I. Cleaning

Instrument, Keypad & Painted Surfaces:

Clean with dry, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use solvents or cleaners.

Immersed Components (spindles/cones) and temperature controlled plate:

All immersed components are made of carbide steel. Clean with non-abrasive cloth

and solvent appropriate for sample material that is not aggressive to immersed compo-

nents.

Do not use metal objects to clean the plate surface, as scratching of the plate may oc-

cur and compromise cone calibrations.

Note: When cleaning, take care not to apply excessive force which may bend the spindle shaft

or otherwise damage the instrument.
