Placing a Basket in the Loading Station
1. Confirm that the LOAD lamp on the right side of the
control panel is on. While the lamp is not on, baskets
cannot be placed.
2. Open the loading station access door, grab the
handle, and then slide out the loading station receiver.
If the loading station lid is on, remove the lid.
3. Confirm that the loading station is filled with solvent to
the specified level (approximately 1.5 L). If there is no
solvent or when the solvent level is not sufficient, add
solvent.
4. Place the basket in the loading station so that the “UP
SIDE” marks on the basket and basket adapter face
the right side of the loading station. When placing the
basket, be careful not to tilt the basket adapter. If the
basket adapter is tilted, the arm may not be able to
pick up the basket. The loading station can hold up to
3 slide baskets (Figure 4-J).

Basket Loading
Place the slide in the basket by making sure
the tissue side of the slide is facing the same
direction as the “UP SIDE” marks (right
side). If the slide is set upside down, the
cover glass will be coverslipped on the
opposite side where tissues are not
mounted, and consequently the tissues may
sustain significant damage.
