plastic film and duct tape.
4. Remove the work surface after it has been surface decontaminated.
5. Remove the front grille.
6. Place the work surface and the grille into the work area for decontamination.
7. Remove the front dress panel.
8. Remove the sash stop bracket, located near the top of the blower plenum cover.

Supply HEPA Filter shelf.
10. Using flexible plastic sheet 5-8 mil thick and duct tape seal the perimeter of the
front opening.

Note: DO NOT attempt to remove the brackets that secure the exhaust filter cover;
they are needed to maintain rigidity on the top of the chassis.
