2. 3. Transporting
CAUTION Physical harm caused by dropping the shaker. Always lift the shaker from
both sides. Never lift the shaker by its front panel or an installed platform. Never lift
a temperature controlled shaker by the handle of the transparent hood.
CAUTION Safe use of the shaker is impaired by water condensing inside the
casing. This occurs when the shaker is moved from a cooler to a warmer location
with more humid air—for example, from a storage area or from the haulage truck to
the lab room. Let the equipment dry out for at least 2 h before operating.
NOTICE With open air shaker models, always remove the platform, its load and
all accessories before moving the shaker. If you do not remove the platform,
you might damage the platform mounting plate or the shaking mechanism.
With temperature controlled shakers, it suffices to remove the load from the
platform.
NOTICE Risk of impact damage to the unit. Transport the shaker in an upright
position and, if possible, in its original packaging.
