5.14 Manual pipetting of liquid – Man selection dial setting
In the Manual Pipetting (Man) mode, the pipette is used like a manual dispenser. The
maximum aspiration volume can be limited if required. Aspiration can be stopped or
continued, or the direction can be changed, as often as required.
Prerequisites
• The pipette is switched on.
• The Manual Pipetting (Man) operating mode has been selected.
• The parameters have been set.
• The pipette tip has been attached.
1. To aspirate or dispense liquid, press the rocker up or hold it pressed down. The piston
movement stops when the rocker is released.
The display shows the liquid volume in the pipette tip.
2. If the piston is in the basic position, you can trigger the blow-out (Blow) any time by
pressing the rocker down.
If you keep the rocker pressed during the blow-out (Blow), the piston moves to the
lowest position and remains there until the rocker is released.
