and set the trim panel aside.
6. Remove the right side panel of the ASE 100:
a. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws on the inner
front panel, near the needle assembly (see Figure 5-5).
b. Insert a screwdriver into the hole located beneath the top screw
hole (see Figure 5-5). Push the screwdriver in until the right side
panel slides back about 1/2 inch. To prevent scratches or other
damage to the panel, do not let the panel fall onto the
workbench.
c. Remove the right side panel from the system and set it aside.
7. Using a 1/4-inch open-end wrench, disconnect the stainless steel fitting on the
right side of the static valve (see Figure 5-8).
8. The needle assembly is secured to the inner front panel. The source needle
assembly is on the right side of the needle block (see Figure 5-9). Disconnect
the 1/4-inch stainless steel fitting (part of the source needle assembly) from
the needle block.
