Fitting The Extraction Cone To The Ion Block - Waters SYNAPT G2 Operator's, Overview And Maintenance Manual

3. Carefully remove the extraction cone from the vessel, and blow-dry it
using inert, oil-free gas.
4. Inspect the extraction cone for persisting contamination. If
contamination is present, do as follows:
a. Using the wash bottle containing 1:1 methanol/water, rinse the
extraction cone over the large beaker.
b. Blow-dry the extraction cone with inert, oil-free gas.
5. Inspect the extraction cone for persisting contamination.
Requirement:
procedure. If contamination is still present, dispose of the extraction
cone, and obtain a new one.
