Disassemble Lead Glass Module
Step 1: Inspect lead glass module (see corresponding section) to make sure the the module
has to be disassembled.
Step 2. Loose screws on the flange attached to the PMT housing
Step 3. Remove steel strap assembly holding together the PMT housing and lead glass block
Step 4. Remove silicon cookie (note the cookie may stick to the glass block; use a wood stick to scrub if needed)
