Chapter 4 Basic operations
• If any irregularities are found with the insertion tube operation or other things during the
insertion tube insertion, do not insert the insertion tube any further. If this happens, (release
the angulation lock if it is locked) remove your finger from the [ANGLE] joystick, return the
angulation section to center position and slowly remove the insertion tube.
• In case of LX 4mm/6mm models, a yellow temperature indicator is displayed when ambient
temperature is about 80 °C to warn you that it is approaching the upper limit. However, as of
LX 8.5mm models the same indicator will be displayed when ambient temperature reaches
about 60 °C.
• In the case of the LX, whenever the red temperature indicator and a temperature warning
message appears along with an audible warning alarm, immediately withdraw the insertion
tube from the object of observation. Continued use risks damage to the insertion tube and the
optical adapter, resulting in malfunction and reduced illumination.
„ Angulation operation
1
The insertion tube should be angulated as required for guidance or
observation. See “Checking the angulation functions” (page 54) for
details about angulation operation.
NOTE
•
Increasing the insertion tube looping amount (bending amount) decreases the maximum
angulation angle limit of the angulation section. Keep the insertion tube as straight as
possible to get the best operations from the instrument.
• Angulation tends to be difficult to achieve under low temperatures.
• Do not withdraw the insertion tube while its angulation is locked or while your finger is on the
[ANGLE] joystick. Doing so can damage the insertion tube and/or object being observed.
• Should any abnormality be detected during an angulation operation, do not try and force the
angulation operation to continue. Doing so can damage the insertion tube or object being
observed.
