5. Switch the SPE control dial to High Flow .
6. Turn the high flow adjustment knob
clockwise until the desired flow rate is
achieved.
7. When the solvent levels decrease to
2 mm above the fastest eluting cartridge
of any one of the SPE cartridge/s, quickly
switch the SPE control dial to Low Flow .
8. Turn the low flow adjustment knob clockwise until the flow slowly
restarts.
9. When the solvent levels lower to the top frits of all of the SPE cartridges,
quickly switch the SPE control dial to Off . Allow the solvent to return to

In some cases, positive pressure can remain in the
SPE cartridges, even after the SPE control dial has been set
to Off. Unseat the manifold to stop unwanted flow.
