5. If the slits are not horizontal, loosen the screw on the wheel and adjust it so that the slits
are horizontal in both end positions.
Adjusting the grid switch
Switch S1 (Fig. 29 / p. 53) on the detector table disables the high voltage when the grid is
in the turning point. If the switch is not adjusted correctly, the high voltage is active when
the grid is standing still.
To minimize this risk of the high voltage being active when the grid is standing still, the
high voltage should be disabled for as long as possible.
1. Move the grid to the left end position.
2. Loosen the three screws. It is now possible to adjust grid switch (S1) alongside the grid
(Fig. 29 / p. 53).
