12 Close and latch the analyzer cover.
13 Remove the RIS lower cover, front left panel, and front side panel. See “To
Access the Left Side Lifting Handle” on page 86. This uncovers the handles
on the left side of the instrument.
The MS can now be stored or moved. The MS requires three people for lifting.
One for the left side lifting handles, one for the right side lifting handles, and
one for the back side lifting handles.
Do not overtighten the side plate thumbscrews. Overtightening will strip the threads in
the analyzer chamber. It will also warp the side plate and cause leaks.

The MS must remain upright at all times. If you need to ship your MS to another
location, contact your Agilent Technologies service representative for advice about
packing and shipping.
