POLISHING PROCEDURE

When all of the polishing preparations have been made, ferrule polishing can begin.

4.1 MOUNTING THE FERRULES

V-grove

Ferrule

Clamping screw

Holding jig

Step 1 Place the setup stand on a desk or table and put the holding jig onto the setup stand, fitting the hole in the holding jig onto the pin on the setup stand.

Step 2 Loosen the clamping screws on the holding jig, turning about 3 turns using the ball- end hex wrench.

Step 3 Place the ferrules into the V- grooves in the holding jig. See Figure 4-1 for where to place the ferrules to have a balanced pattern.

Step 4 On each side of the holding jig, tighten the clamping screw with the ball-end hex wrench while lightly pushing the flange on the ferrules against the holding jig.

NOTE

To tighten the clamping screws with the appropriate tightness, tighten finger tight, then use the ball-end hex wrench to tighten one quarter turn more.
