Open the right-hand (drying chamber) lid, place the basket containing the washed parts in the drying
chamber, and close the lid. Allow the basket and parts to remain in the drying chamber for at least

Note: There is no harm in leaving parts to dry longer than the suggested minimum.

Weigh the fully dried parts on a 0.01g-resolution scale and use a scribe to mark the parts' masses on the

If the percentage mass loss is
too low
: The part still contains undissolved wax. Begin another wash cycle.
●
If the percentage mass loss is
sufficient
