2.7. Operation Parameters

2.7.1. Adjust Mode
For basic adjustment of flow rate, the apparatus should be in "Adjust Mode".
In this mode the normal switch-off security systems and the polishing circuit
are not in operation.
Set the apparatus in "Adjust Mode" as follows:
 Replace the rear jet holder by the jet holder with the ascending tube.
 Remove the thermometer from the polishing cell.
 Place the return tube in the thermometer pocket and make sure that the
ascending tube goes inside the return tube.
Place a specimen holder, with a specimen inserted, in the polishing

cell.
 Adjust the flow rate to minimum (turn the flow rate knob counter--
clockwise).
 Switch off the power switch.
 With the Start/Stop-button activated, turn on the power switch.
 Release the Start/Stop-button.
Now the motor is working with the low flow rate and the light of the

polishing diode is yellow. Dependent on other factors the light of the
Start/Stop-diode may be either red or green.
Disconnect "Adjust Mode" in the following way:
 Disconnect "Adjust Mode" either by pushing the Start/Stop-button or by
switching off the main switch.
 Remove the specimen holder from the polishing cell.
 Replace the jet holder with ascending tube by the holder with cathode.
 Remove the return tube and insert the thermometer.
Clean the jet holder with the ascending tube
and the return tube with alcohol after use.
