Securing objects
Polishing only works on clean, oxide-
free metal objects. If necessary, blast
objects prior to polishing.
Only use the electrolyte-resistant object
holder included with the unit! Copper
object holders wear down during
polishing and produce sediment, which
impedes the magnetic stirring process.
To protect against severe wear during
glossing, the tips of the clamps should
be covered with masking lacquer.
• One or two objects may be secured and polished
simultaneously.
• Securing the polishing object to the object holder:
use the retentions to hang it on the hook, or
secure the base with the crocodile clip.
• Insert the object holder into the unit and tighten
the screws. Please ensure that:
- the object is fully immersed in Wirolyt.
(The springs of the crocodile clip are not
permanently electrolyte-resistant and should
therefore not be immersed.)
- sufficient space remains at the bottom of the
polishing bath for the magnetic stirrer.
- the base surfaces of the polishing objects must
be aligned parallel to the longitudinal sides of
the bath. Exposed clasp tips must never point
directly towards the cathode, as this would
cause too much material to be removed from
them!
- object and cathode must not touch each other
(error message E 10).
