Now that the biocontainer is properly assembled, the biocontainer must be connected properly to the mixer. First
position the mixing biocontainer with retaining tank in such a way that the fitting with coupler is located
approximately under the shaft adaptor as shown below in Step 1 of 8. Adjust the vertical position of the motor by
rotating the handle of the motor positioner until the distance between the coupler and the shaft adaptor is about
50 mm or 2 inches. Hold the coupler and move it toward the shaft adaptor. Insert the hex head of the wand in the
receiving hex cavity inside the adaptor. Bring the mating surfaces of two the flanges together and secure the
flanges of the coupler and shaft adaptor against each other with the clamp as shown on the next page in Step 2 of
8. Tighten the screws on the clamp. Lastly, increase the motor height slightly up by turning the handle of the
motor positioner until noticeable biocontainer tension is developed.
