1). Place the top ring upside down on the sample prep table and clip it in by pressing the button on the side. Take care not to scratch the center platform.
2). Mound the powder up slightly in a conical shape.
3.) Press it down with the cylindrical press.
4.) Scrape off the excess with a blade or glass slide.
5.) Brush away excess powder to that the outer ring is clean for attaching the sample holder base.
6.) Press and clip the sample holder base into the top ring. It should snap in cleanly and easily.
7.) Turn the entire sample prep table upside down, resting the sample holder base on the countertop, and press the release button on the side to release the completed sample holder. Sample surface should be flat and flush with the edge of the holder.


Tips:

If the powder sticks to the sample table when you flip it upside down to release, try it again with a piece of weighing paper placed on top of the platform and then clip the top ring in.

If you don’t have enough power to fill the sample holder, after pressing down with the cylindrical press add one of the cardboard spacers and then clip in the holder base.
