Introduction

4. Replace the original screws in

Explorer's case.

5. Tighten the screws down to ensure the Explorer case is securely closed.

Do not over tighten these screws.

Connecting the Filter to the Telescoping Sample Probe

You can install a filter on the end of the probe to ensure liquids and solid materials
are not aspirated into the telescoping sample probe and then to the instrument.

1. The filter connector (MX380340) connects the filter to the inlet tubing of the

probe. The connector has a 3/16” port for the inlet tubing of the probe and a
1/4” port for the filter. Press the inlet tubing of the probe into the connector
until it is locked in place.

2. Press the narrower end of the filter into the other end of the connector until the

filter is locked in place.

Replacing the Filter

The filter will remove airborne particulates for up to 4 hours. The operating
environment will determine the exact time. The pump will sound labored when the
filter requires replacement.

1. Press the narrow collar on the connector in, toward the connector.

This will release the filter. If you cannot depress the collar with your finger
then use the multi-tool to depress the collar.

2. Remove the used filter.
