STEP 2

Attach the sliding switch to the chassis

bracket.

Important! Take a look at the terminals at

the rear. The area where no wire is

attached is the “off” position. Slide the

switch to “off.”

General Information

How to Assemble the Bubble BlowerContents

DEAR PARENTS!

Please help your child with

assembly, and offer your

support and assistance with

the experiments. Before

starting the experiments, read

through the manual together

and be sure to follow all of the

steps described there. Please

be careful not to let small kit

parts get into the hands of

small children. Encourage

your child to repeat an

experiment if it doesn’t yield

the desired result the first

time. Above all, pay attention

to the safety information.

Have fun with the experiments!

First, assemble the fan. Mount the motor

on the gear box in such a way that the

wires point toward the lower edge of the

box. Place the cover over the motor.

You will also need:

› Two AA batteries (1.5-volt, type

AA/LR6/penlight)

› Soap bubble liquid (purchased

or made yourself, see back side)

› Small Phillips-head screwdriver

(“crosshead” screwdriver)

Attach the soap bubble wheel to the gear

box. First place it on and then screw in the

screw tightly.

In this step, you will be installing the gear

box on the chassis. To do that, first hook

on the left side (from the perspective of

the battery compartment) of the gear

box, and then press down on the right

side until it clicks into place.

Now turn the gear box over and insert the

fan wheel onto the motor shaft.

NOTE ! Not suitable for children under 3 years of age. There is a danger of choking due

to small parts that may be swallowed or inhaled.

NOTE ! Only for use by children 8 years and older. Instructions are included for parents

or other supervising individuals. Please follow them! Save the packaging and

instructions. They contain important information.

• To operate the bubble blower, you will need two AA batteries (1.5-volt, type LR6/AA/

penlight), which could not be included in the kit due to their limited shelf life.

• The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited. A short circuit can cause the wires

to overheat and the batteries to explode.

• Different types of batteries or new and used batteries are not to be mixed.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium)

batteries.

• Always insert batteries in the right polarity orientation, pressing them gently into the

battery compartment.

• Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries. They could explode!

• Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged under adult supervision.

• Rechargeable batteries are to be removed from the toy before being charged.

• Exhausted batteries are to be removed from the toy.

• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with environmental provisions.

• Be sure not to bring batteries into contact with coins, keys, or other metal objects.

• Avoid deforming the batteries.

• The wires are not to be inserted into socket-outlets.

None of the electrical or electronic components in this kit should be

disposed of in the regular household trash when you have finished using

them; instead, they must be delivered to a collection location for the

recycling of electrical and electronic devices. The symbol on the product,

instructions for use, or packaging will indicate this.

The materials are reusable in accordance with their designation. By reusing or recycling

used devices, you are making an important contribution to the protection of the

environment. Please consult your local authorities for the appropriate disposal

location.

EXPERIMENT 1

Insert the batteries into the

compartment.

Note! Pay attention to the

polarity. You will find tiny

plus and minus signs on the

battery. The same signs

appear in the battery

compartment. Insert the

batteries in such a way that

the plus sign on the battery

lines up with the plus sign

in the compartment, and

the minus sign on the

battery lines up with the

minus sign in the

compartment.

WHAT KIND OF WATER IS

BEST FOR SOAP BUBBLES?

Ordinary tap water and spring

water often contain minerals such

as calcium, which makes them “hard.” For soap

bubbles, on the other hand, “soft” water

(without calcium) is better, because the softer

the water is, the longer the bubbles will last. The

best thing to use is so-called “distilled water.”

STEP 8

Note!

Do not pour any liquid onto the

batteries or the contact springs. Be

careful not to let any soap solution get

into your eyes. If this happens, rinse

immediately with water!

Your Blower Machine Blows Soap Bubbles

WHY The motor turns the

soap bubble wheel. As the wheel turns,

it dips into the soap bubble solution.

The rings on the wheel take up the

soap bubble solution. At the same

time, the motor powers a small fan.

The fan blows air into the rings. That is

what creates the soap bubbles.

Check It Out

How to Assemble the Bubble Blower

Fill the soap solution container in the

chassis with soap bubble solution. Be

careful not to spill any, and do not fill it

higher than the marked line.

Now you will connect up

the electrical circuit:

• Attach the black battery

compartment wire to

spring C.

• Attach the red battery

compartment wire to

spring A.

• The red motor wire goes

to B.

• The black motor wire

goes to C.

• The red sliding switch

wire goes to A.

• The black sliding switch

wire goes to B.

Important: To attach the wires, the

contact springs have to be bent

far enough to create a slight gap

into which you insert the wire.

c

The soap bubble blowing

machine is turned on and

off with the sliding switch.

As soon as you switch it

on, the soap bubble wheel

will start to turn and the

fan will blow lots of

shimmering bubbles of

varying sizes.

Check It Out

If you just mix soap and water,

what you get is bubbles that

burst quickly. To make a

really good soap bubble

solution, you have to add

something to the mixture to make

the soap bubbles last longer –

glycerin. This alcohol-containing

Colors come from white light, which

contains a combination of all visible

colors. Light moves in waves, and each

wave has a different length. When light

waves strike a film of soap, most of the

light travels through the soap skin. A

small portion, however, gets thrown back

(reflected), like with a mirror. In this

process, the light waves on the front wall

of the soap bubble and the waves on the

back wall become superimposed on each

other, over and over. This phenomenon is

known as interference (wave

superposition). This kind of interference is

the reason for the alternating pattern of

different colors on a soap bubble.

HOW LONG HAVE THERE

BEEN SOAP BUBBLES??

Soap bubbles are an age-old

amusement. Soap was invented

by the ancient Sumerians over

, years ago. Since that time,

soap bubbles have been inspiring

people the world over.

liquid makes the bubbles

tougher, more thick-

skinned, and longer-

lasting. Still, there is no

single best recipe,

because soap solutions

always behave differently

depending on the climate and time

of year.

SUPERBIG BUBBLES?

EXPERIMENT 2

Making Your Own Soap Bubble Solution

Of course, you can buy soap bubble solution

almost anywhere. But it’s much more exciting

to make your own. It’s more fun too!

YOU WILL NEED:

 liter distilled water; - tablespoons of

dishwashing liquid;  teaspoon glycerin

(from the drug store); small bucket or bowl

HERE’S HOW:

. Mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of dishwashing

liquid (which contains a lot of soap or

detergent) and one teaspoon of glycerin

with one liter of distilled water.

. Stir the ingredients together in a small

bucket or a bowl and let the mixture sit for

one or two days. As you will see, you can

hardly get a better soap bubble solution

than this!
