questionable fusion joints. Check heater plates periodically
with a pyrometer and make necessary adjustments.
Refer to the "Maintenance" section of this manual for instructions
how to adjust heater temperature.

The dial thermometer can be used as reference once the surface
temperature has been verified and is never a substitute for actual
surface temperature.
