SHAVER SYSTEM
7. ADAPTER DUcT - PNEUMATIc coNTRoL
The pneumatic control controls the pump’s suction and flow rate.
The adapter duct is optionally supplied with two cannulas which are attached to the handgrip by a threaded fitting. If
necessary, the cannula can even be changed during the operation.
The suction-irrigation duct is able to rotate in relation to the manual control. Once the cannula/instrument has been
inserted, the suction-irrigation duct automatically finds a position that avoids kinking the tube. This ensures constant
availability of the full suction-irrigation capacity.
The manual control can be separated from the adapter duct, which enables the pump system to be controlled by an
assistant.
The double-lumen control tube must be connected between the device and the manual control.
There are blue and red color-coded control connectors on the manual control and on the front of the device.
Connect the blue-coded control tube to the blue-coded control connector and the red-coded tube to the red-coded
connector.
The manual control is fitted with two buttons. The blue button activates the irrigation function, the red button the suction
function.
The irrigation and suction rates are proportional to the pressure applied to the buttons, enabling a fine degree of control.
Pressing both buttons simultaneously has no effect.

As an alternative to the pneumatic manual control, it is also possible to operate the pump using the pneumatic double
footswitch.
The two control lines must be connected between the device and the pneumatic double footswitch. There are blue and
red color-coded control connectors on the rear of the double footswitch and on the front of the device. Connect the blue-
coded control line to the blue-coded control connector and the redcoded line to the red-coded connector.
The double footswitch is equipped with a left and a right footswitch. The left switch activates the irrigation function, the red
switch the suction function. The irrigation and suction rates are proportional to the pressure applied to the footswitches,
enabling a fine degree of control. Pressing both footswitches simultaneously has no effect.
