The tip ejector system consists of a soft-touch tip ejector and specially designed gearing
mechanism. To release the tip, point the pipette at suitable waste receptacle and press the
tip ejector with your thumb.
SAFETY LABEL
You can mark the pipette application your initials the calibration date, etc. on the safety
label.
Remove the clear plastic window on the edge closest to the push button (use the service
tool that comes with the pipette, or a screwdriver). Mark the adhesive label with a felt-
tipped or other pen and snap the window back in place.
SHELF HANGER
You can attach the pipette shelf hanger on a counter, pipette stand or anywhere where
you want to hang your pipette.
Clean the area where you plan to attach the shelf hanger. Apply two stickers to the
underside of the shelf hanger. Press the shelf hanger firmly into place -- on a shelf,
countertop or pipette stand. To use, hang the grippy finger rest on the shelf hanger.
Push and release the push button slowly at all times,
particularly when working with high viscosity liquids.
Never allow the push button to snap back.
Make sure that the tip is firmly attached to the tip cone.
Check for foreign particles in the tip.
Before you begin your actual pipetting work, fill and
empty the tip 2-3 times with the solution that you will be
pipetting. Hold the pipette in an upright position while aspirating liquid. The grippy should
rest on your index finger. Make sure that the tips, pipette and solution are at the same
temperature.
FORWARD TECHNIQUE
Fill a clean reagent reservoir with the liquid to be dispensed.
1 Depress the push button to the first stop.
2. Dip the tip under the surface of the liquid in the reservoir to a depth of about 1 cm
and slowly release the push button. Withdraw the tip from the liquid touching it
against the edge of the reservoir to remove excess liquid.
3. Deliver the liquid by gently depressing the push button to the first stop. After a
delay of about one second, continue to depress the push button all the way to the
second stop. This action will empty the tip.
4. Release the push button to the ready position.
If necessary, change the tip and continue pipetting.
