Placing the probes of the 96AM Head (bottom of head) on any surface can damage
the probes. To protect the probes when the head is not mounted on the Bravo
Platform, place the top of the head on a clean, stable surface so that the probes are
facing upward. For storage, use the storage stand.
To uninstall the Bravo 96AM Head:
1
Put on gloves to protect your hands from potential exposure to sharp edges and
any residual contaminants.
2
Ensure that the syringes are empty as follows:
a
In the Protein Sample Prep Workbench, open the Utility Library.
b
In the System Startup/Shutdown utility, run the Startup protocol. The Startup
protocol purges any liquid left in the head, which is required for long-term
storage or conducting syringe repairs.
3
On the side of the Bravo Platform, press the power switch to the off (o) position.
4
Gently, move the Bravo head manually to position it over deck location 6, which will
provide easier access for removing the head.
