Leica CV5030
Cause
The gripper of the T5015
Transfer Station is blocked
in its up/down movement
(Z-axis).
The cover slip sensor is
stuck or defective.
The reference values of the
instrument are faulty.
Possible cause
Air bubbles have
developed in the
coverslip mountant
from filling the
coverslip mountant
bottle.
Height of the
dispenser needle is
set incorrectly.
The dispenser needle
is partially clogged
by glued-on material
or otherwise blocked.
Malfunctions and Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Remove the cause of the blockage (specimen
slide holder) and inspect the gripper of the
TS5015. Remove empty specimen slide holders
from the discharge chute of the transfer
station. Switch the instrument off and on.
Proceed further as described in
5.3 Switching the instrument on or
any removed specimen slide holders into the
coverslipper and have them coverslipped (thus
outside of the workstation operation).
Clean the Pick & Place module and the cover
slip sensor using a lint-free cloth soaked
in compatible solvent as described in
(→ p. 85 – 7.5.10 Cover slip
Contact Leica Service.
Remedy
Observe the coverslip mountant's idle time of approx. 6 to 12
hours after filling the mountant bottle.
Make sure that the coverslip mountant bottle is filled
carefully.
Before the instrument is restarted, check whether the
coverslip mountant is moved out of the dispenser needle
during the priming cycle without bubbles.
At the same time there must not be any more air bubbles in
the hose of the dispenser group (apply coverslip mountant on
an empty specimen slide to check).
Set the needle height correctly
the needle
height). Check the dispenser needle to see if it is
clogged by glued-on material or bent.
1. Clean the dispenser needle:
2. Remove the needle from the dispenser and leave it in a
compatible solvent overnight.
3. To resume working on the instrument, insert a new
needle of the same size and carry out a sufficiently long
priming cycle before the next coverslipping operation.
4. When reinserting the dispenser needle, always check
the needle height.
5. Check the dispenser needle cleaner:
6. Fill this daily with sufficient solvent. Replace the brush
of the dispenser needle cleaner if it has glued-on
material and/or hardening.
