7. Preparations for Tissue Processing
7.1 Filling the reagent stations
• Lift the carousel cover.
• Fill all stations with the corresponding reagents. Make sure to observe
the minimum and maximum level indication marks.
• Mount every container onto the station holder at the corresponding sta-
tion.
Spilled reagents have to be wiped away immediately.
In case of long-term exposure, the instrument surfaces are only
conditionally resistant to solvents.
The container rims and sealing rings of the lids always have to be
clean. The lids have to close tightly - otherwise larger amounts of
solvent fumes will escape and, in instruments with vacuum func-
tion, vacuum will not be generated.
