SET UP AND BASIC OPERATION
The HydroTech Vacuum Pump is shipped fully assembled. To use the pump, simply fill the reservoir with
water and attach the vacuum tubing from the gel dryer to the HydroTech's inlet port.

2.1 UNPACKING

Carefully inspect the shipping carton for any damage which may have occurred in shipping. Severe damage
to a carton may indicate damage to its contents. If you suspect that the contents have been damaged,
immediately file a claim with the carrier in accordance with their instructions before contacting Bio-Rad
Laboratories.
Cut the shipping straps and open the top flaps of the shipping box. Remove the foam inserts, and lift the
top portion of the shipping box over the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump should now be fully accessible
and can be easily removed from the bottom box.
Check the contents of the box against the supplied packing list. Remove the plastic bag from the unit and
inspect the unit for external damage. If any part is missing or damaged, contact Bio-Rad Laboratories
immediately.
