Lifting levers are used to overcome the very high clamping forces of the FHB magnets. To lift the FHB lid, press
down on the lifting lever first, and then lift the Lid. When closing an FHB Lid, make sure that the lever is in the
downward position: this will prevent the FHB lid from slamming down on the fiber, possibly damaging it. After the
lid comes to rest on its lifting lever cam, it can be closed gently by lifting the lever.
