Changing the user adjustment

If the adjustment is changed, the volume changes by a certain value. Strictly speaking, the

change only applies to the testing volume.
Auxiliary equipment

Supplied adjustment tool (order no. 3120 633.006)

Supplied red adjustment seal (ADJ)

Example
You readjust a 10 -100 μL pipette with a volume setting of 100 μL by 1 μL (1 μL  1%). If the

volume setting is 10 μL, the pipette is also adjusted by 1 μL ( 10%).

1. Remove the gray adjustment seal.
2. Keep the ejector pressed.
3. Insert the adjustment tool (from the delivery package).
4. Turn the adjustment tool until the adjustment display shows the desired value.

6. Carry out weighings to verify accuracy and precision.
7. After the tests, close the opening with the red adjustment seal (from the delivery package).
If the adjustment is meant for a specific liquid, mark the pipette accordingly. Use the labeling area

on the pipette for this purpose and write down the liquid and the volume. Carry out a gravimetric

test for each adjustment change. Follow the test procedures of EN ISO 8655-2 and 8655-6. A

SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) and further information on user and factory adjustment

settings can be found on the Research plus CD and on our website www.eppendorf.com.

5. Place the Research plus on a horizontal surface

(table). When completing the adjustment, look

absolutely vertically at the window and read the set

value via the backsight in the viewing window.
