General Maintenance
Cleaning
Before cleaning disconnect from the mains charger. Do not clean the mains charger.
The Powerpette Pro can be cleaned with most common laboratory disinfectants. The silicone pipette
holder (9) can be autoclaved.
To remove the nosecone (10) and silicone pipette holder (9) turn the nosecone (10) anti-clockwise.
When the nosecone is removed the silicone pipette (9) holder can also be disengaged from the filter
(8) by gently turning.

Replacing the Filter

The hydrophobic filter (8) will require occasional replacement, particularly when wetted by the liquid
and whenever the suction capacity is slowing.
