Instructions for Use V 3.0 RevE – 04/2013

Press the PRIME button once. The message "ACTIVATING"

appears and the instrument continues to generate pressure

in the coverslip mountant bottle until the pump noise can no

longer be heard and the message "PRIME" appears.
Now press the PRIME button a second time. Hold the but-

ton until the coverslip mountant comes out of the dispenser

without bubbles. Do not dispense coverslip mountant into the

existing glass vial; use an alternate container instead (e.g.

upper part of the cover slip packaging).
If sufficient coverslip mountant has been dispensed, the

message "DISP. POSITION" appears. Move the dispenser into

working position. The message disappears and the instrument

is ready to operate. The displays shows the message "READY".
If the "READY" LED switches from red to green, the coverslip-

ping operation can be started by pressing the "START" button.

5. Operation

A loaded specimen slide holder can now be inserted into the

loading bath. After inserting it, push the loading drawer back

and close the loading door.
The message "PRIME POSITION" appears. Take the dispenser

out of the rest position; the message "PRIME TO ACT." is dis-

played.

5.3 Switching the instrument on or off (continued)

Important!

In general, when inserting or removing the dispenser,

make sure that caution is used during movements at

the time of insertion or removal. If the dispenser falls

down, it can cause injuries to users and damage to

the dispenser group/instrument.
