Fig. 4-2: Double girdle clamp
To install these double girdle clamps:
1. Place clamp on platform, aligning its mounting holes with the holes on the platform.
2. Secure the clamp in place using the flat Phillips head screws provided (#S2116-3051, 10-24 × 5/16 in).
3. With the first girdle in place, as delivered, on the upper part of the clamp body, insert an empty flask
into the clamp.
4. After making sure the sections of tubing are located between the clamp legs, roll the first girdle down
the legs of the clamp as far as it can go.
The tubing sections will rest against the platform, and the springs will be under the clamp base.
5. Place the second girdle around the upper portion of clamp body (just as the first girdle was initially).
6. Make sure that its spring sections rest against the clamp legs, while its rubber tubing sections sit
against the flask, in between the clamp legs.
