Instrument Mounting and Use
Place the instrument on a flat working surface capable of safely supporting the weight of

repeatability; thus, a sturdy working surface is required. A clearance of at least 3 inches
(8cm) around the instrument is required to assure optimal ventilation.
Power Switch Position
When installing the power cord the unit should be turned off. Look at the rear panel of
the instrument to check that the power switch is in the OFF position. A diagram of the
rear panel can be found in the Section Parts and Controls.
