Lubricating
Always switch the power to off when making
adjustments to (such as lubricating) the liquid
handler. The potential exists for bodily harm if you
interfere with the work area of the instrument
while it is running.
Horizontal Pitch and Vertical Rods
Refer to the instructions and diagrams on the
next few pages for information on lubricating the
horizontal pitch and vertical rods on the Quad-Z
215.
What you need
• Mobile 007 grease (part number 25494101,
included in the 215 Alignment Kit, part number
254941)
• Applicator (a cotton swab, for example)
Procedures
1 Turn OFF power to the Quad-Z 215.
2 Dispense a small bead of grease on the
applicator.
3 Apply the grease to the visible and accessible
areas on the vertical rods and
horizontal pitch rods on the Z-arm
(refer to the pictures on the next page).
4 Repeatedly (and slowly), move the
probe holders up and down to
distribute the grease along the vertical
rods.
5 Using a 2.5 mm hex wrench, adjust the
pitch to 9 or 18 mm (whichever is
opposite of the current setting). Refer to
the diagram at right.
