safety instructions should be read and understood before installation, operation,
maintenance, or repair of this centrifuge. When you see the symbol on other pages, pay
special attention to the safety information presented. Observance of safety precautions
will also help to avoid actions that could damage or adversely affect the performance of the

Safety During Installation and/or Maintenance
The centrifuges X-12/R weighs 121 kg ( 267 lb), X-15R weighs 128 kg (283). Do not attempt to
lift or move it without assistance.
Any servicing of this equipment that requires removal of any covers can expose parts that
involve the risk of electric shock or personal injury. Make sure that the power switch is off
and the centrifuge is disconnected from the main power source, and refer such servicing to
qualified personnel.
Do not replace any centrifuge components with parts not specified for use on this instrument.
Electrical Safety
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment uses a three-wire electrical cord and
plug to connect the centrifuge to earth-ground. To preserve this safety feature:
• Make sure that the matching wall outlet receptacle is properly wired and earth-grounded.
Check that the line voltage agrees with the voltage listed on the name-rating plate affixed to
the
centrifuge.
• Never use a three-to-two wire plug adapter.
• Never use a two-wire extension cord or a two-wire non-grounding type of multiple-outlet
receptacle strip.
Do not place containers holding liquid on or near the chamber door. If they spill, liquid
may get into the centrifuge and damage electrical or mechanical components
.
Safety Against Risk of Fire
This centrifuge is not designed for use with materials capable of developing flammable or
explosive vapors. Do not centrifuge such materials (such as chloroform or ethyl alcohol)
