CAUTION: The most fragile parts of a CryoProbe are:
- sample cavity
Avoid fast dropping of samples with the sample lift.
Do not introduce any objects into the cavity (not even a soft cotton bud!).
Due to manufacturing processes it is not possible to clean the sample cavi-
ty with strong solvents.
See "Cleaning the sample cavity" on page 67
for further information.
- probe tube and its joint to the body
Do not hold the CryoProbe at its tube. Support and carry the CryoProbe
only at its body. Do not bend the tube.
- CryoCoupler
Do not force the CryoCoupler into position.
- connectors
Do not bend the connectors for vacuum, RF, sensors, or gas.
