Procedure10.1 Bring the upper clamp of the Bally Flexometer to itsuppermost position.10.2 Fold the test piece in half along its major axis with thefinished side toward
14、the middle.10.3 Insert the folded test piece in the top clamp, and tightenthe clamp.10.4 Fold the test piece around the top clamp and down.10.5 Lightly pinch the leather at the top clamp to removeslack and to position the downward fold vertically in thebottom clamp. Tighten the bottom clamp. A prope
