For best results, the centrifuge should be housed in a controlled environment. It is recommended 
that the centrifuge be secured to the benchtop, table, stand etc. using the hardware supplied. Allow 
for optimum working clearance around the unit. Mount centrifuge loosely with larger holes in the 
tabletop, to allow room for slight movement of centrifuge. Shown in Figures 1-3. Ensure the unit is 
level by adjusting the shock mounts.
