• Check your solvent height. For best shimming homogeneity, the sample height should be 5 cm.
• Wipe the exterior of the tube clean using a Kimwipe.
• If present, remove the cap from the top of the magnet bore.
• Type "ej" in the command line at the bottom of the screen to turn the lift on.
• Use the depth gauge to adjust the spinner height on the tube.
• Carefully place your sample into the bore. Make sure air flow is on before releasing sample!
• Type "ij" to turn off the lift.
