• Take out the fixing module (5). To do so,

hold it by the top edge of the module and

in the recessed grip (6) and pull it out by

pulling upwards.

• Lift the instrument* (7) by holding it by

the base plate at the front and under the

instrument on the back and lift it out of the

formed cushion (8).

• Place the instrument on a stable labora-

tory table.

The two sliding elements (9) located on

the rear of the base plate make it easier

to move the instrument on the table.

• To move the instrument, hold it by the front

of the base plate, lift it up gently and slide

it on its slides.

4. Instrument Setup

• (*= the instrument illustration is provided as

an example only.)

Never hold the instrument for

transport by the handwheel or the

rotary knob for section thickness

adjustment.

Observe the correct resting angle

to the table to avoid pinching your

fingers.
