Setting up the instrument

4.7 Leveling the instrument

•

Once all accessories are installed (don’t forget the rear panel!), move
the instrument to its final position.

•

Prior to leveling the instrument, check whether the bench surface of
the laboratory bench where the instrument will be installed is flat and
exactly horizontal.

•

Otherwise, use the box level (standard delivery) to determine the high-
est point of the bench. Next, the instrument foot located at the highest
point of the bench must be screwed in almost completely (

see Fig. 21

).

- Then level the instrument adjusting each foot as needed.
