1.0 Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing your Labnet Orbit™ LS Low Speed Orbital Shaker. Large orbit and low
speed make the Orbit LS useful for staining and destaining gels, washing blots and general mixing.
The shaker is supplied with a 30 x 30 cm stainless steel flat platform and non-slip rubber mat to
keep plates, dishes and other sample containers in place. Safe for use in temperature controlled
environments, the small profile of this shaker makes it ideal for use in incubators such as the Labnet
311 and 611 series.
