Inially place the heated plate so that the window is centred with the microscope opcs. Adjust the posion forwards and backwards if required, ie if the front of the device obstructs the air ow at the front of the cabinet then it can be moved back towards the microscope.

Posioning of Flush Embryology Heated Plate (6-70-807-A/B)The Flush Embryology Heated Plate should be mounted in a ow hood tray or other work surface prior to being installed. Mounng guidelines can be provided by RI upon request as each installaon needs to be considered on an individual basis.  A movable aperture is provided on the underneath of the device which is intended to hide surfaces beneath the device from view. The movable aperture can be adjusted forwards and backward in order to centre it with the light source/microscope opcs. Alternavely it can be removed completely if it is not required.
Secon 411Installaon ChecklistResearch Instruments Ltd4When installing a Flush Embryology Heated Plate the movable aperture will need to be adjusted in order that it is centred with the microscope opcs. Refer to Sit On Top secon for details of movable aperture adjustment.  To slide the movable aperture loosen the 4 screws, slide the aperture into the desired posion then re-ghten the screws. Note that to move the aperture into posion in front and behind the centre line of the window, it is necessary to turn the movable aperture over. The 4 screws will need to be removed in order to do this. See “Figure 4-2” on page 10.4.
