Personnel safety
WARNING
Wear protective goggles and working clothes suitable for laboratory
work while operating the 919 IC Autosampler plus. It is also advisable
to wear gloves when caustic liquids are used or in situations where
glass vessels could break.
WARNING
Always install the safety shield supplied with the equipment before
using the instrument for the first time. Pre-installed safety shields are
not allowed to be removed.
The 919 IC Autosampler plus may not be operated without a safety
shield!
WARNING
Personnel are not permitted to reach into the working area of the
instrument while operations are running!
A considerable risk of injury exists for the user.

In the event of a possible blockage of a drive, the mains plug must be
pulled out of the socket immediately. Do not attempt to free jammed
sample vessels or other parts while the device is switched on. Blockages

action generally involves a considerable risk of injury.
