3.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 General Operation
NOTE: Maxtec strongly recommends the use of kink proof cannula.
1.
Turn knob to the "OFF" position.
2. Connect the flow meter vertically to the appropriate gas source. The
appropriate gas and pressure are specified on the flow meter body.
3. Verify that the float ball is at the very bottom of the flow tube.
NOTE: If the float is not resting at the bottom of the flow tube, the
product is leaking; consult the "TROUBLESHOOTING" Section 4.0.
4. Adjust flow:
To increase- Turn knob counterclockwise
To decrease- Turn knob clockwise
5. Set flow by aligning center of float ball with indicator lines on the
flow tube.
6. Adjusting flow beyond the last calibrated indicator line will result in
an undetermined flow.
7.
To obtain maximum flush flow, turn knob fully counterclockwise.
NOTE: Flush flow is any flow above the last calibrated line on the flow
tube with an unrestricted flow, as indicated on flow meter labeling.
