Remove/Change Wash Manifold
To clean or replace the wash manifold:
1. Run the system "dry” to remove any fluid: connect an empty supply bottle and
run a prime protocol until the tubing is empty.
2. Turn off the instrument, disconnect the power cable, and remove the mist
shield.
3. Release the thumbscrews that secure the manifold(s) in place.
n Dual manifolds: Hold the two manifolds together as a single unit when
removing and reinstalling.
4. Carefully slide the manifold(s) and end plates off their rails.
n DO NOT AUTOCLAVE the manifold!
Reverse these steps to reinstall the manifold. Be sure to correctly position the
manifold(s) on the rails; they only fit one way: the side with the recessed channel
openings faces the washer. Make sure there are no gaps between the manifold and
the washer.
