d) Release the suction control valve to determine if the valve freely returns to its OFF position and the aspira-
tion of water ceases.
e) If the suction valve does not move smoothly or feels “sticky”, remove the valve from the suction cylinder
on the control body of the endoscope. Apply a small amount of silicone oil lubricant, OF-Z11, onto rubber
part and rubber the O-ring. Place a small droplet of oil on one’s sterile gloved forefinger and gently swirl
between thumb and forefinger. Next place the valve with O-ring in-between thumb and finger and gently
rotate the valve so that the oil is evenly applied to the outer edges of the rubber O-ring.
Remove/wipe off excess lubricant with a soft gauze. Do not use excessive silicone oil.
5) Inspection of Biopsy Forceps and Instrument Channel
a) Make sure there are no kinks in the flexible shaft of
the biopsy forceps.
b) The jaws of the forceps must be free of any residual
debris. Any debris must be cleaned from the for-
ceps before they are used. Use only sterile forceps.
c) The handle mechanism on the forceps should be
operated to open and close the jaws. This mecha-
nism should operate freely.
d) Close and inspect the jaws of the forceps to make
sure the cups are in proper alignment. If the forceps
has a spike, the spike must be completely straight
and fully within the cups.
e) Any accessory should be slowly inserted through the instrument channel inlet with the endoscope in a
straight position. There should be no resistance encountered. If resistance is encountered, do not attempt
to introduce the accessory further. The instrument channel may be damaged and the endoscope should not
be used. Contact the PENTAX service department.
CAUTION:
If the instrument is to be used immediately after the inspection, use only “fresh” distilled or sterile water.
To avoid recontamination of a previously reprocessed endoscope, avoid use of idle/uncovered tap water.
NOTE:
A rubber inlet seal in good condition must be on the instrument channel inlet to prevent the loss of suction
and a risk of cross contamination to the end user due to the potential for reflux (spit-back) of patient flu-
ids. Worn seal will result in leakage and should be replaced. To ensure maximum performance of these
sealing mechanisms, consider replacing the rubber inlet seal with a new fully reprocessed one for each
procedure.
WARNING:
The use of any forceps or accessory that shows any sign of damage or difficulty of operation must be
avoided. Any malfunction of a forceps or accessory during a patient procedure could result in serious
injury to the patient. Also, the use of damaged forceps or accessories may result in serious and costly
damage to the endoscope.
WARNING:
All patient contact accessories must be thoroughly cleaned and subjected to an appropriate high-level
disinfection or sterilization process before being used for the first time and subsequently after each clin-
ical use.
CAUTION:
The instrument, Air/Water channel systems are made of stainless steel, poly phenylene oxide and fluo-
rine-contained polymers. When any fluids are used with this scope, please read carefully and follow all
instructions in the manual supplied with the fluids for use and pay special attention to any reactions with
the materials identified in the intended fluid path. Only the user can determine if the fluids are appropriate
for patient use.
