Upon receiving the Talboys Orbital/Microplate Shaker, check to ensure that no
damage has occurred during shipment. It is important that any damage that occurred
in transport is detected at the time of unpacking. If you do find such damage the carrier
must be notified immediately.
After unpacking, place the Orbital/Microplate Shaker on a level bench or table,
away from explosive vapors. Secure to an immovable work surface by pressing down
on the four (4) corners of the unit, creating a strong suction to the work surface (do
not place on a bench mat). Ensure that the surface on which the unit is placed will
withstand typical heat produced by the unit. Always place the unit on a sturdy work
surface.
The Orbital/Microplate Shaker is supplied with a power cord that is inserted into
the IEC connector on the back of the unit first, then it can be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet. The 120V unit plugs into a 120 volt, 50/60 Hz source. The 230V unit
plugs into a 230 volt, 50/60 Hz source.
