No. H5500-02) Power supply Instruction manual 6.0 Installation 6.1 Unpacking Before starting the installation, carefully examine the rotator. Open the box and carefully remove the padding. Check to see that the rotator has not been damaged during transportation. Keep the packing material until you are sure the rotator works properly. Make sure that all of the accessories are included. Carefully lift the unit from the box. Be sure the following information is included on the label located on the bottom of the unit: Serial number, product number, electrical rating. Check that the power cord has the correct configuration that matches the outlet according to your local standards. NOTE: If any damage occurred during transportation, contact your carrier immediately. 6.2 Installation Place the rotator on a stable, flat surface. Connect the plug into the grounded wall socket. Avoid sockets where powerful electric motors, refrigerators, and similar devices are also connected. Use the On/Off switch to control the rotator. Be careful when you plug the cord into the grounded wall socket. Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Do not pull the plug by the cord. 7.0 Loading the Rotisserie The rotisserie supplied with the unit is designed to hold standard 1.5 or 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes. There are two other rotisseries available separately for different size tubes. Each rotisserie consists of a rotisserie plate with bar keys for placement into the apparatus and a two piece rotisserie rod with bar key on either end. Install the rotisserie rod by screwing the two elements together through the hole in the center of the rotisserie plate. Insert the tubes into the tube holders. Mount the rotisserie in the apparatus in either the vertical position using the rotisserie rod, or the horizontal position using the bar keys on the plate. The side opposite to the driving mechanism is flexible to allow inserting the rotisserie without tools. Insert the bar key on the rotisserie rod or plate into the drive mechanism. The other end of the rotisserie is suspended in the bushing located in the opposite side of the unit. Be sure to distribute tubes evenly across the rotisserie carrier to achieve smooth rotating motion. 2 | LABNET MINI LABROLLER ROTATOR Tumbling Mixing Plates To create a tumbling motion, load the tubes and mount the rotisserie so the tubes are held in a vertical position. Then, rest the unit on its end making sure that it is supported by the black rubber side legs. The unit can be rested on either end. Setting the unit on the end with the power switch will create more vigorous tumbling motion than when it is rested on the opposite end. Any of the rotisseries can be used for mixing in microplates. Remove the rotisserie rod if it is installed. Seal the microplates completely to avoid leakage. Make sure the microplate lines up with the locking dimples. Fasten the plate (or plates) with rubber bands or small bungee cords (not supplied with the unit). Maximum of two deep well plates can be mixed at a time. For all other types of motion, two plates should be placed on the rotisserie for proper balance. 8.0 Cleaning and Maintenance No routine maintenance or lubrication is required. Keeping the rotator clean will the help to maintain it in proper operating condition. 8.1 Cleaning The outside housing can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth when needed. NOTE: Before cleaning the rotator, always unplug the power cord. Do not use any aggressive or abrasive cleaners (acetone, nitro, polish, etc.). This may permanently damage the rotator finish. 9.0 Troubleshooting Guide Be sure to disconnect the rotator from the main power source immediately in case of any signs of malfunction. Problem Rotator does not start Solution Check the power connection. Check if the rotisserie is properly inserted into the drive mechanism. Call for service. Should you have a question about the operation of the Labnet Mini LabRollerTM Rotator or if service is required, contact Corning Customer Service. Do not send in a unit for service without first calling to obtain a repair authorization number. Should the unit require return for service, it should be properly packed to avoid damage. Any damage resulting from improper packaging shall be the responsibility of the user. 10.0 Accessories Cat.
