INTERLOCK MECHANISM AND ADJUSTMENT

The door lock mechanism is a device which has been specially designed to completely eliminate microwave radiation when
the door is opened during operation, and thus to perfectly prevent the danger resulting from the leakage of microwave.

monitor switch to bring it under NO condition and presses the button of the secondary interlock switch to bring it under
ON condition.
