TSU's should be stored at room temperature prior to use out of direct sunlight.
Care should be taken not to expose the unused product to extremes of heat or cold prior to sampling.
HOW TO USE THE ALLFLEX TISSUE APPLICATOR
To take a tissue sample using the Allflex TSU,
the following tools are needed:
1. An Allflex tissue applicator
2. Allflex tissue sample
A. LOADING THE ALLFLEX
TISSUE APPLICATOR
1 Remove a TSU unit from
the packaging. TSU's should
be assembled as one piece:
if they have come apart,
reassemble.
3 Insert the TSU into
the tissue applicator
as shown below.
5 Squeeze the applicator
handles together, guiding the
TSU tip into place if necessary.
You will feel a "Locking" action
once properly placed. When
fully seated the gun bolt will
rest flush against the white
metal cutter.
7 The applicator is now loaded and ready to take a sample.
All parts are for one use only; do not re-use metal cutters.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
Animals should be restrained during sampling
(For example, by using a head gate).
2 Ensure the tube retainer
at the base of the applicator
gun is open. Open the TSU
retention ring.
4 After insertion of the TSU
close the retention ring to
lock the tube.
6 Release the handle and
remove the red plastic
clip by pulling it outward.
TAKE CARE NOT TO CUT
FINGER ON THE METAL
CUTTER-IT IS VERY SHARP.
