Capacity: 8 x1.5/2.0ml
32 x 0.2ml or 4 x PCR strips
Dimensions: 4.5 (W) x 5.9 (D) x 4.5 (H) in.
11.4 (W) x 15 (D) x 11.4(H) cm
Electrical: 120V to 240V, 50-60 Hz

Installation:
Place the MiniMouse II™ on a flat and level
surface nearby an electrical outlet. It should not
be near a heat source or in direct sunlight.
Rotor Exchange:
The MiniMouse II™ includes a second rotor that is
designed for holding PCR tubes (0.2ml) and PCR
strips (8 position). The rotor is conveniently
stored in a compartment on the bottom of the
centrifuge. To access this rotor, turn the
machine upside down and remove it from the
compartment.
- Removing the Rotor from the
motor shaft:
The new Clik-n-Lok rotor attachment
system allows for instant exchange of
rotors. To remove a rotor, simply pull it
upwards, off the shaft. (NO TOOL IS
REQUIRED.)
- Attaching the Rotor to the motor
shaft: Place the rotor on the motor
shaft and press down until the rotor
comes to a stop. The rotor is now
secured. (NOT TOOL IS REQUIRED)
Operation:
- Attach the power cord and place the power
switch into the on “-” position.
- Open the lid and load your samples into the
rotor. Always ensure a balanced load
(Please see the following section, Loading
the Rotor, for details.)
- Close the lid, the rotor quickly accelerates
to the maximum speed of 6200 rpm.
- When the desired run time is completed,
push on the lid button to open the lid, the
rotor quickly brakes to a stop and the
samples can be retrieved.
NEVER Attempt: to remove samples until
the rotor has come to a complete stop.
Loading the Rotor:
To ensure safe operation and long life of the
instrument, samples must always be loaded into
the rotor in a balanced fashion.
Tubes and strips must always be loaded
symmetrically across from one another and
contain the same volume of liquid. See below:
