6.2 TUBE HOLDERS
Cleaning the tube holders is not recommended. Should a capillary tube break or a
sealant blowout occur, simply discard the affected tube and tube holder in
accordance with proper laboratory procedures and replace with a new tube holder.
Inspect tube holders regularly and replace them when they become dirty and/or
contaminated. Replacement tube holders are available (See Section 8).
6.3 INSPECTIONS
Periodically inspect the lid, lid gasket and rotor to ensure there are no cracks or
damage.

When transporting the HemataStat II, removal of the rotor or placement of packing
material around the rotor will help prevent damage to the motor shaft in the event the
unit is dropped.
