7 Commissioning the unit
7.1 Before starting work
Before starting surgery, the HBS x-touch 200i electrosurgical unit is connected via the supply cable to
the mains socket with PE conductor. The current cable may only be attached or removed when the
device is switched off. The connecting socket for the power cable is located at the back of the
housing.
Connect foot switch, the terminal is located at the back of the housing.
Handles and electrodes are connected correspondingly at the front of the housing to "MONOPOLAR"
or "BIPOLAR".
7.2 Switching on
The system is switched on by actuating the main switch (ON/OFF). However, high-frequency current
only flows once a button is activated at the handle or foot switch.
Consequently, accessories can also be connected to the unit when it is switched on.
However, extreme care should always be taken when doing so!
Before first using the electrosurgical unit, we recommend
familiarizing employees with the operating characteristics of the
different operating modes and power settings by carrying out
practice exercises using fresh meat (beef, pork).
!
When using an electrosurgical unit which produces HF current, always
be aware of two fundamental principles:

Current flows through everything located between the active
and the neutral electrode (monopolar)
!
Always ensure that the system is not inadvertently activated
during installation by pressing the foot switch or the button in
the handle.
