bottom of a full box of sheath fluid. Secure the cap on the sheath
fluid box. Be sure to place the sheath fluid container so that the

SD system device reservoir is about 3/4 full it automatically
stops priming.

11. From the Maintenance tab, select Prime. During this prime
cycle, use a screwdriver to adjust the regulator on the front of the
Luminex SD (picture not shown). From the Diagnostic tab,
adjust it until the sheath pressure displayed on the System
Monitor reads the same as the sheath pressure you recorded in
step 4. The system should stabilize at this sheath pressure. The
air pressure should be the same as you recorded in step 4, within
0.1 psi.
