The following instructions relate only to
basic preparation and loading of
glassware. There are additional
requirements for particular applications.
Loading the machine
Remove debris
^
Empty all glassware before loading
into the machine.
Ensure that no acid or solvent
residues, especially hydrochloric
acid or chlorides, get into the wash
cabinet.
^ Remove all agar residue from petri
dishes.
^ Remove blood clots and residue from
test tubes, etc.
^ Remove all stoppers, corks, labels,
sealing wax residue, etc.
Note
^
Load items so that water will cover all
surfaces. This ensures that they will
be properly cleaned.
^
Do not place items to be cleaned
inside of other pieces, where they
may be concealed.
^
Hollow vessels, such as beakers,
graduated cylinders, flasks, etc.,
should be inverted and placed in the
correct inserts to ensure proper
cleaning. A cover net can be used to
reduce the risk of glass breakage
during the wash process.
^ Petri dishes and similar items should
be placed in the correct insert with
the soiled side facing center.
^ Pipettes should be placed with the
narrow end pointing down.
^ Deep-based items should be placed
at an angle to allow water to run off
easily.
^
Tall, narrow pieces should be placed
in the center of the basket for best
water coverage.
^
The spray arms must not be blocked
by items that are too tall or hang
through baskets. Check clearance by
manually rotating the spray arms.
