3.3.5 LEVER POSITIONING
Check the knife support to ensure that knife blade or “V” is positioned so it is resting in the
groove of the support bar. If the blade is not being supported on the cushion (caused by severe
shaking and vibration during transport), push down the main lever by hand and slide the blade
into the groove (see image below). Replace upper cover.

INSTALLING ANVIL STAGE
Insert anvil into up/down screw feed
3.3.7 INSTALLING INDENTER
Install the indenter so that the flat end of the shank is facing the screw. Lift the indenter all
the way into the guide and tighten the screw. It is good practice to set the indenter in place
by doing an indent on the sample and then discarding this indent from any analysis.
