3.2 Initial Startup and Normal Operation

released by the company Sartorius Stedim Biotech

components such as jars. Any damaged components
must not be used.
3. Never use the shaker without the tray. Switch the unit
off before installing/uninstalling trays, mounting sets,
or additional accessories.
4. When mounting the trays, leave enough space between
the unit and other objects, especially in case of trays
extending over or beyond the shaker table or bench.
Make sure that trays are properly installed and
fastened.
5. Fasten the tray mountings and accessories properly.
Distribute loads evenly on the tray when loading the

bottles, etc.).
6. In case of incubation shaking cabinets, make sure the
tray is firmly positioned; close the doors before starting

or objects or large amplitudes and heavy loads.
Never put fingers between tray support and frame when

is narrow due to constructional constraints. Risk of
injury!

support has come to a completel standstill before
