The software guided workflow is also shown in the following table.

Step

Action

1

Carefully remove the syringe glass using the supplied tweezers.

2

Use the syringe glass removal tool if the plunger motion did not expose enough syringe
glass.

Clean the syringe glass

Clean the glass syringe occasionally by hand, as the instrument does not clean the entire
inner diameter of the glass syringe. If there is any blockages in the syringe, these should
be taken care of before cleaning using the supplied Cleaning Wire.
