Inspection and Function Test
All movable parts should be moving smoothly. Check that
no residuals parts prevent this.
Check the triggers in the handpiece and mode switch for
smooth operation and function. Confirm that the triggers
in the handpiece are not blocked and move freely when
pressing on them.
Check the all devices (e.g. sterile cover, washing basket,
etc.) for cracks, broken off parts and deformations.
Perform function tests using a fully operational device, i.e.
the Power Unit connected to the handpiece.
Do not use damaged, worn or corroded devices but
return them to the DePuy Synthes Service Center.
Failing to follow these instructions may lead to damage
and malfunction, increasing the risk of harm to the user
and patient.
For further information on the inspection and function
test, please refer to the UNIUM Care and Maintenance
Poster.
▲ WARNINGS:
•
Visually inspect for damage and wear (e.g. un-
recognizable markings, missing or removed part
numbers, corrosion, etc.) to ensure the device has not
reached its end of life.
•
Check the coupling head of the handpiece and
the locking sleeves of the attachments for smooth
operation, and check for proper function with cutting
tools.
•
Check attachments and cuttings tools for correct
adjustment and functionality prior to every use.
