Helpful Hints

In order to keep your liquid handler at peak performance, Gilson recommends that you do the following:

•Change or clean the tubing regularly to maintain maximum performance.

•Flush the probe housings and rinse stations daily with distilled or deionized water. On a weekly basis, flush with a 10% solution of bleach or weak detergent.

•Check periodically to ensure that all fittings are tight.

•Wipe up all spills immediately.

•Cold fluids may cause leakage; warm fluids to room temperature before running them through the system.

•Lubricate the rods on the Z-arm at least once every six months (see page 4-7).
