Chapter 4: Preventive Maintenance
4. If detergent was used, wipe the components with a cloth moistened
with water. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the components.
5. To replace the carrier, line up the pin on the underside of the carrier
with the slot on the carrier transport rail. Snap the two carrier rail
guides onto the rail. The pin should sit in the slot.
Cleaning the Carrier Transport Arm (Select, Select CW, and HT
Models)
For troubleshooting purposes, it may be necessary to disassemble and clean the
spring-loaded carrier transport arm that allows the Select, Select CW, and HT
models to move forward and back (along the y-axis) when washing 384-well
plates.
If reagent has spilled and dried on the stainless steel shaft of the arm, it may
interfere with carrier movement. Cleaning the arm will resolve the problem.

reassembling the transport arm.
