Replacing the Source Block Assembly 

The starting point for this procedure is the source block assembly removed 
from the MSQ.

Push the source block assembly (P/N FM102573) into place in the 
source block enclosure and tighten the thumbscrews on the source 
block. 
Replace the cone wash nozzle (P/N FM102521). 
Replace the entrance cone assembly (P/N FM103412) and turn 
counterclockwise. 
Turn the locking plate clockwise to the open position and insert the ESI 
probe assembly (P/N FM102595) or APCI probe assembly (P/N 
FM102587). 
Turn the locking plate counterclockwise into the closed position. 
Screw the PEEK fitting finger-tight into the ESI probe assembly (P/N 
FM102595) or APCI probe assembly (P/N FM102587).
