Handling the rotor

Swinging Bucket Rotor 7500 4393

On swinging bucket rotors, at regular inter-
vals, apply a light coating of lubricant to the
rotor body trunnion pins and to the corre-
sponding mating surfaces on the buckets!

Lubricant 7000 6692 is supplied with the centrifuge.

All positions have to be loaded with
identical carrier buckets always!
