6. Close the access port valve.
7. Remove the insertion rod completely from the access port.
NOTICE!
Do NOT quench in water; air cool only. If a method of cooling other than air cooling is utilized,
test results will be unreliable.
Using the Emery Cloth on the Steel Wire Coil
Before the wire coil is attached to the CAT-100 for analysis, the two ends of the wire should be
cleaned. An emery cloth is provided for this purpose. It is recommended that each wire end be
lightly cleaned with emery cloth, as pictured in Figure 15.

IMPORTANT!
The correct type of emery cloth must be used for acceptable results. SSi sells a fine grade,
150 grit emery cloth for use in this process. See the Replacement Parts list (page 7) for more
information.
Attaching the Steel Wire Coil to the Binding Posts
Attach one of two wire coil leads to the hole on the right side of one of the two binding posts. Be
sure to insert the coil lead until it touches the back of the post (note the contact points in Figure
16). Then tighten the post to secure the lead. Repeat this procedure for the second lead.
IMPORTANT!
Each lead must touch the back of the post to ensure the correct length of insertion. Note the red
arrows in Figure 16.
