5) MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
This section deals with maintenance and serviceability of the Theralase™ system by the end user. If further detailed service of your
laser system is required, contact Theralase™ Inc directly for assistance. Detailed contact information is supplied at the end of this
section.
Inspection and Cleaning
PRE AND POST TREATMENT
Wipe the surface of the probe with a 70% solution of isopropyl alcohol. A 70% solution of isopropyl alcohol is a universally
accepted disinfectant in accordance with CDC (Center for Device Control and Prevention) Guideline for Disinfection and
Sterilization in Healthcare Facilities, 2008. William A. Rutala, Ph.D., M.P.H.

WEEKLY
Follow the stop procedure in the basic operation section of this manual. Remove the key from the Power Pack. Disconnect
the Laser Probe(s) and power input to the Power Pack. Carefully clean each of the TLC-2001 Laser Probes with isopropyl
alcohol swabs being careful not to immerse the Laser Probe heads. Remove the lens cap and immerse a Q-tip into isopropyl
alcohol and rotate in the laser aperture carefully to avoid damaging the laser diodes.
MONTHLY
Follow the stop procedure in the basic operation section of this manual. Remove the key from the Power Pack. Disconnect
the Laser Probe(s) and power input to the Power Pack. Inspect the laser diodes for cracks or chips in the glass. A visible chip
in the glass, a crack in the glass or a missing glass mandates replacement of the laser diode. Contact Theralase™
immediately for replacement of the defective / damaged laser diode.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
In addition to performing the monthly inspection for physical problems associated with the laser diodes, it is also important
to check the efficacy of each of the laser diode outputs. Laser diodes typically wear or drop in average power as the total
usage hours of the system increases. The real time laser power indicator is used as a reference for when the laser diodes
should be calibrated / replaced.
Check the optical output of each laser diode to ensure laser diode optical output at least once per week.
The TLC-2000 therapeutic laser system may only be calibrated/repaired by Theralase™ Inc. or trained personnel equipped
with the proper service equipment. There are no user serviceable parts in the Laser Probe. The Laser Verification software
will indicate if a laser diode service must be performed.
Transport
Remove the key from the main power switch and store in a safe location. Disassemble the laser system, carefully packing all
components and taking special care with the laser probe assembly. In packing and unpacking the apparatus, be careful not to
twist or kink the probe cable(s) too sharply to prevent damage to the probe cable assembly. Ensure proper storage of the
Laser Probes to avoid laser diode damage. If you damage your laser diodes, please notify Theralase™ Inc. immediately for
service / replacement. (Note: The laser system should be kept within 0 to 40°C, 500 hPa to 1068 hPa and 0 to 80% relative
humidity during transport).
