1.4. Handpiece

11
The handpiece (7) contains the shockwave generator, a fan to dissipate
heat and the slot for the different applicator heads. It is connected to the
control
unit (1).
Note:
The shockwave generator in the handpiece is an expendable part and has
to be replaced after a specific period of use, as its functionality decreases
over time.
Zimmer MedizinSysteme GmbH guarantees unrestricted use of at least 2
million shocks per shockwave generator.
Wear on the shockwave generator varies. Depending on performance and
frequency, sometimes far more than 2 million shocks can be delivered.
For more information on the need to replace the shockwave generator,
see chapter 11.
To work with the handpiece on a patient, it is essential that one of the
applicator heads is screwed tightly onto the handpiece as far as it will go.
The cable should not be stretched beyond its maximum length and must
be protected against pinching or any other mechanical damage.
To avoid heat accumulating in the handpiece, it is essential to ensure that
the hand holding it or anything else does not block the air vents at the top,
and particularly, on the base of the handpiece.
Standby mode on device

The fan in the handpiece is started by depressing the footswitch and stops
automatically after reaching a certain temperature.
