1. Stand the SOS on its end as shown below. Fill the syringe supplied
with oil, unscrew the cap from the fill port and screw the syringe
onto the Oil Filling Port.
2. Press the syringe plunger slowly until the level of oil in the cylinder is
just below the tip. Look closely for any air bubbles in the oil. Any that
are seen can be dislodged by a short, sharp movement of the filling
syringe and should be allowed to rise to the top of the oil.
3. When you are certain there are no air bubbles, continue pressing
the syringe plunger to fill the cylinder and the tubing until a small
amount of oil emerges from the tip of the Micropipette Holder.
