889 IC Sample Center Basic
CAUTION
Leaks in tubing and capillary connections are a safety risk. Tighten all
connections well by hand. Avoid applying excessive force to tubing con-
nections. Damaged tubing ends lead to leakage. Appropriate tools can
be used to loosen connections.
Check the connections regularly for leakage. If the instrument is used
mainly in unattended operation, then weekly inspections are manda-
tory.
WARNING
Wear protective glasses and working clothes suitable for laboratory
work while operating the 889 IC Sample Center Basic. It is also advisa-
ble to wear gloves when caustic liquids are used or in situations where
glass vessels could break.
WARNING
Personnel may not reach into the working area of the instrument while
operations are running!
A considerable risk of injury exists for the user.
WARNING
In the event of a possible jamming of a drive, the power plug must be
pulled out of the socket immediately. Do not attempt to free jammed
sample vessels or other parts while the instrument is switched on. Jam-
ming can only be cleared when the instrument is in a de-energized
state; this action is generally associated with a considerable risk of
injury.
