PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE CHECKS

The Super Vega SUCTION ASPIRATOR does not need maintenance or lubrication.
It is, however, necessary to inspect the unit before each use. With regard to training, given the information
contained in the user manual and since it is easy to understand the said device, it doesn't appear to be nec-
essary.
Unpack the instrument and always check integrity of plastic parts and feeding cable, they might have been
damaged during previous use. Connect the cable to electrical network and turn the switch on.
Close the aspirator outlet with your finger and with suction regulator at maximum check that the vacuum
indicators reaches at least -80kPa (-0.80 bar) Rotate the knob from right to left. The vacuum indicator should
go down -40kPa (-0.40 bar).
Check that no loud noises are present. A protection fuses (F 1 x 1.6 A L 250V) reachable from exterior and
situated in the plug protects the instrument. For fuses replacing, always the type and the range.
Before changing the fuse, disconnect the plug from the power supply socket.

If the overfill security system it's activated, don't proceede with the liquid aspiration.
If the overfill security system doesn't work there are two cases:
1° case – If the overfill security system doesn't work the aspiration will be stopped by the bacteriological filter
who avoid the liquid penetration inside the device.
2° case – If both the security system doesn't work, there is the possibility that liquid comes inside the device,
in this case return the device to GIMA technical service.

structions and any other information that can help the technical assistance staff for product repair.
