Installing the flow manifold

3.
Secure the manifold in place using a Torx T-20 screw from the front of
the pneumatics chassis.
4.
Route the gas tubing over the top of the chassis and through the slots to
the detector location.
5.
Connect the ribbon cable to the mating connector on the pneumatics
board. Arrange the cable to keep it away from the valves and keep it
from being pinched between board components and the manifold.
For the back detector, you may want to loosen the manifold and slide it
out of the carrier a few centimeters to connect the cable to the
pneumatics board. Then, reinstall the manifold.
6.
Using a pair of needle-nosed pliers, remove the appropriate top rear
panel detector cutout for the TCD. Also remove any cutouts needed to
access other manifolds or accessories installed in the GC. See Figure 3.
