Figure 11.3 After Mounting the Turret
The turret should be mounted in a posture such that the dovetail groove remains horizontal and the
fitting for position sensing faces down when the sample -changer main unit is erected, as illustrated
in Figure 11.2. Figure 11.3 shows the changer with the turret mounted. In this condition, slide the
turret sideways along the groove, with Sample No. 1 positioned at the bottom, until it reaches the
end of the stroke. Once the turret reaches the end, fasten it by tightening the thumbscrew in the
center.
