OPERATION
Description
The pipetting head moves both vertically and horizontally. Vertical movements
are made to fit tips and pipette liquid. Horizontal movements are made to
transfer liquids. This movement is possible only when the head is fully raised.
Two drawers can hold up to three different microplates and can be used at the
same time.
Height Adjuster
The descent of the pipetting head and the
position of the tips can be adjusted by using
three height adjusters, as shown in figure 9.
.
This will prevent the tips from touching
the bottom of the microplate and can be
adjusted for use with shallow- or deep-well
microplates.

Moving PLATEMASTER
Whether placed on the lab bench, under a fume hood,
in a cold room, or used in the field, PLATEMASTER is
completely portable. PLATEMASTER includes a locking
system to lock the head when the instrument is being
moved.
After each use of PLATEMASTER, remember to lock the
pipetting head to prepare for transport.
To lock the pipetting head, pull the black part on the
left side of PLATEMASTER, lower the head, and turn
the black part until the notch is in the slot. Let the head
slowly ride up and be locked.
To unlock the pipetting head, pull the black part and turn it. Once the pipetting head
is released, check proper movement of the device.
Never move the device without locking the pipetting head.
Damages caused by movement without locking the device will not
be covered by the warranty.
