Starting a Trial Run
In the following steps, you will learn how to load a tray and run
the program you just stored, then stop it after a few moments.
You will not be loading any samples in the tray for this exercise,
but will be able to see how a run is initiated.
Loading a Tray (without samples)
Load an empty tray in the sample block by following these steps.
1
Turn the cover knob fully
counterclockwise
(see Figure 3-5). This
should be done whenever you move the heated cover to ensure
that the heated plate underneath is filly raised.
2
Slide the heated cover away from you.
3
Locate an empty sample tray and orient it so that the cutout in the
lower rim is on the left side. Place the tray in the sample block.
4
Move the heated cover forward to cover the sample compartment to
safeguard against burns. No samples are loaded in the tray so
leave the cover knob fully
counterclockwise
. This keeps the plate
raised above the tray since no samples will be heated.
