steps carefully and thoroughly:
Fig. 45
Check the suction cups daily for small glass
shards and splinters (caused by broken glass).
Carefully wipe the suction cups using
a cloth soaked in xylene—do not
soak the suction cups in xylene.
Replace damaged or deformed suction cups (88).
To do so, remove the old suction cup (by pulling it
downward, Fig. 44) and replace it with a new one.
• The cleaning fluid in the container must be
replaced daily (quantity: approx. 5.5 ml).
For filling, use the pipette provided (item 5 in
Fig. 12).
• Every day, remove the used brush and care-
fully clean off clinging coverslipping mountant.
Only brushes that have been cleaned may be
used.
• The container of the brush holder should be
cleaned weekly to remove deposits of dis-
solved coverslipping mountant.
