Be safe, wear protective glasses. To separate the bottle at the score use a hot/cold water bath. heat a large container of

water on a hot plate or stove top until boiling. once water boils turn temperature down to a simmer. In another large

container, fill with water and ice. Both containers should be in close proximity to one another.

To run the score or separate the bottle, dip the bottle into the hot water bath until the water covers the score line. hold

approximately five seconds, then remove and quickly submerge bottle into the cold bath, hold for another 5 seconds. You

should be able to hear and see the score run. Continue the dipping process until bottle separates. This method produces a

nice smooth separation.

CAUTION: Bottle may separate at the score while in the hot or cold water containers. use tongs to remove the piece from

the container. A bottle that has been in the hot water will be very hot; do not touch and allow to cool. If after several dippings

the score does not run, use the enclosed tapper to finish separating the score. Follow all directions for using this

technique below.

Place light source

below bottle.

Do all tapping well below eye level. NEvER tap the score line directly at your face. The tapper provided in your kit is shaped

to work on most bottles; however, should it become necessary, you may easily bend the rod to fit the bottle. move the green

plastic triangle up or down on the tapper shaft until the tip of the tapper is positioned at the score line.

Insert the tapper into the bottle. once adjusted, lightly use it to tap the score line.

When you see the score run (it will look like a tiny crack along the score line), move

the tapper 1/8" in front of the run. Continue to tap along the score until the bottle

separates. Try not to tap behind the front point of the fracture, this will cause a

fissure that will run off and down the bottle (FIg. 1). Tapping too hard will cause

a fissure to run up (FIg. 2).
