DKSH LabPRO 2ml User Manual page 15

For the Multichannel models (8X - 12X):
Fit Pipette tips.

Set the pipette to the maximum volume given in the

specifications, and pre-rinse.
Aspirate the set volume from a reagent reservoir of

distilled water.
Maintain the pipette in the vertical position and wait

for 20 seconds; fluid level in tips should remain con-
stant.
If a water droplet appears at the end of the tip, there

is a leak.
If you see no droplet, for volumes below 200 µL, re-

immerse the tip below the surface of water.
The water level inside the tip should remain constant;

if the level goes down there is a leak.
12A - MAINTENANCE FOR THE SINGLE
CHANNEL MODELS ONLY
Routine maintenance will help to keep your pipette in
good condition, ensuring a continued high level of per-
formance.
Maintenance is limited to:
• Cleaning or sterilization (see Chapter 13 - Cleaning
and Sterilization).
• Replacing spare parts.
• Greasing the piston assembly.
Lubricant tube 1 g is available under the reference
FE07066
2µl and 10µl Single channel models should not be
disassembled, so you may only replace the push-
button, tip-ejector and its adapter.
With these pipettes if the tip-holder is damaged, the
piston may also be damaged.
