Install flask clamp

Flask clamps purchased for use with universal platforms require installation (see

Parts and accessories on

p. 31). Clamps are installed by securing the base of the clamp to the platform with the correct type and
number of screws. All clamps are shipped complete with hardware.

Clamps for 2 L, 2.8 L and 4 L flasks are shipped with an additional girdle to keep the flasks in place. The
girdle is an assembly of springs and sections of rubber tubing. One girdle is already in place on the clamp,
the other is packed separately.
