Quick Reference Guide
The surface must be plane ground, e.g. with a Transpol
apparatus.
Choose the correct electrolyte for the test material.
Pour the electrolyte into the electrolyte container. The liquid level
must be between the minimum and maximum marks.
Place the pump part in the container.
Lower the entire pump-container assembly into the cabinet part.
Press on the top part until the assembly locks.
Insert the multi plug in the socket on the front plate and tighten
the nut.
Adjust the two voltages on the scale to a voltage corresponding
to the desired amperage.
Adjust polishing and etching time.
Switch on the pump.
Take the pencil from the pencil holder.
Press the pencil against the prepared surface of the test piece,
ensuring that the polishing chamber is in total contact with the
surface.
Keep the pencil perpendicular (at a 90º angle) to the surface
during the whole process. The electrolyte starts to circulate.
Take care that no air is drawn in around the periphery of the
polishing chamber.
Press the start button and the process (polishing/etching) will
begin.
Only press the start button, when the noise from the pump indicates that the
flow through the pencil is constant.
