7.13 Re-fitting the Ion Source
Re-fitting the ion source is simply the reversal of removing it.
1. Position the ion source in the correct orientation above the analyser and then fit
the three wires into the three barrel connectors on the various plates which make
up the ion source. This is quite difficult and requires patience, so, take your time.
2. When the ion source is in place tighten the two socket set (Allen) screws in the
source-mounting collar.
3. Tighten the screws in the three barrel connectors.
4. Re-fit the filament assembly by following the instructions on Page 32.
