[Histonet] Cleaning molds

[Cheri Miller]

What we do is, warm the dirty rack, lids and molds in the oven to rid of
excess paraffin and then put them thru the clean cycle. Works well for us.
It's not so hard on the processor, Cheri

At the previous facility I worked at, we daily cleaned our mold in the
cleaning cycle until we had a problem with the processor and was told by
the field service engineer and then the company that doing this was hard
on the machine with all of the excess paraffin in the tubing.  I do not
know if that has any merit, but, we quit doing that and never had that
type of problem again.  Just a thought!!
