er body. Align the mark on the turbine with the
mark on the atomizer body. Install the turbine
retaining ring and o-ring by hand. Use the
spanner wrench to tighten an additional 1/8-
1/4 turn. (Lightly lubricate O-ring with petrole-
um jelly.) Check centering of fluid tube. If flu-
id tube is centered, the turbine is fully seated.
If not, check tightness with spanner wrench. If
tube is not centered, again remove turbine and
check for causes, such as an O-ring fell off,
fiber optic not fully installed, foreign material
on seating surface, etc. Reinstall and recheck
tube centering.
