Installing a sample compartment extension kit

Time needed: 10 minutes or less

Tools needed:

  • 4-in-1 tool (included with your instrument)
  • 5/32 inch hex wrench
  1. Remove any Smart Accessory, then disconnect any cables that are connected at the back of the sample compartment.

  2. Remove the stabilizer arm located on the top of the instrument at the back edge of the sample compartment.

Remove the cap on top of the stabilizer arm, then use the 4-in-1 tool with a Phillips bit installed to remove the stabilizer arm screw. Life the stabilizer arm off the instrument and save it (with its cap and screw) in a safe place for if you want to reinstall it later.

  1. Place the sample compartment extension on the front of the sample compartment. Make sure the pins in the same compartment base fit into the holes in the sample compartment extension.
