USER’S GUIDE
Liquids of high density, vapor
pressure, or viscosity are best
pipetted by the MICROMAN
positive displacement pipette.
P2L and P10L models are delivered with the adapter in
place, positioned in the longer slot, and ready to use
DL10 tips. When D10 tips (which are shorter) are used, the
adapter must be repositioned in the shorter slot as follows:
1.
Pull the adapter down from the stainless steel tip
ejector.
2. Turn the adapter 180°.
3. Refit the adapter so that the end of the stainless steel
tip ejector engages the shorter slot of the adapter.
For the F1L, F2L, F5L, F10L, P2L, and P10L models
equipped with a plastic tip ejector
, a tip ejector extension is
supplied to fit with D10 tips (short tips).
To fit a tip ejector extension:
1.
Slide the extension over the tip holder.
2. Push the extension firmly onto the end of the tip ejector
until it clicks into place.
Both dual-position adapter
and tip ejector extension
are autoclavable.

Ejector spacer for PIPETMAN L Multichannel 10 µL
According to the tip used, D10 or DL10, you might have to
exchange the ejector spacer; the broad one is dedicated to
D10, and the small one is dedicated to DL10:
•
Remove the tip ejector, keep both ejector locks
depressed; pull the tip ejector down.
•
Gently press the tabs from the ejector spacer, and
remove it from the tip ejector.
•
Insert the alternative ejector spacer and click it to the
tip ejector.
•
To refit the tip ejector, gently re-insert the tip ejector
vertically into the rails of the ejector support.
Pre-Rinse the Tips
Some liquids (e.g., protein-containing solutions and organic solvents) can leave a film of liquid on the
inside wall of the tip; pre-rinse the tip to minimize any errors that may be related to this phenomenon.
Pre-rinsing consists of aspirating the first volume of liquid and then dispensing it to waste. Tips will not fall
off nor will they have to be manually positioned.
Subsequent volumes that you pipette will have levels of accuracy and precision within specifications.
