(Figure 1-1) the fan area on the back of the cabinet must be at least 4 inches
from the back wall or other obstruction. To maintain this dis-
tance, two 1/4-20 x 7 stand-off bolts are included in the parts
bag.
Screw the bolts in the threaded holes on the back of the
shaker cabinet (Figure 2-2 below). The bolts should be screwed
in by hand to the limit of the threads. Further tightening is
unnecessary. Put the protective rubber caps, also supplied in the
parts bag, over the heads of the bolts.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Shakers
Your equipment has been thoroughly tested and calibrated before shipment. Regular preventive maintenance is important to keep your unit function-
ing properly. The operator should perform routine cleaning and maintenance on a regular basis. For maximum performance and efficiency, it is rec-
ommended that the unit be checked and calibrated periodically by a qualified service technician.
The following is a condensed list of preventive maintenance requirements. See the specified section of the instruction manual for further details.
Thermo Forma has qualified service technicians, using NIST traceable instruments, available in many areas. For more information on Preventive
Maintenance or Extended Warranties, please contact us at the number below.
Cleaning and calibration adjustment intervals are dependent upon use, environmental conditions and accuracy required.
