Seat the running tray between the foam pads in the 
casting tray by placing one end of the tray against 
the foam pad, slightly compressing it, then seating 
the other end of the tray against the opposite foam 
pad. (See arrows A and B in Fig 2.) The running tray 
should lay flush against the bottom of the casting tray.

Place the casting tray assembly on a leveling surface 
and level, using the spirit level on the running tray as 
a guide. Check that the comb assembly leaves ~

~1 mm 

of space between the comb bottom and the running 
tray. Remove the level and the comb assembly.

Prepare the combs

1

Align the two slots in the comb with the loosened 
thumb screws of the comb back. Tighten the screws 
until the comb is just supported. 

2

Place the comb assembly into a set of slots on the 
running tray seated in the casting tray. Adjust the 
comb so that the bottom of the teeth are ~

~1.0 mm 

from the running tray. Tighten the screws to secure 
the comb. 

To run twice as many samples on the 15 and 20 cm 
trays, prepare two comb assemblies and place one 
near the cathode end, indicated by the black dot, and 
one at the center.
