About this topic
This topic describes how to retract and release the tip box stripper pins on a
disposable-tip pipette head. Read this topic if you are using the pipette head to
pipette in single rows.
Tip box stripper pins described
The disposable-tip pipette heads have four stripper pins that prevent the tip box
from raising off the deck when tips are being applied.
However, you can retract the stripper pins to perform a task where the pins will
interfere. For example, if you are using a 96ST pipette head in a 384-tip box,
retracting the stripper pins can help prevent tips from touching other tips during a
tips-on task.
