Release the tension on the dispense cassette
Important information about dispense cassettes!
When not in use, BioTek recommends releasing the tension on the cassette. This
practice extends its life, preserving the tubing’s integrity.
To release the tension:
1. Open the Pump Cover.
2. Pull out the Cassette Rest.
3. Release the spring-loaded latch that holds in place the Tube Tensioner
attached to the pump’s stainless steel plate. It will rest against the cassette
rest.
