Lift the flip top until fully open.
Select enough tube length for the curve of the pump track. Place the tube
between the rotor rollers and the track, pressed against the pumphead inner
wall. The tube must not be twisted or stretched against the rollers.
Lower the flip top until it clicks into its fully closed position. The track closes
automatically and the tube is stretched correctly as it does so.
Click!
Switch off the pump before tube loading.
Check that the tube holders on both sides of the pumphead are correctly set for the
size of tube you are using.
