Proper use

WARNING

Risk of personal injury and material damage

Improper use of the TissueLyser III may cause personal injuries or

damage to the instrument. Do not attempt to move the TissueLyser III

during operation.

The TissueLyser III should only be operated by qualified personnel

who have been appropriately trained.

Servicing of the TissueLyser III should only be performed by

QIAGEN®or an authorized agent (service technicians). Do not carry

out any modifications of the instrument.

QIAGEN shall not be held responsible for any injuries or damages

resulting from nonobservance of the instructions and safety

information in this guide.

WARNING

The sound level may be high depending on the type of material, the

number of balls used, the set grinding frequency, and the grinding

time. Excess noise in terms of intensity and duration can lead to

impairments or permanent damage to hearing. Wear hearing

protection.

Excess noise can also lead to acoustic warning signals of other

instruments not being heard. Add visual signals if necessary.

CAUTION

Damage to the instrument

Use of adapters and plasticware other than those described in the

TissueLyser III User Manual

may lead to damage to the clamps of the

TissueLyser III.

TissueLyser III Safety Instructions and Quick Start Guide 05/2023

CAUTION

Damage to the instrument

Avoid spilling water or chemicals onto the TissueLyser III. Damage

caused by water or chemical spillage will void your warranty.

CAUTION

Damage to the instrument

Operation of the TissueLyser III with the transport security device

installed, or transport of the TissueLyser III without the transport

security device installed, can lead to damage to the mechanical

components of the instrument.

CAUTION

Damage to the instrument

Operation of the TissueLyser III at a temperature and humidity outside

the range specified may lead to damage to its electronic and

mechanica

l components as well as a reduction in instrument

performance.

WARNING

Risk of personal injury and material damage through falling of the

instrument

Improper handling of the TissueLyser III during transport and

installation can lead to user injury. Particularly when lifting the

instrument above head height, the instrument can fall and lead to

serious injury.

Do not transport the instrument alone. Transport the instrument close

to the floor and avoid lifting above the head.

Install the instrument on a sufficiently large, solid, and stable surface

that is protected against oscillations. Ensure that all instrument feet

are sitting stably and evenly on the surface.

TissueLyser III Safety Instructions and Quick Start Guide 05/2023

Electrical safety

WARNING

Electrical hazard

Any interruption of the protective conductor (earth/ground lead)

inside or outside the TissueLyser III or disconnection of the protective

conductor terminal is likely to make the TissueLyser III dangerous.

Intentional interruption is prohibited.

Take note of the values for voltage and frequency on the TissueLyser

III type plate and only connect the TissueLyser III to a fitting power

grid.

Only connect the TissueLyser III to the power grid with the enclosed

power cable and to a power outlet with protective conductor

(earth/ground).

Before each usage, check the power cord and the plug for damage.

Never use the instrument with damaged power cord or plug.

Lethal voltages inside the TissueLyser III.

When the TissueLyser III is connected to line power, terminals may

be live and opening the TissueLyser III or removing parts is likely to

expose live parts.

Install the instrument in a way that allows easy access to the power

cord connector and the power switch.

To ensure satisfactory and safe operation of the TissueLyser III, follow the advice below:

The line power cord must be connected to a line power outlet that has a protective

conductor (earth/ground).

Do not adjust or replace internal parts of the TissueLyser III.

Do not operate the TissueLyser III with any covers or parts removed.

If liquid has spilled inside the TissueLyser III, switch off the TissueLyser III, disconnect it

from the power outlet, and contact QIAGEN Technical Services.

TissueLyser III Safety Instructions and Quick Start Guide 05/2023

If the TissueLyser III becomes electrically unsafe, prevent other personnel from operating

it, and contact QIAGEN Technical Services; the TissueLyser III may be electrically unsafe

when:

It or the line power cord appears to be damaged.

It has been stored under unfavorable conditions for a prolonged period.

It has been subjected to severe transport stresses.

If the TissueLyser III is not in use, switch it off at the power switch. If the TissueLyser III will not

be used for a prolonged period of time, unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

Environment

WARNING

Explosive atmosphere

The TissueLyser III is not designed for use in an explosive atmosphere.

WARNING

Risk of explosion

The TissueLyser III is intended for use with reagents and substances

supplied with QIAGEN kits. Use of other reagents and substances

may lead to fire or explosion.

CAUTION

Biological safety

Specimens and reagents containing materials from humans or animals should be treated as

potentially infectious. Use safe laboratory procedures as outlined in publications such as

Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories

, CDC (1).

Samples

Samples may contain infectious agents. You should be aware of the health hazard presented

by such agents and should use, store, and dispose of such samples according to the required

safety regulations.

WARNING

Samples containing infectious agents

Some samples used with the TissueLyser III may contain infectious

agents. Handle such samples with the greatest of care and in

accordance with the required safety regulations.

Always wear safety glasses, 2 pairs of gloves, and a lab coat.

The responsible body (e.g., laboratory manager) must take the

necessary precautions to ensure that the surrounding workplace is

safe and that TissueLyser III operators are suitably trained and not

exposed to hazardous levels of infectious agents as defined in the

applicable Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) or OSHA,* ACGIH,†or

COSHH‡documents.

Venting for fumes and disposal of wastes must be in accordance with

all national, state, and local health and safety regulations and laws.

* OSHA: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (United States of America).

Chemicals

WARNING

Hazardous chemicals

Some chemicals used with the TissueLyser III may be hazardous or

may become hazardous after completion of the sample disruption

process.

Always wear safety glasses, gloves, and a lab coat.

The

responsible body (e.g., laboratory manager) must take the

necessary precautions to ensure that the surrounding workplace is

safe and that TissueLyser III operators are not exposed to hazardous

levels of toxic substances (chemical or biological) as defined in the

applicable Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) or OSHA,* ACGIH,†or

COSHH‡documents.
