Section 5
Operation
Caution Exercise care when using acidic or caustic solutions as they will
attack the galvanized steel bath body if spilled into the bath. If spills do
occur, the bath liquid should be immediately drained and the unit
thoroughly flushed. Spills and condensation should be cleaned/removed
from all metal surfaces after each use.
s
Warning Explosion, implosion or the release of toxic or flammable gases
arising from material being heated is the sole responsibility of the user.
s
Place the stainless steel metal shelf also called diffuser shelf, (corners facing
downward) inside the bath chamber. The shelf provides a sample base and
protects samples from touching the hot metal bath bottom.
If it is necessary to increase the height of the diffuser shelf, a Leg Extension
Kit is included for this purpose. Model 2823/2824 is excluded.
Following the figure shown below, attach the four extension legs to each of
the four corners of the diffuser shelf.
