Note: Wear gloves to keep
the caster and plates free of
finger marks.
3
Slide the sandwich into the casting clamp assem-
bly, notched plate facing the back block, and plate
bottoms flush with the flat surface.
4
While holding the sandwich in place, secure it by
tightening all 6 screws until they are finger-tight.
(To prevent breaking plates, do not over tighten.)
5
Inspect plate and spacer alignment. To prevent leak-
ing, the bottom of the plates and spacers must be
aligned and the sandwich should protrude slightly
below the back block. Adjust if necessary.
6
Place the white foam gasket into the bottom of the
casting slot and lay the black gasket over it.
7
Place the clamp assembly in the casting cradle, screw
side facing out. In this position the gel will be visible
through the rectangular glass plate.
8
Insert a cam into each hole on both sides of the
casting cradle with the arrow (short end) pointing up.
Seal the sandwich by turning both cams 180° so that
the arrow points down.
