Press the stop button on the LCD to disable the motor
•
Clear the obstruction that is causing the movement to be interrupted

Bent Spindle

When setting the lower position of the test ensure that the stop completely
depresses the limit switch (silver button on sled) prior to contacting the bottom of the
sample container

Ensure the screw on the stop is tight

Clear obstruction that caused the tip condition. Check cabling and the spindle for
contact with the bottom of the sample container
