cover by setting switch A (SPEED/TIME/COVER) to COVER position.
Loosen the three knobs that secure the spoke plate by turning the knobs counter-

Using the rotation knob, rotate the spoke plate clockwise to expose the sample cav-
ities.
WARNING: Before inserting sample tubes, always make sure that their screw
caps are tight.
Load sample tubes into the sample holder. Whenever possible, position the tubes
symmetrically. The FastPrep

FastPrep ® kits and reagents. These can be purchased from Qbiogene at 800-424-

Use of non-approved reagents may result in damage to the FastPrep

leakage of content and instrument contamination. Also, unapproved reagents may
cause sample tubes to burst in downstream processing.
