| Operation |
| First time use/setup |
| 1) |
Remove the four knurled knobs, the cover and the sight glass |
| 2) |
Fill the chamber with distilled water about half way |
| 3) |
Screw in (tighten) the pressure wheel fully until it stops to expel air from the system |
| 4) |
Unscrew (loosen) the pressure knob fully |
| 5) |
Repeat steps 3 & 4 to ensure that all air is expelled from the system |

Pressure Testing A Watch |
| 1) |
Insert the watch in the pressure chamber. |
| 2) |
Unscrew/retract the pressure wheel completely until it stops. |
| 3) |
Using the supplied water bottle fully fill the pressure chamber to the lip of the top with distilled water. |
| 4) |
Replace the sight glass eliminating as much of the air as possible. Tilting the chamber slightly to the left while installing the site glass may aid in eliminating the air from the chamber. Replace top and the four knurled knobs. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE KNOBS, as they will be difficult to remove after the pressure test. Tighten the knobs gently but evenly. |
| 5) |
Tighten (clockwise) the pressure wheel to the required test pressure |
| 6) |
After the required test time period, release the pressure by unscrewing the pressure wheel until the gauge reads "0". |
| 7) |
Remove the four knurled knobs, the cover and the sight glass. If the sight glass is difficult to remove, apply slight pressure to the system by turning the pressure wheel clockwise until the glass is free. |
| 8) |
Remove the water using the water bottle (by drawing the water up into the bottle). |
| 9) |
Remove the watch from the tester. |
| 10) |
Warm the watch using your preferred method and apply a drop of cold water to the center of the crystal to check for condensation inside the watch, per standard industry practice. |
