
below lip of the tub). Always close the lid slowly to avoid splashing of LN and latch down. It is
normal to see a visible vapor stream exiting the vent at the right-side of the unit. Do not block vent.
How To Operate 6875 Freezer/Mill
Set up the 6875 FM in a well ventilated, unconfined
space. The Freezer/Mill should be run on an open
countertop, in ambient air, with recommended
maximum relative humidity 70% from 5°C – 31°C
(40°F – 88°F).
When working with liquid nitrogen directly or
indirectly, the LN Tank valve or hose, or chilled
Freezer/Mill components, cryogenic gloves must be
worn to protect hands. A face shield is recommended
to protect eyes from possible splashing. Wear the
proper protection equipment (PPE).
