11. While the machine is running, try to turn the latch counterclockwise.
Power may be cut to the motor but you should be unable to fully turn the
latch. If it is possible to turn the latch and open the lid while the unit is
running, contact The Drucker Company for assistance. Close and latch
the lid.
12. Push the ‘OPEN / EMERGENCY STOP’ button. The ‘RUN’ indicator
light should go out and the motor should slow to a stop.
13. The lid should remain locked until the rotor has nearly stopped. If the
machine unlocks prematurely, contact The Drucker Company for
assistance. Once the rotor has stopped, the interlock system will b
come disengaged for sixty (60) seconds. The ‘UNLOCKED’ indicator
light will illuminate during this time.
14. To gain entry into the centrifuge after this period has ended, simply
press the ‘OPEN / EMERGENCY STOP’ button. The lid will unlock for
fifteen (15) additional seconds.
After the centrifuge has passed this procedure it is ready for operation.
