Place the PC-10 on a heavy, vibration-free laboratory bench. Avoid areas directly beneath air conditioning vents, heating ducts, or windows, as fluctuating drafts will compromise the thermal consistency of the heating coil, leading to erratic pipette shapes. Assembling the Weights and Slider Heating Element: Nichrome heater coil
Place the puller on a heavy, vibration-free laboratory bench. Avoid areas near air conditioning vents, windows, or high-traffic walkways, as drafts alter coil cooling times. Place the PC-10 on a heavy, vibration-free laboratory bench
