Fitting the Holders
ATTENTION
The threaded holes of the tray can be damaged if the fastening
screws are not screwed straight into the thread:
–
Place the screws vertically on the drill holes.
–
Ensure they can be tightened easily.
ATTENTION
All holders are supplied with pre-fitted screws. If a test tube holder
or a box for microtiter plates is placed on the Sticky Stuff adhesive
matting, there is a risk that the adhesive matting is damaged by
protruding screws.
Remove the screws before you place test tube holders or boxes for
microtiter plates on the Sticky Stuff adhesive matting.
Fitting a holder
Clamps, test tubes and boxes for microtiter plates are fixed to the
tray using screws. The device is delivered with pre-fitted screws (2).
The screws are each secured with one flat gasket at the bottom (1) so
that they cannot fall out. Only use the screws provided or screws of
the same size for assembly.
To fit a holder, proceed as follows:
Procedure
1.
Loosen flat gaskets.
2.
Position the holder on the tray.
3.
Centre a screw on the threaded hole in the tray and screw it in
loosely. It must still be possible to turn the holder.
4.
Align the holder so that all screws are vertical above the respec-
tive threaded hole in the tray.
5.
Insert screws loosely. Ensure that the screws are screwed in
straight and do not tilt.
6.
Evenly tighten all screws cross-wise.
