1.4. Installation
Upon receiving the Ohaus Light Duty/Microplate Shaker check to ensure that no damage has occurred during
shipment. It is important that any damage that occurred in transport is detected at the time of unpacking. If you do
find such damage, the carrier must be notified immediately.
After unpacking, place the Light Duty/Microplate Shaker on a level bench or table, away from explosive vapors.
Secure to an immovable work surface by pressing down on the four (4) corners of the unit, creating a strong
suction to the work surface (DO NOT place on a bench mat or press on the tray). Do not position the equipment
such that it is difficult to disconnect the power cord during use. Always place the unit on a clean and sturdy work
surface.
Plug the power supply provided with the Light Duty/Microplate Shaker into the power jack on the back of the unit.
Only use the power supply provided with the unit. The Light Duty/Microplate Shaker is supplied with a 3 conductor,
grounded power cord. Connect to the provided power supply to the power cord and plug the power cord into a
standard grounded outlet.
If the cord supplied does not meet your needs, please use an approved power cord that has ratings equal to or
exceeding those of the originally provided cord and that complies with the local/national regulations of the country
in which the equipment is to be used.
