ETTING

STARTED

2.8 Fitting the spindle

Note:

This operation must be done very carefully to

ensure that the spindle is not bent and the motor drive
coupling or internal components are not damaged.

1. Consult “Spindle selection tables” on page 19 to identify

the correct spindle to use; the spindle type is stamped
into the spindle coupling.

2. Check that the threads and connecting surfaces of the

spindle and the motor drive coupling are clean.

3. If the spindle is of a disc type, it should be submerged

carefully in the sample to avoid bubbles forming under its
lower surface.

4. Grasp the motor drive coupling with one hand, raise it

slightly and then screw the spindle onto the coupling
gently.

The screw has a left-hand thread

5. Adjust the height of the Viscometer head until the spindle

is immersed in the sample up to the immersion point,
indicated by a groove on the spindle. T

ake care to avoid

knocking the sample container against the spindle during
this operation as this may damage the spindle and motor
drive coupling

2.9 Caution

The Elcometer Rotary Viscometer has been manufactured with your safety in mind.
However, improper use can result in damage to the machine.
Please observe the precautions discussed in these operating instructions.

•

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not open the head of the Viscometer. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside.

•

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the Viscometer to rain or excess
moisture.

•

The mains plug on your Viscometer may be fitted with a fuse. When replacing this fuse, ensure
a fuse of the correct rating is used.
