Remove any mold from the mold holder(s).

Notice that each mold holder unit is made up of two long Black Ceramic
“fingers”, both fastened to a common aluminum support. This support is in

a spring, to allow for some movement in case the fragile fingers are
accidentally bumped into.

Using a hex key, remove the screw shown below, for each position. Be
careful not to drop the screw or spring (not shown on picture). This will allow
you to remove the mold finger support.

Notice that the motor plate is machined with three slanted faces, so that the
fingers are expected to go slightly sideways.
5.
Carefully store the mold holder(s) until needed again. (Caution: the fingers
are sharp and brittle. Do not lose the spring or screw.)

between vertical prongs at the free end of each finger. Each of the four prongs is
also cut diagonally, so that fingers are symmetrical two by two (i.e. finger “A” and
