Getting started
4.1
Levelling the device
Place the cabinet on an even surface and use the adjustable feet and a water level to level it
properly.
ATTENTION:
Make sure to place the cabinet in an area with as little draft as possible. Do
not place it in high-traffic areas.
4.2
Preparation of the sample
Samples should have dimensions of 200 x 100 mm. Further information and requirements can
be found in the relevant standards (such as AMK-MB-005 or DIN 68930).
4.3
Test preparation
1.
Fill the water tank with water up to the mark (see picture below).
Note: Filling in hot water reduces the heating time by a fairly high amount.
2.
Close the door, plug in the power plug an turn on the device by using the main switch.
Turn on the heating element by using the key switch below the display.
Put the cover on the water tank to speed up the heating process.
ATTENTION:
Do not touch the heating element or put your hand into
the water when the heating element is turned on.
