Turn the lever horizontally to the left. Pre-adjust the pump bed to working position for liquid
transport with a hex-wrench. The correct position depends on the thickness of the transport tube
material.

The pump is set up correctly when the tube is squeezed between the pulleys without damaging
the tube.
