Using the lift points in the Chassis, lift the Microlab
®
STAR off the pallet and put it on
the desired table or workbench in the laboratory. (Refer to section 4.2.1 Workplace
environment on page 4-4 when deciding where it should go.)
Attention: Given the weight of the instrument it will take at least 4 people(!) to lift it.
After placing the Instrument in its final position on the workbench or table, check and
(if necessary) adjust the feet of the Instrument so that it stands evenly.
It is recommended that you check the Channels’ cable connections.
With the Pipetting Arm uncovered (see section 7.4.3 Pipetting Arm on page 7-14),
check the cable connections on the Pipetting Arm and Pipetting Channels visually
and by hand in case they have become loose during shipment. Check the Y-Motor
and communication Cable connection on each Channel for proper fit.
Cover the Pipetting Arm, mount Side Panels, place Spillage Trays, Tip-Waste
station and Loading Trays

onto the Instrument.
Attach protective front and side shields. ML STAR IVD Instruments have an
additional shield toput in place at the back of the instrument.
Attention: Side Panels must be flush with the outer edges of Instrument. After
mounting, check to ensure there is collision-free Pipetting Arm movement.
Carefully move the Pipetting Arm by Hand!
