Operating Manual
Follow these steps
1. Push all tubing and capillaries, which are present in the tubing chase
of the Vanquish system modules, into the tubing chase. Otherwise,
you will not be able to insert the slide-in module properly into the
enclosure in the next step.
2. On the slide-in module, check that you can move the captive screws
back and forth with your fingers. If you cannot, screw them in until
you can.
3. Insert the slide-in module in the enclosure. The following steps
require a team effort:
a) Take the slide-in module on both sides from below.
b) Lift the slide-in module to the height of the enclosure.
c) Place the slide-in module in the enclosure so that the module
sits in the enclosure by approximately 25 cm.
d) Push the slide-in module onto the rails and into the enclosure
until the slide-in module sits completely in the enclosure.

4. To facilitate tightening the slide-in module in the enclosure, pull out
the module a few millimeters (approximately 2 to 5 mm).
5. With the screwdriver, move each captive screw back and forth while
pressing inward until the screw slips into the thread.
6. Push the slide-in module back into the enclosure as far as it goes in.
7. Gradually and evenly, tighten the four captive screws on the slide-in
module hand-tight.
