6. Remove Accessories Before Moving: All tube holders, samples,
and caps must be removed from the rotor chamber before
transporting or storing the centrifuge to prevent damage and
injury.
CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
To prolong the life of the centrifuge cleaning and disinfection is
recommended every six months, or whenever there is a spillage or tube
breakage. Contaminants must be removed immediately, or corrosion and
premature degradation of components can occur.
1. Unplug the centrifuge before cleaning.
2. Apply cleaning solutions with a towel or cloth. Do not submerge
the centrifuge in water or other cleaning solutions as this will
cause damage and void the warranty.
3. ONLY isopropyl alcohol, soap and water, or a 10% (5500 PPM)
bleach solution should be used for cleaning and disinfection of
the centrifuge and accessories.
4. All surfaces must be dried immediately after cleaning and
disinfecting.
5. TBQ Germicidal products shall not be used, as they will cause
damage to the centrifuge and void the warranty.
6. The use of fully/partially halogenated hydrocarbons, ketones,
esters, ethers, benzyls, ethyl benzenes, and all other chemicals
not prescribed by the manufacturer shall not be used as they
may cause damage to the rotor chamber, rotor, tube holders,
accessories and centrifuge exterior and void the warranty.
7. It may be necessary to remove the rotor and clean the rotor
chamber. Follow the instructions on page 8 to remove and
reinstall the rotor.

SETUP LOCATION
1. Unpack the centrifuge and verify that all of the supplied
equipment is present.
2. Choose a setup location which meets the following criteria:
a. A clearance height of 20” (50.8cm) is required to open the
lid.
b. The clearance envelope is the space around the centrifuge
which is required for safety. Choose a setup location which
will allow for a clearance envelope of at least 24” x 24”,
(with the centrifuge at the center). No person or hazardous
material shall be permitted in the clearance envelope during
operation. The operator time within the envelope shall be
limited to the time necessary for loading, unloading and
centrifuge operation only.
c. Proper ventilation is necessary to prevent the overheating of
samples as well as premature failure of the centrifuge.
Choose an area which will allow unencumbered air flow.
d. The centrifuge is designed to secure to the operating surface
by four suction feet. No adjustment is necessary for leveling
the centrifuge, however, the surface should be flat and level.
e. Be sure the outlet is always within reach as the line cord is
the means of emergency disconnection!
