Safety Precautions

For safe and correct use of this instrument, it is recommended that both operating and service personnel follow the instructions contained in this guide when installing, cleaning, and maintaining this instrument.

Because the probes installed on the Z-arm may contain a dangerous substance, use the safety shield included with the instrument and do not interfere in the work area of the instrument until the liquid handler has completed its procedures. If dangerous liquids are used, adequate protection such as proper ventilation, safety glasses, etc., should be used.

Always switch the power to off when making adjustments to the liquid handler. The potential exists for bodily harm if you interfere with the work area of the instrument while it is running.
