Place the cover on each mold, with slotted side down (pin in plate goes through matched hole in mold).
OPERATION 2. Program the desired schedule into the controller (see Section 1: Controller Setup) Starting a Test 1. Press the F1 button (Automatic / Manual Mode Toggle) to place controller in auto mode. 2. Press the F2 button (Program Run / Reset) to start the program. 3.
SECTION 2 – OPERATION Emptying the Cylinder of Water 1. Open the pressure release valve and turn off the water supply valve. 2. Open air-to-cylinder valve. After water has drained from the cylinder, as indicated by air coming out of the drain, close the air-to-cylinder valve. 3.
MAINTENANCE Cleaning and Service Tips Before each test, cement and other foreign matter should be cleaned off the plug and cylinder threads, the threads should be wiped dry, and the threads and seal ring should be lubricated with "Liqui-Moly" or similar high-temperature lubricant. The factory application of “Xylan" and the technician's application of lubricant before each test enable effortless cylinder-plug removal, even after most severe high-temperature testing.
