5.3. Unpacking
The magnetic mixer is shipped in a wooden crate with foam insets to protect the unit during
transport. Make sure to store the tool box in the vicinity of the drive unit. The crate should be
retained in the event that the parts have to be shipped in the future. Remove any foam and
protective packaging from the drive unit before first use.
6. Dolly – Tank Assembly
In case the drive unit is used in combination with a plastic tank on dolly, the following
procedure(s) should be used for installation of the tank on the dolly. If using a stainless steel tank,
go to section 7.
6.1. Installation of Tank on Dolly
1. Both the dolly and tank have holes for drive unit coupling. Insert the drive/biocontainer
interface into this hole from below and apply the o-ring to secure as shown in Figure 8. It
is not necessary to remove or replace the interface after installation (i.e. after mixing or
between batches).

2. Position the plastic tank on the dolly. The bottom of the tank has two holes: a small hole
for the biocontainer drain and a larger hole for the drive head. Line up the larger hole with
the drive port on the dolly. The tank hole should locate around the interface.
3. Tanks up to and including 350 L use a centrally located impeller and therefore use the
central port dolly configuration. The 500 L tanks use single-use systems with an off-center
impeller and therefore use the off-center port dolly configuration. See procedure below for
changing the dolly port configuration.
