Mounting The Ground Plate - Shimadzu IonFocus Instruction Manual

3.1.1 Mounting the Ground Plate

Check that the temperature of the DL, heat block, and interface heater has
fallen to 50 °C or lower before proceeding with the work.
The inside of the ionization unit and the area around the DL and heat block
reach high temperatures.
Turn the heater OFF from the LabSolutions before starting this work.
If you proceed with the work while the temperature is still high, you may
sustain burns.
Be sure to adjust the projection length of the ESI capillary to 0 mm or less.
If the ESI capillary projects at all, the tip of the capillary may stick into your
fingers during the work.
Contact with fingers may also reduce sensitivity.
