How do I replace the pipette head?

Hamilton’s ZEUS X1 is capable of simple and easy pipette head removal and replacement. Perform the following procedure to replace the pipette head on ZEUS X1.

To remove the pipette head:

  1. Power off the instrument.
  2. Place your index finger over the pipette head latch (blue) at the top of the head. Grip each side of the head using your thumb on one side and your remaining fingers on the other.
  3. Press down on the pipette head latch (blue) with your index finger. This will release the head and allow the user to tilt the head away from the body.
  4. With the head tilted away from the body, lift the head up so the corner pin on the head disengages the hook on the body. Set the head aside.

To replace the head:

  1. Grab the replacement head.
  2. Tilt the head back at an angle and place the pin on the bottom corner of the head into the hook on the body.
  3. Gently tilt the head towards the body until the blue latch clicks into place.

And you are done!
