Air Filters

MAGPIX has two air filters, one on the bottom of the instrument and one on the back of
the instrument. These filters require periodic cleaning to perform optimally.

The filter on the bottom of MAGPIX can be slid out of its holder toward the front of the
instrument. This requires lifting up or tilting the instrument. The filter on the back of
MAGPIX can be slid up out of its holder.

CAUTION:

Before lifting the instrument, remove all liquid from the off plate
reagent block and remove the fluid containers.
