with the rib line closest to counter

When to replace Nozzles:
If a nozzle is leaking or does not aspirate, a complete nozzle can be replaced.
When to replace Nozzle Filters:
Nozzle filters are made of a cellulose material which prevents liquid from
entering the interior of the pipette. If the filter becomes wet, the channel will
not aspirate or dispense until the filter is replaced.
When to replace Nozzle Seals:
Nozzle seals may need to be replaced when a channel leaks during pipetting,
or the seal is visibly worn or torn.
1. Push the ejector slide in until it clicks to
fully expose the pipette’s nozzles.
(For 0.5-20µL models, see note on reverse)
2. Remove the affected nozzle(s) by placing
the rubber tubing provided onto nozzle,
and unscrew it in a counterclockwise
direction.
3. Place rubber tubing back onto a new or
reconditioned nozzle, and screw the
nozzle onto the pipette in a clockwise
direction. Firmly tighten and remove
tubing from nozzle.
