6 Setting up the platform
shaker
(model SI30H only)
During transit, the platform is stored vertically at
the rear of the incubator chamber. It can remain
in this position whilst the rotisserie is in use. To
use the platform shaker for ‘sandwich box’
hybridisations, the following procedure should be
adopted:
6.1 Open the incubator door to its fullest extent,
Lift the rotisserie vertically and
store in a safe place.
6.2 Lift the platform by its handle (A on figure 4)
from its storage position, slide
it forward and locate it on the rocking
mechanism by placing the side pegs
of the platform into the retainers (D) on the
side walls of the incubator chamber.
This action seats the nylon blocks (C) on the
underside of the platform on to
the pegs (E) protruding from the rocker
mechanism at the rear of the incubator.
6.3 Place the box in which the hybridisation is
being performed on to the shaker platform
and close the incubator door.
6.4 Ensure that the desired temperature has
been set (see section 3.0).
6.5 Turn the rotisserie / shaker ON by pressing
the on / off button (1). The red indicator
light (3) above the speed selector dial (2) will
illuminate.
6.6 Rotate the rotisserie / shaker speed selector
dial (2) clockwise, until the desired
shaker speed is reached. Allowable values
are 5 – 70 strokes per minute.
The shaker platform will now oscillate at the
set speed.
6.7 When hybridisation is complete turn the
rotisserie / shaker OFF by pressing the on / off
button (1). The red indicator will go out (3).
