I.4 Set-Up
1) Place the upright rod into the base (refer to assembly instructions in Appendix H). The rack
gear and clamp assembly should face the front of the base. The upright rod is held in place
with the jam nut which is attached from the bottom of the base. Tighten this nut with a
suitable wrench (spanner). Attach leveling feet.
2) Insert the mounting handle on the back of the DV-II + Viscometer into the hole on the clamp
assembly. Be sure that the clamp screw, VS-24Y, is loose.
3) Tighten the VS-24Y clamp screw. Adjust viscometer to be as close to level as possible while
tightening VS-24Y.
4) Connect the RTD probe to the socket on the rear panel of the DV-II + .
5) The Viscometer must be leveled. The level is adjusted using the three leveling screws on
the base. Adjust so that the bubble level on top of the DV-II
+ is centered within the circle.
Note: Check level periodically during use.
