Check all J2 series rotors for drive pins, and do not use rotors without
drive pins in the Avanti J. To check for drive pins, hold the rotor up or
turn it on its side and look into the drive hole. If you do not see metal
pins in the hole, do not use the rotor in the Avanti J. Call your local
Beckman Coulter office for information on returning the rotor to the
factory for upgrading.
In Avanti J series centrifuges, the JA-18 rotor must be run with the
lid attached. See the JA-18 rotor manual (document J-TB-035) for
complete rotor usage instructions.
