6.1 Placing the objects and starting the program

– Remove the lid (27) from the polymerization contains.
Secure the objects to be polymerized on the alligator
clips (28).
– Slowly insert the polymerization container with lid and
objects, or models held by the Wallfixator, into the
pressure chamber.
– Close chamber lid (4). Bolt the chamber by sliding the
knob (3) to the left. Press safety lever down until it
audibly clicks into place.

The program automatically begins, once the timer
is set. Note: For times under 5 minutes, first turn
the timer to approximately 10 minutes, then
immediately turn it back to the desired time.
(If required, the time may be returned to zero during the
automatic program in progress. The time may also be
prolonged or shortened.)
Timer
– Automatic program:
• The manometer (7) indicates the rise in pressure
(check to make sure that the required operating
pressure has been reached by the time the selected
temperature has been achieved.
Manometer
• The water in the pressure chamber is heated.
The black indicator on the thermostat registers the
current temperature.
• Once the desired temperature is reached, the set
polymerization time begins (timer countdown).
• After the polymerization time, the water is ejected
from the pressure chamber and flows into the canister.
At the same time, the pressure is released (indicated
on the manometer).
