Setup
1. Connect the instrument to a 13 - 16 VDC, current-limited power source.
2. With the instrument turned off, place the splash guard onto the bob shaft with
the short tube end pointed up towards the bearings. Push up.
3. Screw on the appropriate bob with the tapered end up towards the splash guard.
4. Place the sleeve onto the rotor over the bob. The threads assure the rotor will
attach evenly and uniformly each and every time.
5. The power switch is located on the back panel. Turn the unit on.
6.
Place a properly prepared sample of test fluid in a sample cup and immerse
the rotor sleeve exactly to the fill line on the sleeve by raising the platform.
Tighten the lock nut on the platform.
