2. PERFORMING A TEST with SmartPro Finder I
Hold the jewelry or gemstone with one hand and the tester with other hand
(Fig.2.1)
. For proper
operation of the tester, the thumb and index finger must always be placed on the metal-plated
serrated part located on both sides of the tester at all times. Care should be taken when testing
mounted jewelry. User must ensure that the stones are securely mounted before conducting a test
as gap between stone an setting might lead to inaccurate reading.
Place the tip of the probe pen against the gemstone. Apply minimal pressure to fully depress the
tip into the probe pen for correct reading. This is to provide a steady and constant contact made
between the probe tip and the gemstone.
