the top of the Viewer. Slide the Octa-Slide 2
Bar into the Viewer and match the color of
the reaction to the color standards.

that may be harmful if misused. Read

cautions on individual containers

carefully. Not to be used by children

except under adult supervision

NOTE: The following metals interfere above these levels:
Zinc 2 ppm

PROCEDURE

1. Fill a test tube (0893) to the lower line with sample water.

2. Use 1.0 mL pipet (0372) to add 1.0 mL of *Hardness Buffer Reagent (4255).

3. Add 2 drops of *Metal Inhibitor (2785). Wait 1 minute.

4. Use 0.5 mL pipet (0369) to add 0.5 mL of *Manganese Indicator Reagent (3956).
Cap and mix. Wait 2 minutes.

5. Use 1.0 mL pipet (0354) to add 2.0 mL (two measures) of *Chloroform Reagent
(6203). Cap and mix vigorously for 30 seconds. Allow to stand until the two
layers separate.

6. Insert the Low Range Manganese Octa-Slide 2 Bar (3594-01) into the Octa-Slide 2
Viewer (1101).

7. Insert the test tube into Octa-Slide 2 Viewer (1101).

8. Match the color of the lower liquid layer with the standards. It may be necessary
to raise the tube to compare against the upper end of the bar. Record as ppm
Manganese.

9. Wash the tubes with soap and water after testing to prevent staining.
