Original instructions
Towel Catch Removal:
Although not normally required, the towel catch can be removed for cleaning,
inspection, etc.
Note: The work surface of the cabinet and the towel catch must be
thoroughly decontaminated before removing either.
1. Remove the work surface as described above.
2. Remove the towel catch by pivoting the bottom out toward you, as shown
in Figure 6-2; it is spring loaded, and you will feel some resistance. Note
the orientation of the towel catch.
3. Surface decontaminate the towel catch before removing it.
4. Reinstall the towel catch by sliding it back into position, in the correct
orientation. Also ensure that the Sampling/Decontamination Tube (the
black tube with an orange cap) rests behind the towel catch, allowing the
catch to contact the rear wall of the cabinet.
