2.2 Warnings
The safety devices installed in this instrument by the manufacturer only constitute the basis for accident
prevention. Primarily responsible for accident-free operation is above all the institution which owns the
instrument and, in addition, the designated personnel who operates, services or repairs the instrument.
To ensure trouble-free operation of the instrument, make sure to comply with the following instructions
and warnings.
Transport and installation
Warning
• Keep in mind chapter (→p. 14 – 3.1 Technical data)!
• During transport, keep the instrument upright!
• When transporting the instrument, do not lift it up by the carousel cover!
• Do not operate the instrument in rooms with explosion hazard.
• Caution! The voltage selector is factory preset. Before connecting the instrument to the power
supply, make sure this setting is correct for your laboratory's electrical connection values. The
socket for connecting the power cable is sealed with an adhesive tape indicating the factory
preset voltage for your particular instrument.
• Connecting the instrument to the power with the voltage selector set at a wrong value can cause
severe damage to the instrument!
• When adjusting the voltage selector setting, the instrument must be disconnected from the power
supply.
• The instrument may only be connected to the power with the cable supplied together with the
instrument and it may only be connected to grounded sockets.
Working with the instrument
Warning
• The carousel may not be rotated manually! Severe damage will result from doing so!
• Caution when lowering the carousel! Keep your fingers out of the space between the container lid
and the upper rim of the container!
• Caution! In case of a power failure, the carousel automatically descends into a station.
• Instruments equipped with vacuum function may only be operated with the aluminum containers
supplied together with the instrument. Glass beakers used in combination with the vacuum
accessories have a high hazard potential when damaged!
• While operating the instrument, no liquid may enter in contact with any of the electrical
connections or the interior of the instrument.
• Make sure to observe the level indicators on the reagent containers and wax baths.
• Warning! Use caution when handling solvents! Make sure the premises are adequately
ventilated! Explosion hazard!

12 Version 3.5, Revision M
Safety

Working with the instrument (continued)
Warning
• Spilled reagents have to be wiped away immediately. In case of long-term exposure, the
instrument surfaces are only conditionally resistant to solvents.
• Always observe worker's protection rules and use adequate protective gear (gloves, laboratory
coats).
• The heated wax baths may only be used with paraffin. Under no circumstances may they be filled
with solvents. When solvents heat, a highly explosive mixture builds up!
• Caution! The interior containers of the wax baths become very hot when the heating function is
activated! Do not touch the gray upper rim of the containers with your hands! Burn hazard!
• Caution when handling hot paraffin! Burn hazard!
Cleaning
Warning
• Turn off the power switch before cleaning the instrument.
• Caution! The interior containers of the wax baths become very hot when the heating function is
activated! Do not touch the gray upper rim of the containers with your hands! Burn hazard!
• Caution when handling hot paraffin! Burn hazard!
• When cleaning the instrument, no liquid may enter in contact with any of the electrical
connections or the interior of the instrument.
• Spilled reagents have to be wiped away immediately. In case of long-term exposure, the
instrument surfaces are only conditionally resistant to solvents.
• To clean the painted surfaces, the container platform and the control panel, do not use solvents
containing acetone or xylene; neither use abrasive cleaning powders! Only mild household
detergents may be used! The lacquered surfaces and the control panel are not resistant to xylene
or acetone!
Maintenance
Warning
• Only authorized and qualified service personnel may access the internal components of the
instrument for service and repair!
• Before replacing the fuses, turn off the power switch and unplug the instrument!
• Burnt-out fuses may only be replaced by fuses of the same type and specification. For appropriate
brands and specifications, see (→p. 14 – 3.1 Technical data).

Safety 2
Wax baths
Warning
• If the excess temperature repeatedly – please call Leica Technical Service. DO NOT continue to
use the wax bath.
• Check if the wax bath works trouble-free. Use of defective wax baths has to be discontinued for
safety reasons!
• Empty the wax baths completely before the paraffin cools! When cooling down, the paraffin
contracts, which can cause damage to the wax bath.
Activated carbon filter (optional accessory)
Warning
Fire hazard! If a filter becomes saturated with solvent, there is a potential fire risk! It is important that
the activated carbon filters are changed at factory recommended intervals.

3.2 Description of the instrument
The Leica TP1020 is an automatic tissue processor designed for laboratory applications. It is used for
the fixation, dehydration and infiltration of histological tissue samples with fixatives, alcohol, solvents
and paraffin wax.
The reagent stations numbered 1 - 10 are used to contain reagents. Station 10 may be replaced with an
optional third wax bath. Stations 11, 12, and if used 10, are heated, temperature controlled wax baths
that can be filled with either wax pellets or molten paraffin wax.
Embedding cassettes used to hold the tissue samples, are placed into the tissue basket. The basic
instrument is designed for a single tissue basket. An optional second basket can be added. The basket,
or baskets, are moved clockwise from station to station.
To ensure thorough infiltration the basket containing the tissue samples is agitated, by moving up and
down, at each station. This function can be switched off at any time.
During processing as the tissue basket moves from station to station there is a delay period of sixty (60)
seconds during which time the basket is suspended above the station. Excess liquid can drip down
during this process. This ensures that there is minimal reagent carryover from station to station.
All instrument functions are activated through the control panel. Real time is displayed via LCD. The
instrument can be operated in manual and automatic processing mode. Automatic processing is
controlled via 9 different programs which can be individually set up, altered and edited.

If a power failure occurs, the specimens are protected from drying out – even when overnight
processing has been selected, since in case of a power failure the tissue basket will always be
immersed into a station. Once the power is restored, processing will be resumed where it had been
interrupted. After a long-term power failure, critical excess immersion time in a station will be visually
displayed.
3.3 Standard delivery – packing list
