Settings and Adjustments
16. Adjust the perpendicularity of the column by turning the bars of the bottom ad-
justable arm assemblies. Repeat steps 14-16 until an optimum position has
been obtained.
17. Tighten the locking nuts and the fastening bolts of the four adjustable arm as-
semblies.
Settings at the Magazine 5.3.2
1. Raise the arm (ARO).
2. Move the arm towards the magazine (ARMA).
Caution:
Carefully follow the movement of the sample to prevent collisions with
any part of the cabinet or magnet.
3. Lower the arm (ARU) to the magazine belt.
4. Check the concentricity of the sample spinner and the sample holder on the
magazine belt. The concentricity can be adjusted by turning (rotating) the cab-
inet assembly around the column slightly.
The sample spinner should not rest on the sample holder, but should stop approx-
imately 5 mm over it (see Figure 5.4.
). The sample has to fall into the sample
holder when the pincher opens. If necessary adjust the cabinet vertical position.
Adjustment of the Tension of the Magazine Belt 5.3.3
The adjustment mechanism under the right carrousel wheel (Figure 5.6.
) is used
for adjusting the tension of the magazine belt. The tension should be increased
only when the belt, when filled with samples, hangs more than 5 to 8 mm under
the wheel line of the space between the two carrousel wheels.
Caution:
Excessive tension will damage the belt and wheel bearings.
