Lifting and transporting the Metrohm instrument

1.

Always separate the module from the

monochromator (shown) before lifting or
transporting the instrument.

When the module is attached, raise this handle
to separate the module from the
monochromator.

Slide the module away from the
monochromator.

The monochromator is the heavier component.
Instructions follow.

2.

When lifting the monochromator, place arms on

either side of unit as shown.

Lift with the knees, not with the back!

Lift unit up, move to a cart, and lower gently.

Do not lift from below waist level, as the unit
may be awkward to control.

Ask for assistance when lifting from lower levels
to bench height.

3.

Always use a cart when moving the instrument

from one location to another.

The monochromator weighs 21 kilograms (46.2
lb.) and should never be carried, except when
moving from a bench to a cart, or back.

Modules typically weigh about 10.5 kilograms,
or 23 pounds. Use care when handling.
