CAUTION
Take care not to pinch the wires that connect the coils to the MS pump.
Pinching a connecting wire can irreversibly damage the thin electrical wire housed
within the white insulating coating. The damage might not be apparent until you
attempt to run the MS pump.
Note
Ideally your Surveyor MS Pump Plus is located on a clean, accessible benchtop
where you can perform maintenance. If, however, your MS pump is located in an area
in which it is inappropriate or difficult to perform maintenance, remove the LDA
from the pump and place it on a clean, accessible benchtop before you disassemble it.
