MAINTENANCE
The
NEW ASKIR 30
suction equipment does not need maintenance or lubrication.
It is necessary to check functioning and instrument before every use.
Unpack the instrument and
always check
integrity of plastic parts and feeding cable, they might have been
damaged during previous use.
Connect cable to electrical network and turn switch on.
Close the aspiration outlet with your finger and with suction regulator in maximum vacuum position check
that the vacuum indicators reaches -80 kPa (-0.80 bar) maximum.
Rotate the knob from right to left and check the aspiration regulating control.
The vacuum indicator should go down -40 kPa (-0.40 bar).
Verify that loud noises are not present, these can indicate wrong functioning.
A protection fuse (
F 1x1.6A 250V and F 1 x 4A 250V for voltage 110V/60Hz
) reachable from exterior and it
situated in the plug protects the instrument. For use replacing, always check the type and the range
indicated.

If the overfill security system it’s activated, don’t proceede with the liquid aspiration.
If the overfill security system doesn’t work there are two cases:
1° case – If the overfill security system doesn’t work the aspiration will be stopped by the bacteriological filter
who avoid the liquid penetration inside the device.
2° case – If both the security system doesn’t work, there is the possibility that liquid comes inside the device,
in this case return the device to CA-MI technical service.
