Instructions for Use

Pipetting

To aspirate
1. Carefully hold the pipette and insert it securely into the
polypropylene nosecone (10) and silicone holder (9).
2. Select mode of operation–High, Low, for blow-out pipettes. 'G' for 'to
deliver' (3).
3. Depress upper aspirate trigger (1) (The harder the pipetting triggers
are pressed the faster the aspiration).
To dispense
1. In BLOW-OUT mode, (mode switch on high or low) depress the lower
trigger (2) (The harder the pipetting triggers are pressed, the faster
the dispense).
2. If 'G' gravity mode is chosen, the upper aspirate trigger automatically
operates at low speed while the lower trigger opens the pipette to
atmosphere, allowing liquid to run out.

WARNING!
Please ensure that no liquid enters the instrument. The Powerpette Plus
should never be used without the filter (8). The filter also prevents liquid
from entering the instrument. Where liquid has entered please clean
and/or replace filter.
Note
When the meniscus level has been reached liquid should not drip out of
the pipette. If the pipette does drip, check that the adaptor assembly (7)
and filter (8) are correctly assembled and the pipette is properly located
into the silicone pipette holder (9).
