Remove the upper collar from the collar holder by grasping the lines above and below the collar and pulling
the lines downward.

Gently pull the channel from the filler.

Push in the locking pin on the centrifuge collar holder, and remove the collar from the holder by grasping
the tubes above the collar and pulling upward.
7
Push the filler latch pin toward the center of the centrifuge, and raise the filler latch.
8
Fold the channel in half, and pull the channel through the loading port and out of the centrifuge chamber.
9
Lower the filler latch.
10
Close the centrifuge door.
11
Remove the lines from the fluid detectors.

Note:
If you do not perform rinseback, the channel of the tubing set will be full of fluid when you unload the set. After you
raise the cassette, empty the channel by putting the cassette and the bags at a level below the channel, allowing the fluid in
the channel to drain into the vent bag.
