Installing the Pump 1
Get the System Ready for the First Injection
When you are using the system for the first time after installation, best results 
are obtained by performing the following 3-step system preparation, in the 
order given below:
1 Manually priming the solvent channels.
2 Purging the pump.
Manually Priming the Solvent Channels
1 The degasser accessory kit contains a 20ml plastic syringe and a solvent 
tube adapter for this syringe. Push the adapter onto the syringe.
2 Pour the intended analytical solvents into the solvent bottles, and install 
the bottles on the desired solvent channels. Install Isopropanol on channels 
which will not be used right away. 
3 Put a paper towel over the leak sensor in the pump leak tray.
4 Disconnect the channel A solvent tube from the A1 port of the pump solvent 
selection valve. 
When opening capillary or tube fittings, solvents may leak. Please observe 
appropriate safety precautions (such as eye protection, safety gloves, protective 
clothing) as described in the material handling information and safety data sheet 
supplied by the solvent vendor, especially when hazardous solvents are used.
This procedure should be done before the modules are turned on.
Liquid may drip from the disconnected solvent tube. Make sure to follow appropriate 
safety precautions.
