Checklist
Always check the following points before surgery (without the patient!):
Note:
After switching on, the ceiling mount (floor stand) automatically performs
a self-test which takes approx. five seconds. A short beep indicates the
completion of the self-test.
The ceiling mount (floor stand) is equipped either with halogen or xenon
illumination.
Halogen illumination
– The halogen illumination has been switched on and the green indica-
tor lamp(s) is (are) lit.
– The halogen lamps including the backup lamps are intact, i.e. the yel-
low indicator lamp(s) is (are) not lit.
Xenon illumination
– The xenon lamp including the backup lamp is intact.
– The xenon illumination is on and the green indicator lamp is lit.
Note:
If the first lamp has failed and the backup lamp is in use, make sure to
have a backup lamp module ready at hand as a precaution.
Weight compensation
– Balance setting of the suspension arm has been adjusted as required.
When the release key on the surgical microscope is pressed, the effort
required to move the arm up and down is the same.
Limitation of downward movement
– The minimum working distance (height) from the surgical field has
been set using the adjustment screw.
Base
– The brake has been pressed to lock the stand in position.
Accessories
– Proper functioning of the accessory equipment (illumination system,
video system, etc.) has been checked on the basis of the relevant us-
er's manuals.
Warning!
If a function fails, you must not use this instrument for safety reasons. Cor-
rect the fault (see the "Troubleshooting table“) or contact our service dept.
