PLEASE NOTE: IJ series electrodes are
shipped without sleeve electrolyte and must be
filled prior to use.
1) Hold the electrode by the sleeve and gently
ease the rubber wetting cap off the sleeve.
2) Hold the electrode body just above the
sleeve and remove the sleeve by gently
rotating and pulling along the axis of the
electrode (see Figure 2). DO NOT BEND!
3) Invert the electrode. Fill the annular space
(see Figure 3) with electrolyte (see 4.5.3
Sleeve Electrolytes ).
4) Slide the sleeve back on the electrode and
push home until the black O-ring is properly
seated. DO NOT EXERT A SIDEWAYS
FORCE WHICH MAY FRACTURE THE
STEM! Excess electrolyte will be expelled
