How To Operate HG-200 GenoLyte

▪
Set up the homogenizer in a well ventilated,
unconfined space. The unit should be operated on
a flat, hard, stable benchtop due to the vigorous
motion and vibration generated during operation.
▪
Tilt the cabinet, and remove the two bolts on the
bottom. They hold the floating baseplate to the
cabinet for shipping.
▪
Remove the foam protector around the clamp
assembly inside the unit before attaching the vial
holder or turning the unit on.
Step 1. Connect the power supply to the back of unit. Power On the GenoLyte Homogenizer.
Upon start-up, Cole-Parmer will appear briefly on the display screen followed by RATE and
TIME.
Step 2. Lift the Lid by the Lid Handle. Place a vial holder in the clamp. Add sample loaded vials to the
holder. Close the clamp arm by pushing it down then pressing the locking tab inwards until it clasps
the clamp arm. Stretch the safety ring around the clamp arm knob to secure the vials in holder. To
remove vials (or holder), unclasp the safety ring and locking tab from the clamp arm and extend the
arm to the open position.
Step 3. Close the lid.
