needed. The sort block door must be closed in order to open the collection
chamber door.
Remove the tube holder, if one is installed, and tilt the splash shield to
insert it into the slotted fittings below the sort aspirator drawer. Push the
splash shield all the way in.
2 Click the Access Stage button to bring the ACDU stage to the front.
Any cytometer surface that comes in contact with biological specimens can
