PLEASE READ ALL OF THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY 
BEFORE USING YOUR STILL.

• 

The Still should always be run on a flat dry surface in a well ventilated area. 

 

• 

Always unplug the power cord when filling or cleaning. Only use the wall 

socket switch for turning power on/off.  

• 

Never immerse the still in water, or allow the body base or the top cover to 

become wet inside. 

• 

This unit is not intended for use by children.  Do not operate this unit where it 

is possible for children to reach it. 

• 

Do not remove the top cover when the still is operating. 

• 

Allow at least 20 minutes for cooling, after switching the power off, before 

you remove the lid. It is important that the still cool down before reusing. 

• 

Be aware that when operating the still contains boiling liquid. Occasionally 

the lid may lift without warning and spill boiling liquid. Keep hands and face 

clear from the immediate vicinity of the still when operating. 

• 

The still is fitted with a high temperature cut-out. This is used as an automatic 

cut-out for water distilling and must be reset before the still can be used 

again. Use the reset button on the base of the still. It is not applicable for 

alcohol distilling as you are only distilling off about 20% of the starting 

volume. However it will provide a safety back-up if you forget to turn the still 

off and it is allowed to boil dry. If this happens you will need to press the reset 

button on the base of the still before it can be operated again.
