Step
Place the lower bed support on top of the liquid distributor and fix this into
place with a new bed support seal. The bed support seal also covers the
O-ring in the upper groove of the bottom end plate.
Tip:
Warming the seal in warm water (50°C) will make it more pliable and easier
to mount onto the bottom end plate.
