WARNING
Once a day or after 20 cycles, the rotor tie-down screw must be loosened
by some turns, and the rotor must be lifted and fastened again. This
ensures a proper connection between the rotor and the motor shaft.
CAUTION
When using rotors for microtiter plate formats:
Ensure that the plate holders are inserted together with the plates into the
buckets.
• The lid screw serves for the fastening of the lid onto the rotor only, not
for the fastening of the rotor onto the motor shaft.
• Follow the safety instructions and hazard warnings (see chapter 3 -
"
Safety
")!
