when heating the combustion furnace. This reduces the service life of the combustion
tube.

Avoid touching the cleaned combustion tube with your hands during filling. Wear
protective gloves.
¡
Only fill completely dried combustion tubes.
¡
Wipe off any finger marks with a cloth wetted with pure alcohol.
