Preparation for commissioning
• Before the hf Surg device is put into operation, it should be held at room temperature for a longer time (min. 30 minutes) to avoid the
formation of condensation.
Commissioning
1. Insert the device plug on the back into the corresponding socket (n° 2) and the power plug into the power socket and con-
nect the pedal switch (n° 3). Push the main switch (n° 1) of the device to the right, and one of the small yellow lamps on the
front (n° 5 or 6) will turn on. Now, the device is ready for operation.
The small lamps in the yellow labeling field show the selected wave type:
yellow light above (n° 5) – cutting shaft
yellow light below [n° 6) – cutting/coagulation shaft
By pushing the switch (n° 4), the wave type can be selected.
2. On the front part, connect the handpiece to the yellow socket
3. Connect the neutral electrode to the socket provided for that purpose (n° 3).
4. Put the desired electrode on the handpiece.
5. Check the intensity regulator (n° 1) and adjust it if required.
6. Activate the pedal switch, the pure tone typical of the set wave type can be heard.
Important notice:
Always activate the electrode by pushing the pedal switch before touching the tissue when you want to cut or cut/coagulate.
Lockout after use
1. Place the hand piece into the instrument holder
2. Remove the electrode and reprocess it accordingly
3. Switch off the device to position 0, using main switch 1 (back).
Covering:
Visual check of the unit and accessories - Check according to IEC 62353
- Protective earth resistance
- Alternate leakage current
- Alternate patient leakage current
Function check
- Main switch
- Switch CUT - CUT/COG with LEDs
- Uniformity of performance throughout the range of adjustment*
Measurement of radio frequency (HF) output power at a load of 1 kΩ:
- Output CUT (50W)
- Output COAG (45W)
All results of measurements must be documented according to DIN EN ISO 62353 concerning the first measured values.
If defects occur during the controls, the user is responsible to initiate repair.
* Note for the user: the sound that can be heard during the operation of the HF changes its tone color with the operating mode (CUT or
CUT/COAG), and the volume with the power setting. It is recommended that the user should check the regularity of the power output
once in a while by turning the power knob from minimum to maximum with activated output and simul taneously checks if the signal
has any dropouts. When changing the operating mode, the tone color must change a little bit. If dropouts or no difference between
CUT and CUT/COAG can be heard, the device must be sent to the maintenance service.
