WARNING
Always ensure that you fill from or drain to a large stable container. The fill/drain functions
include a strong purge which may cause an unstable container to tip over and spill. The
container must also be of sufficient volume to easily accommodate all of the drained fluid.
If you need to use a small container you must support the container and hose during the fill or
drain.
WARNING
Always use the hose supplied with the Peloris system for reagent bottle operations.
WARNING
Ensure you use the correct size wax drain hose to avoid wax leakage. Old and new instruments
have different sized wax waste line connectors.
WARNING
Always wear suitable eye protection and other protective clothing when handling reagents to
protect yourself from splashed reagent.
