SECTION V - CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEAN VACUUM SYSTEM LINES
Clean the vacuum lines daily. Just before turning off the vacuum, rinse lines first with hot water–approximately one (1)
quart through each high-volume line and a few ounces through each saliva ejector line. Then aspirate a few ounces
of dental vacuum line cleaner through each vacuum line. SlugBuster
TM
vacuum line cleaner is highly recommended.
Cleaner should have these qualities: non-foaming, deodorizing, sanitizing and pH between 6 and 10.
CAUTION
IMPORTANT: Use of line cleaners outside of the pH range will void the warranty.
Foam may cause a damage to the pump. Avoid interruptions by ensuring your cleaner is truly non-foaming. Test
by shaking the mixed solution. True non-foamers will be bubble-free.
Cleaning requirements will vary according to activity. After surgical procedures, aspirate a few ounces of vacuum line
cleaner through the lines. For overhead plumbing, be sure to allow air to follow liquids before closing vacuum valves.
Check the treatment room solids separator routinely, and clean when dirty.
