Paraffin collection tray (8)
Two indirectly-heated paraffin collection trays
for excess paraffin are located under the work
surface.
The paraffin collection tray must be
emptied daily. To prevent contami-
nation, do not reuse paraffin collect-
ed in this tray.
If the instrument is operated without
the paraffin collection trays there is
risk of burning.
Embedding mold tray and cassette tray (16)
Depending on the preferred working direc-
tion, the two heated instrument trays (6, 7)
can be used for embedding molds or cas-
settes. The temperature is adjustable between
55 °C and 70 °C.
A removable tray (16) for cassettes or embed-
ding molds can be placed in each instrument
tray.
Each receptacle can hold approx. 100 cas-
settes or approx. 50 molds.
A lid (17) is provided for each of the trays (16)
to prevent loss of heat and contamination in-
side the tray. For easy access, the lid can be
slid back and folded up.
Only operate the cassette and em-
bedding mold tray and paraffin res-
ervoir with lid; otherwise the set
temperature cannot be maintained.
