With regard to training, given the information contained in the user manual and since it is easy to understand the said device, it doesn’t appear to be necessary. The device must be checked before each use in order to detect malfunctions and / or damage caused by transport and / or storage. Always check the integrity of the footswitch power cord. Connect cable to electrical network and turn switch on. Close the aspiration outlet with your finger and with suction regulator in maximum vacuum position check that the vacuum indicators reaches -90 kPa (-0.90 bar) maximum. Rotate the knob from right to left and check the aspiration regulating control. The vacuum indicator should go down -40 kPa (-0.40 bar). Verify that loud noises are not present, these can indicate wrong functioning. A protection fuses (F 1 x 6.3A L 250V) reachable from exterior and situated in the plug protects the instrument. For fuses replacing, always the type and the range. Before changing the fuse, disconnect the plug from the power supply socket. Internally, the device (only for devices fitted with a circuit board) is protected by a fuse (F 500mA L 250V) that cannot be reached from the outside, so please contact a technician authorized by the manufacturer for its replacement.

INSTRUCTIONS

• The working position must be such as to allow one to reach the control panel and to have a good view of the empty indicator, the jar and the antibacterial filter.
• If the device is to be transported from one place to another, to prevent the liquid collection jar from falling and consequently the liquid from spilling, removing the jar from the device is recommended.

WARNING: For proper use, place the aspirator on a flat, stable surface in order to have the full volume of use of the jar and better efficiency of the overflow device. The vacuum jar, during use, must be used in vertical mode, to prevent the action of the backflow valve. If this protection is triggered, turn the device off and disconnect the pipe connected to the vacuum jar (indicated with the word VACUUM) on its cover.

• Connect the short silicone tube to the antibacterial filter connector (check the filter assembly photo) while the other end must be connected to the safety trap “IN” nozzle using a short silicone tube.

SAFETY TRAP: The two connections on the sides of the bar can be used to insert a safety trap in the BASIC and FS versions and two traps in the FULL version. The safety trap is an additional protection for the overflow valve of the vessel. In the event that the liquid goes beyond the overflow valve during the suction process, the trap collects the liquid thus protecting the antibacterial filter and the internal motor.

• Connect the remaining short silicone tube to the safety trap “OUT” nozzle, while the other end must be connected to the vessel cover nozzle bearing the word “VACUUM”, which is fitted internally with the float (overflow device). When the 90% of the volume of the jar is reached there is the activation of the security float (the float close the aspiration connector on the jar) to avoid liquid penetration inside the device.

WARNING: Ensure that the filter is fitted with the Arrows at the patient sid

WARNING : The inside of the medical device must be regularly checked for the presence of liquids or other visible contamination (secretions). If liquids or other visible contamination are present, the medical device must be replaced immediately due to the risk of insufficient vacuum flow. These products have been designed, tested and manufactured exclusively for “single use” and for a period of use not exceeding 24 hours unless stated below.

• Connect the long silicon tube with the lid union still free and marked as “PATIENT”.
• Connect the conical junction for probe insertion with the free end of the long silicon tube.
• Insert the plug of the equipment feeding cable into a power socket.
• Press the ON/OFF button to start the medical equipment.
• To deal with foam formation within the tank, unscrew the tank lid and fill 1/3 of the tank with water (to make cleaning easier and speed up depression while operating the equipment), place the lid on the jar.
• While using the equipment, the suction tank should always be used vertically to avoid the intervention of the antireflux valve. In case of intervention of this protection, switch the device off and disconnect the tube connected with the suction tank (the one marked as “VACUUM”) on the same lid.
• You can then detach all accessories and perform cleaning operations as described under “Cleaning accessories and internal parts” below

WARNING: The power supply cable plug is the element of separation from the electrical mains system: even if the units equipped with a special on / off switch button, the power supply plug must be kept accessible once the device is in use so as to allow a further method of disconnection from the mains supply system.

Using FLOVAC® disposable collection system: Before connecting the disposable collection system, remove the blu ring fitted on the tank holder for a more comfortable insertion of the same container.

• After opening the package, fully stretch the bag and then flatten it concentrically to eliminate as much air as possible.
• Insert the bag and apply the cover to an appropriately sized reusable rigid container by pressing firmly around the entire perimeter. Make sure that the system is completely sealed.
• Close the connector marked as “TANDEM” with the lid provided.
• Connect the power source of the vacuum to the VACUUM port equipped with specific reusable conical fitting with “male” connection.
• Connect the patient tube to the PATIENT port of the cover
• Before use, check all closures and make sure there are no leaks, starting the aspiration source. If the bag expands to fully adhere to the walls of the rigid container and the cover bends towards the inside of the glass, the system is not leaking.
• Start the aspiration and periodically check the filling level of the container. The overflow valve will cause the interruption of aspiration if the aspirated fluids have reached the maximum filling level of the device.
• When the float valve intervenes signalling the device is too full, the suction source must be disconnected within no more than 5 minutes.
• Warning: The accidental inversion of connections may cause contamination for the operator and/or for the vacuum generation equipment.
