Storage and Transportation

Instrument

1. With the test station plugged, open the reservoir valve and turn capstan fully in, close
reservoir valve.
2. Remove spokes from capstan hub, and store in tool-roll.
3. Remove screw-in handle from pump arm, and store in tool-roll.
4. If fluid is to remain in the reservoir, ensure that the tester is kept level at all times to
avoid spills. If not, drain the reservoir as described in Chapter 6, Reservoir Assembly.
5. Refit instrument lid, ensuring that the hinges are correctly engaged, and secure with
toggle clips at the sides.

Weights

1. Starting with the largest increments first, stack all appropriate weights in the wooden
weight case.
2. Pass the threaded rod of the weight clamp assembly down through the center of the
weight stack, and locate in the base of the weight box.
3. Secure the weights by screwing the clamp assembly in clockwise, ensuring that the
stepped rim of the clamping disc locates correctly in the center of the weight stack.
4. Close lid and secure with catches at front.
The weight set is HEAVY (can be up to 80 lbs/36 kg per
individual box) so care must be taken when moving it. Both
handles must be used when lifting the set for stability, and we
recommend that it be carried between two people.
