Adding molten paraffin
• Molten wax may have a maximum temperature of 70 ° C.
• If filling with molten wax, do not fill above the MAX level (see Fig. 15 ).
• After a wax bath has been filled, it must be marked as ‘full’ in the
REAGENT STATUS screen.
Software control
• If the wax baths are filled with molten wax, it is possible to override
the Leica ASP300 melting time calculation.
For that purpose, in supervisor mode, access the
SERVICE FUNCTIONS screen (
Fig. 16 ).
• Press TIME UNTIL WAX MELTED.
• Enter the required delay time and press OK
to confirm.
If the instrument attempts a paraffin step with the paraffin only partly molten, severe instru-
ment malfunctions may occur.
