• This instrument contains batteries. Do not mix with the solid waste stream.
Spent batteries should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous
materials handler.
• Airflow can also be blocked by temporarily kinking the hose or covering the end of
the rigid tube.
• We recommend that you perform a block test once the Sampler is activated.
• If you reactivate the Sampler within a 30-minute period, it will resume normal
operation (i.e., the Sampler will not enter calibration).
• Once the Low Battery Alarm has been activated you have approximately 20
minutes before the Sampler turns off.
• To initiate a calibration, confirm the Sampler is on then press C and hold for
6 seconds. The Sampler beeps, then deactivates. The Sampler enters calibration
mode the next time it is activated.
• Do not tighten the rear assembly screws greater than 3.0 in-lb
