INSTALLATION
4. Adjust the leveling feet.
Adjust the leveling feet by turning them
anticlockwise until the incubator is level (Fig. 4).
Note:
Incubating on a sloping tray may adversely
affect the cultivation.
5. Earth the incubator.
Earth the incubator during installation to prevent electric shock. If there is no earth wire at the location,
consult with qualified service personnel.
When an earth must be installed
If an earthed 3-pole outlet is not available, then an earth must be installed. Consult with qualified service
personnel.
Installing an earth fault circuit breaker
If you must use the incubator in a moist or humid location, then it is recommended that an earth fault circuit
breaker be installed in the power supply circuit (i.e., the power supply at the incubator). Have the circuit
breaker installed by qualified service personnel.
Double-stacking
For stacking the incubators securely, refer to the
procedure
included
with
the
optional
double-stacking bracket MCO-170PS or the
stacking plate MCO-170SB.
Note:
Two hooks are attached at the upper rear of
the incubator. When stacking incubators, fix the
upper incubator to the wall with these hooks and
wire or chain (Fig. 5).
Note:
When stacking the incubators with our CO
2
incubator or another O
2
/CO
2
incubator, use the
stacking plate MCO-170SB. Refer to Table 7 on
page 77.
When the incubator is not in use
Empty the water from the humidifying pan and remove moisture from the chamber. Make sure that the
chamber is completely dry before closing the doors. Failure to do so may result in damage.
Before moving the incubator
Before moving the incubator, empty the water from the humidifying pan, disconnect the power supply plug
from the outlet, and make sure that the power supply cord will not be damaged. Failure to do so may result
in electric shock or fire.
