Precautio
ns
The sampling needle and other components inside the analyzer may cause injury, or can
get damaged if handled incorrectly. Only certified personnel should open the covers.
Running measurements with opened cover is not recommended due to the risk of
possible injury. Always wear safety gloves while performing maintenance act
ions.
The analyzer weighs 35kg (~77lbs). Please do not attempt to move it alone. The analyzer
should always be moved by two persons holding the analyzer by its sides in an upright

To prepare the analyzer for shipping, storage or extended periods of inactivity, please
drain the reagents and repackage the Hemolyzer 5 in its original packaging. Do not
expose the Hemolyzer 5 to direct
sunlight, extreme temperature or humidity (>80%).
The analyzer operates with chemically and biologically active reagents. Physical contact
with these reagents should be avoided. Please read reagent descriptions carefully for
possible emergency actions.
