Caution
Do not spray cleaning solutions directly onto the centrifuge bowl or housing.
Overspray can reach the motor bearings or internal circuitry, causing harm to the
electronics.
Before using any cleaning or decontamination methods other than those
recommended by the manufacturer, users should check with the manufacturer that
the proposed method will not damage the equipment.
Caution
During operation maintain a 30 cm (12 inch) clearance around the centrifuge. The
clearance must be free from obstruction and away from the edge of the surface that
the centrifuge is on.
Caution
Follow Universal Precautions with all biological specimens, regardless of whether the
specimen is known to contain an infectious agent. (See References )
Caution
Use the same size and style tubes in opposite positions. Balance liquid in tubes to
within 0.5mL. If glass tubes are used to balance rotor load, replace the glass balance
tube every ten cycles to prevent possible breakage caused by the repeated stress of
centrifugation. Replace the tube inserts immediately if a tube breaks during
centrifugation.
Caution
Inspect rotor on a routine basis. Rotor lifespan depends on usage. Inspect rotor for
cracks and replace the rotor immediately when any crack or visible wear occurs.
Caution
Never operate the centrifuge without the rotor properly mounted and the locking nut
tightened. Failure to install and secure the rotor correctly can damage the centrifuge.
Caution
Running the centrifuge repeatedly with an unbalanced load condition can cause
excessive vibrations and premature equipment failure.
