Filling the Unit

Follow these steps to fill the unit in preparation for use:
1.
Fill the water bath with tap water or oil so that
the liquid level is approximately 1 1/2 inches
(3/4 inch with 2 liter shallow model) from the top
of the tank when full anticipated load is placed
in bath.
2.
If a thermometer is used, use the clip provided
to hold the thermometer to the side of the bath.
Slide the O-ring on the thermometer to position
the thermometer to the proper depth.
3.
When closing the cover, place the thermometer
along the front edge. A notch along the front of
the cover clears the thermometer and clip with
the cover closed.
4.
For optimum results, the same fluid level should
be maintained throughout the operating period.
5.
If using water, algicide may be added to reduce
algae formation. Follow the instructions supplied
with the algicide.
