4.2
Assembly of the equipment and components
The water bath has four main components, the bath, the lid, the tray (supplied
separately) and the shaking mechanism. The lid should only be lifted by the handle
provided as other parts can become hot during use. It also has a vent/thermometer hole -
this hole should not be sealed as pressure could build up inside the bath.
The shaking mechanism and tray should be fitted as follows
1. Put the drive magnet into the hole in the base of the tank.
2. Place the shaking trolley in the tank with the axles parallel to the front panel, and
with the peg of the drive arm in the hole in the top of the drive magnet.
3. Place the shaking tray on the shaking trolley (see diagram below showing the
universal plain tray).
