9. Inspect device
Remove all devices from the washing tray.
Remove the seal nipple on the machine’s air inlet and from
the Double Air Hose, inspect the cannulations, sliding
sleeves, etc. for visible soil. If necessary, repeat the manual
pre-cleaning/automated cleaning cycle. Confirm that all parts
are completely dry.
Precaution:
Mechanical cleaning is an additional stress for
power equipment, especially for seals and bearings. There-
fore, devices must be properly lubricated after automated
cleaning.
Furthermore, the device must be serviced at least once per
year as specified under the section “Repairs and Technical
Services” on page 38.
