1 Connecting coupling

Fasten the coupling (14-2) with a pressure screw (14-1) on the pump
head inlet capillary (13-7).

2 Connecting eluent aspiration tubing

Caution

The clamping screws must be tightened carefully. To tighten, grip
the coupling (14-2) with the key (6.2739.000) and grip the clamp-
ing screw (14-3) with the wrench (6.2621.050).

3.9.2

Deaerating the high pressure pump

The high pressure pump will only operate perfectly if the pump head con-
tains no more air bubbles. Therefore it must be deaerated during initial
start-up and after every change of eluent.

Caution

The high pressure pump must not be deaerated before the initial start-
up (see Chapter 4.1, page 50).

Deaerate the high pressure pump as follows (see Figure 15, page 31):

Deaerate the high pressure pump

The instrument must be connected to the PC and switched on to deaerate
the high pressure pump.
