The needle height has to be corrected after rein-
serting the dispenser needle.
Setting the needle height:
• Reset the dispenser (35) from the working
position ( see Fig. 16, 57) to the rest position
( see Fig. 15, 39).
• There is a screw ( see Fig. 16 , 54) in the work-
ing position. This determines the distance
between the dispenser needle and specimen
slide.
• The height of the dispenser can be changed
by rotating the screw using a No. 3 Allen key
(56) (standard delivery):
- Rotating clockwise decreases the dis-
tance.
- Rotating counterclockwise increases the
distance.
• Keep rotating the screw clockwise until the
dispenser needle is touching the highest point
of the specimen slide outfeed ( see Fig. 14, 55)
(distance = 0 mm). This can be checked by
putting the dispenser into the working position.
