Flip Down Stand
The metal flip down stand beneath the front panel can be used to provide a better viewing angle.
Use the instrument with the flip down stand opened all the way.
Be sure to support the analyzer firmly with one hand when opening or closing the stand.
Note the following when using the flip down stand:
Use the analyzer on flat surfaces so that the weight of the analyzer is evenly distributed.
• Do not put any objects on the analyzer.
• Do not lean on the analyzer.
• Do not place anything under the analyzer.
• Do not slide the analyzer.
• Do not use excessive force when pressing keys.
• Do not use the analyzer on a slippery place.
• Do not use the wire flip down stand as a carry handle.
• Never drag the instrument or push it from behind when the flip down stand is opened because the
stand may close shut and jar the instrument..
Insert this end into the hole
(for both sides).
