I.4 Set-Up
1) Assemble the laboratory stand. (Refer to Appendix E.)
2) Mount the Viscometer securely on a Brookfield laboratory stand. On some Viscom-
eters, it may be necessary to unscrew the nut located at the point where the power cord
enters the viscometer. This permits the metal handle to be inserted into the laboratory
stand clamp.
Note: The position of the laboratory stand clamp assembly is important. Refer to
Appendix E for proper alignment and positioning of the clamp assembly.
Level the viscometer, referring to the bubble level on the instrument. If the
viscometer cannot be leveled, recheck the laboratory stand assembly, as shown on
Sheet #82-0330 (supplied with Model A laboratory stand).
3) Verify that the viscometer's power requirements match your power source before
connecting it to power.
4) For Cone/Plate models, refer to Appendix A.
