Original instructions
Moving and Lifting the Cabinet
Move the cabinet, attached to its pallet, by using a floor jack, or a furniture
dolly underneath the unit. DO NOT move the cabinet by tilting it onto a hand
truck.
When lifting the cabinet DO NOT lift the cabinet in the middle front area of
the hull. Lifting here may bend or distort the bottom of the cabinet, causing
damage to the unit.
Installing the Biosafety Cabinet on an Existing
Work Surface
Note: The biosafety cabinet is very top heavy. Use caution when lifting or
moving it.
When installing the biosafety cabinet onto an existing work surface or benchtop,
ensure that the structure can safely support the combined weight of the cabinet
and any related equipment. The work surface should be at least as wide as the
cabinet and 31 inches (787 mm) deep to properly support the unit.
A hole or notch may be cut in the supporting surface in the right front corner
to accommodate the optional drain valve.
Installing the Cabinet on a Labconco Base Stand
Labconco offers accessory Base Stands in a variety of configurations to suit
your particular needs. Stands can be ordered with adjustable telescoping legs
or with a manually or electrically adjustable hydraulic lift.
