Keep the control panel clean and dry. Fluids on the panel can seep in and
around electrical components and cause damage. When running a test,
check to make sure that liquid is not being thrown out of the cup and onto the
display panel. This becomes particularly important when running an EP Test
at 1,000 rpm.
Periodically remove the belt guard and check the belt tension. Ensure there is
sufcient tightness so that when the motor is stalled, the belt will not slip.
To increase the belt tension:
1. Loosen the motor mount bolts on the back of the unit.
2. Slide the motor towards the torque adjust handle.
3. Retighten the mounting bolts.
4. Reinstall the belt guard.
