To remove an O-ring
Use the tools as aids to pull the O-ring or seal from its groove.
Tip: If the O-ring or seal is not going to be reused, you can use the forked end
of tool 1 to impale the O-ring or seal, and aid its removal.

Using a soft cloth, dampened with water, clean the outside surfaces of the
mass spectrometer.
Caution: When removing an O-ring or seal from a component, be careful
not to scratch the component with the removal tool.
