● Do not pinch the drain hose or allow it to slacken.
Water will not be drained properly and overflow from the instrument.
● Set the solution station (tray) in the correct location.
If not, the tissues may not be soaked in the solution and staining problems may occur.
● Store the slides evenly in the basket.
If the slides are stored unevenly, basket movements are affected during the staining operation.
● Before staining is started, confirm that the end station has been set.
If the end station is not set, the basket cannot be put down and will remain gripped. If the next basket
is processed in this condition, the baskets may collide with each other and the tissues may be
damaged.
● Do not touch the moving arm.
The arm should stop automatically when the cover is opened, but it may continue to operate if a
series of operations is still ongoing. Touching the moving arm may result in injury. If you must move
the arm by hand, confirm that the arm has stopped completely and then move the arm with due
caution by following the onscreen messages on the display.
● Do not open the cover or door unless necessary.
Open the cover or door only when required by the operations explained in this manual. If the cover or
door remains open for a long period of time, organic gas may be released from the instrument. Also,
opening the cover or door during staining stops the arm, which may cause the tissues to dry up or
extend the staining time and eventually affect the stained quality of tissues.
● Be careful not to pinch your hand when opening/closing the cover or door.
Be careful not to pinch your hand between the fixed part and moving part of the cover or door or
between the cover and door.
● Do not move the instrument while operating. Move the instrument after removing all solution
bottles, paraffin containers and other components carrying liquid inside.
Moving the instrument while operating may cause the solution or paraffin to leak. Accident or failure
may also occur.
● If the straining process is suspended, the process may be negatively affected depending on
the situation. Remember to resume operation.
Prolonged suspension may negatively affect the stain process. Keep the suspension time to the
minimum.
● When the expiration date of the current solution is passed, a message appears to urge
exchanging the solution. Exchange the solution properly in order to maintain the staining
quality.
● The safety data sheet of each solution used can be obtained from the supplier/manufacturer of
the solution. You can also download it from the website of respective supplier/manufacturer of
the solution.
● Do not insert a metal bar or other metal object into the hot air outlet of any drying station or
use a metal product to reset an over temperature protector.
Metal contact may cause electric shock.
