Warning: To avoid personal contamination with biohazardous or toxic compounds, wear clean,
chemical-resistant, powder-free gloves when performing this procedure.
Warning: To avoid puncture injuries from the sharp calibration pin, use care when
removing it from and replacing it in the ion block.
Warning: To avoid burn injuries, exercise care when handling the components of the
source enclosure heated to high temperatures. Wait until the hot components have
sufficiently cooled before you handle them.
