HELPFUL HINTS

¬ Do not touch top or bottom of disk. Handle disk by the edge.
¬ Do not fill disk while in the meter. Fill disk on clean, dry surface.
¬ Fill the disk on a dark surface to more easily see the sample water.
¬ The disk should not contain any large air bubbles. Air bubbles will result in erroneous results.
¬ Only the Universal Disk Cover (Code 1719) can be used with the WaterLink Spin Touch.
¬ Empty syringe of old sample before filling with next sample.
¬ Remove filled disk from meter after testing. Do not travel with filled disks in meter. They may
leak.
¬ Keep the chamber clean and dry. Gently swab LED and photodiode lenses located around the
hub with a cotton swab dampened with streak-free window cleaner. Do not use alcohol. It will
leave a thin film over the lenses when dry.
¬ Hold syringe vertically when filling disks.
¬ Store disks at 70°-80°F/21°-27°C.
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING The optical system of the WaterLink Spin Touch must be kept clean and dry for
optimal performance. Dry the disk with a lint-free wipe before placing it into the chamber to
avoid introducing moisture. For best results, store the instrument in an area that is dry and free
from aggressive chemical vapors. Clean the exterior housing with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not
allow water to enter the light chamber or any other parts of the meter. To clean the light chamber
and optic lenses, point a can of compressed air into the light chamber and the lid and blow the
pressurized air into the light chamber and lid. Focus the pressurized air around the LEDs which
are the small round lenses positioned at 2:00, 4:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00 and 12:00 in the lid. The
photodiodes are located on the bottom of the chamber around the hub. This area must be kept
clean and dry. Use a cotton swab dampened with streak-free window cleaner to gently swab the
LED and photodiode lenses. Do not use alcohol; it will leave a thin residue over the optics when
dry.
Remove smudges due to routine use from the touchscreen with the Cloth Wipe (Code 3580-
WIPE). Use a cloth dampened with alcohol for more thorough cleaning when necessary. Do not
use Windex ® window cleaner, or similar cleaners, on the touchscreen.
