3 Connect the line cord into the AC inlet located on the generator’s rear panel and into an
appropriately-grounded outlet. If the power cord is wrapped around the cart handle, it must be
completely removed from the cart handle prior to plugging it into the power outlet.
Warning: Verify that the outlet voltage correctly corresponds to the generator’s requirements (Refer
to Chapter 14 – System Specifications). Connection to an improper power supply may result in
damage to the generator and risk of shock or fire hazard.
Caution : Do not connect the H
ARMONIC
™ Generator 300 System to an ungrounded outlet.
Grounding reliability can only be achieved when this equipment is connected to a hospital-grade
receptacle.
4 a. Attach the foot switch cable to the foot switch:
Note: Although installation of the foot switch is optional when using the hand switching adaptor,
installing the foot switch is recommended in case its use is needed during the procedure.
• Confirm that the connector and receptacle are dry and clean.
• Orient the slot on the foot switch cable’s larger connector at 12 o’clock.
• Seat the connector in the foot switch receptacle.
• Turn the connector collar clockwise until tight. Ensure the collar is finger-tight to prevent
inadvertent activation that may result from fluid ingress.
b . Connect the foot switch cable’s smaller connector to the foot switch receptacle on the rear panel
of the generator.
• Confirm that the connector and receptacle are dry and clean.
• Align the red dot on the foot switch 4-pin connector with the red dot on the 4-pin receptacle
on the generator back panel.
Note: The generator has two identical foot switch receptacles. If one foot switch is used, either
receptacle may be used.
Repeat steps 4a and 4b if a second foot switch will be used.
5 Connect the instrument and adaptor (or hand switching adaptor), if required, to the hand piece
following instructions in their package inserts.
Note: The hand switching adaptor must be at room temperature to function properly. Do not
immerse in water to cool rapidly. After steam sterilization, allow hand switching adaptor to air cool
for at least 15 minutes prior to use.
6 Connect the hand piece connector to the receptacle on the front panel. Align the white dot on the
connector with the white dot on the generator. Ensure the hand piece connector is clean and dry
before connecting the hand piece to the generator. Fully insert the hand piece connector to assure
complete, proper connection to the generator. (To disconnect the hand piece, firmly grasp the
connector and pull the connector away from the generator.)
