Instruction Manual V 1.1 - 11/2002

5.5

Priming

Pressing the PRIME key opens the
dispensing valve as long as the
key  is  pressed.  If  the  operating
pressure dropped with extended

non-operating time, the pump is automatically
switched on after pressing the key to build up
operating pressure again.

If  the  tubing  between  mountant  bottle  and
dispensing  valve  and  the  nozzle  are  filled
with  air,  hold  the  dispensing  valve  during
the  priming  in  such  a  way  that  the  nozzle
opening  points  upward  until  mountant  exits
the  nozzle.

5.

Operating the CV5030

Mountant  can  be  let  off  into  the  prime  con-
tainer  at  the  paused  position  for  the  dis-
pensing  valve  (do  not  overfill!).

After  refilling  or  replacing  the  mountant
bottle,  please  check  that  all  air  bubbles  es-
cape  from  the  tubing  between  mountant
bottle  and  dispensing  valve  by  means  of
priming.

PRIME  disappears  from  the  display  after
initial  pressing  of  the  key;  at  this  time,  the
coverslipping  process  can  be  started.

Place  the  slides  in  the  input  rack  so  that  the  side  to
be  coverslipped  points  to  the  front  of  the  unit.  Verify
that  the  slides  are  fitted  loosely  and  straight  in  the
magazine.

Open  the  door  (

1

)  in  front  of  the  bath  (

2

)  (next  to  the

main  power  switch)  and  pull  out  the  guide  rail.  If  the
bath is not in the front position, it will automatically be
transported  to  this  position.

Pull  the  bath  out  of  the  unit  on  the  guide  rails.  Place
the  filled  slide  racks  (

3

)  in  the  insert  (cuts  pointing  to

the  user  side).

Push the bath into the unit. Push the guide rails in until
they  stop  and  close  the  door.

Check  coverslip  magazine  and  mountant  bottle  for
sufficient  supply.

Insert  the  dispensing  valve  into  the  coverslipping
position.

Check  the  output  racks  for  sufficient  output  capacity.
