It is important to keep a record of all hazardous substances used in the system
for protection of service and maintenance personnel.
Always adopt responsible procedures for the disposal of waste samples. Most
local laws forbid the disposal of many chemicals in such a manner as to allow
their entry into the water system. The user is advised to seek local advice as to
the means available for disposal of chemical wastes in the area of use. For rec-
ommendations see the
Materials Safety Data Sheets
.
The surfaces of the system may be permanently damaged if samples are spilt
onto them. If a spillage occurs, disconnect the system from the power supply
before scrupulously cleaning it up.
Moving the system
If it is necessary to move the system, follow these guidelines:
Always disconnect the computer and power supply before attempting to move
the system.
Always adopt proper lifting techniques to avoid back injury.
Always lift the instrument by holding the handholds under its base. Never lift
an instrument by its covers. Refer to the
Unpacking instructions
provided.
If the system is moved large distances, we recommend that it is repacked in its
original packaging.
