FUSE REPLACEMENT

To change the fuse follow next steps:

• Disconnect the power cord from the rear panel

of the instrument.

• Pull out the fuse holder located near the power

cord connector.

• Replace the fuse with a similar one.

• Push the fuse holder with the fuse in the

appropriate place.

ELECTRODE CONDITIONING & MAITENANCE

PREPARATION PROCEDURE

Remove the protective cap of the pH elec-
trode (

MA919B/1

).

DO NOT BE ALARMED IF SALT DEPOSITS
ARE PRESENT. This is normal with elec-
trodes. They will disappear when rinsed
with water.

During transport, tiny bubbles of air may form
inside the glass bulb affecting proper func-
tioning of the electrode. These bubbles can
be removed by “shaking down” the electrode
as you would do with a glass thermometer.

If the bulb and/or junction is dry, soak the
electrode in 

MA9015

 Storage Solution for at

least one hour.

If the filling solution (electrolyte) is more
than 2½ cm (1”) below the fill hole, add
