Check the solvent levels, draw fresh solvent through the solvent system, and flush air out of
the solvent system on a daily basis.
CAUTION When working with solvents, wear safety glasses and safety gloves. Make sure
that the gloves are compatible with the solvents you are using.
When working with volatile hazardous chemicals, use an appropriate fume hood.
CAUTION Use only LC/MS-grade solvents with the EASY-nLC instrument. Using
HPLC-grade solvents and water from laboratory purification systems causes system
blockages and poor spray stability.
