4.4 Probe maintenance
►
Probe is an expensive part and frangible. Never hit it or drop it on floor.
►
Please use medical ultrasound gel during diagnoses. Do daily inspection on the probe enclosure to see if it is cracked
and avoid liquid leakage to spoil the built-in components
►
Check the probe regularly to see if it is filled with clean medical castor oil lest the existing air bubbles influence the
image quality. If air bubbles appear, turn the probe oil filler hole up and screw off the sealing screw, turn the probe
slowly to drive the air bubbles to the screw hole, infuse a little bit of castor oil into the screw hole with syringe with a
needle (refer to Picture 6-1), vent the air bubbles and fasten the sealing screw and finally clean the oil stain on the
probe surface.
