Instruction Manual
The electrolyte container and the pump system must be cleaned with
water after use.
Empty the container of electrolyte.
Fill the container with water and start the pump by switching
O/Charge - l/Pump to bottom position to circulate water from the
electrolyte container through the pump system.
Due to graphite inclusions, electrolytic polishing is not ideal, but it is
satisfactory for "testing on the spot". The metallic structure develops
excellently and only the graphite appearance will be less successful.
Due to the softness of the graphite this may be helped by rubbing
the polished surface with a piece of wet cotton wool, perhaps with
AP-Alumina Suspension FF.
