4.2.3 To Suck Mucus
To aspirate patient material, ensure that the suction pump
is on and depress the suction valve.
[Note]
Avoid aspirating solid matter or thick fluids. Suction may
not stop as they may clog the suction channel or be caught
by the suction valve.
4.2.4 If Mucus Adheres to the Distal Objective Lens or If the Image is Obscured
If mucus adheres to the distal objective lens or if the image
is obscured, clean the surface of the lens by pressing the
air/water valve. When cleaning is complete, remove water
from the surface of lens by activating air delivery and then
suction.
[Note]
If any debris such as mucus is left adhered, or if air is
supplied without supplying water, the debris may become
hard to remove due to drying or fixation.
