NOTICE TO PARENTS AND CHILDREN
Dear Parents,
Before starting the experiments, read through the instructions along with your child and discuss the information on this
page. Check to make sure that the models are assembled correctly and help your child with the experiments.
Dear Researchers,
When you first unpack this experiment kit, the best thing to do is to familiarize yourself with the materials inside it. Only
use the materials contained in the kit for these models and experiments. Be sure to run the models on clean, cool tap
water only. It is also important to pay attention to the proper way to operate the pump, pressure tank, and air+water
motor. Handle the pressure tank carefully and only run it in good condition. If air is pumped into the empty pressure
tank, operate the pump 25 times at most (Models 20 – 30). When the pressure tank is half-filled with water, do not
pump more than 20 times (Models 1 – 19). Otherwise, the components may be put under too much pressure and they
could get damaged. Do not unscrew the pressure tank while it is under pressure.
Ideally, conduct the experiments in a quiet place that can take a little abuse, and where the water will cause no harm.
Wipe up any spilled water immediately.
Decide together with an adult where you should assemble your models and perform the experiments (outside or in the
house).
For models used in water, note the following:
NOTE! Only use in calm water under adult supervision.
For all water gun models, note the following:
NOTE! Do not aim at eyes or face. Do not squirt the water spray at or near the face of people or animals.
After completing the experiment, use the switch to release any air remaining in the system. Dry o all components and
return them to the box. That way, nothing will get lost.
And now: Have fun with the experiments!
