• If some or all specimen slides are to be removed, use the LIFT key to raise
the output magazines to the removal position. Removal is not absolutely
necessary after each specimen slide holder, as long as sufficient ca-
pacity remains in the output magazine for the next coverslipping cycle
(max. capacity = 60 specimen slides).

5. Operation
If the space in the output magazine has already been assigned
completely but there are still SPECIMEN SLIDES TO BE COVER-
SLIPPED present in the loading bath, this is indicated by the mes-
sage "PAUSED" and "CHECK LIFT" accompanied by a signal tone.
The "CHECK LIFT" message is a note that the assigned output mag-
azine has to be removed. Insert the empty output magazines and
only then confirm the signal tone with the RESPOND button. The
"CHECK LIFT" message and signal tone disappear. The empty out-
put magazines are moved into the position required for retrieving
the coverslipping operation. The "PAUSE" message remains on the
screen. The coverslipping operation can be continued by pressing
the START button.
General note:
Full output magazines are automatically moved to the output posi-
tion with the following exceptions:
a) If just one 20-pack or 30-pack output magazine is inserted
b) If just two 20-pack output magazines are inserted
c) If only part of the output magazine is occupied after ending
the coverslipping operation.
The LIFT button must be pressed in these cases.
