8- Accessories - DKSH LabPRO 2ml User Manual

Each new tip should be pre-rinsed with the liquid to

be pipetted.
Liquid should never enter the tip-holder; to prevent

this:
• press and release the push-button slowly and
smoothly,
• never turn the pipette upside down,
• never lay the pipette on its side when there is liquid
in the tip.
If you use the same tip with a higher volume, pre-

rinse the tip.
For volatile solvents you should saturate the air-

cushion of your pipette by aspirating and dispensing
the solvent repeatedly before aspirating the sample.
When the pipetted liquid is not at room tempera-

ture, pre-rinse the tip several times before use.
You may remove the tip-ejector (see chapter 12 -

Maintenance) to aspirate from very narrow tubes.
After pipetting acids or other corrosive liquids that

emit vapors, remove the tip-ejector, the tip-holder,
rinse, dry and lubricate the piston (see chapter 12 -
Maintenance).
Do not pipette liquids having temperatures above

70°C or below 4°C. The pipette can be used between
+4°C and +40°C but the specifications may vary ac-
cording to the temperature (refer to the ISO8655-2
standard for conditions of use).
/ Pipettes should be held in the vertical position.

To avoid the possibility of liquid running back into the
pipette, store the pipette vertically.
