Maintenance
Warning!
Do not use any solvent on the unit that may attack plastic
or cause cracks in the rotor. Ensure the rotor is protected
from corrosion and mechanical damage. The rotor must be
cleaned with a neutral cleaning liquid.
If hasardous sample is spilled on the unit and or leaked
into the unit, do not run the centrifuge unless it is safe to
do so.
Your mini-centrifuge is normally maintenance-free. Clean unit
only when it is not plugged into an electrical outlet. When
necessary, the housing and rotor can be wiped using a damp
cloth and a mild, non-corrosive detergent.
1. Remove rotor from unit
2. Remove screws from the bottom of the rotor
3. Clean as needed
4. Reasssemble rotor, making sure that the alignment tab is
engaged into the slot.
5. Test run reassembled EMPTY rotor to ensure it is still
balanced
