Device preparation

1. Sterilize the motor (the motor is not sterile on delivery). If the motor has already been sterilized: when
removing the motor from the sterile packaging, ensure that the sterile packaging is not damaged and
that the sterility indicator confirms sterility (if no sterility indicator is provided, the sterile packaging
must at least show the date on which the shelf life of the sterile item is due to expire).
2. Insert the stand for the irrigation fluid into the stand holder.
3. Plug the motor plug of the electronic motor into the motor sockets.
4. Plug the pedal plug into the pedal socket at the rear of the control unit.
5. Attach the sterilized handpiece to the electronic motor. Press the handpiece firmly onto the electronic
motor until it clicks into position and make sure it is secure by moving it slightly in the opposite
direction.
6. Assemble the tubing set: For the cooling of the Handpiece fix the tube set Ref. 6024 in the tube
compartment according to the following instructions.
Use only Nouvag tube sets Ref. 6024, otherwise the correct function cannot be guaranteed.
Check the expiry date of the tubing set and ensure that the packaging is not damaged. Using
non-sterile tubing sets can result in serious infection and, in extreme cases, can be fatal.
When inserting the tubing set, watch the arrow on the cover of the pump compartment. It indicates the
flow direction of the cooling liquid.
The integrated peristaltic pump is used to cool tissue in order to prevent damage to the tissue. It may only
be operated with watery solutions, such as 0.9% Sodium Chloride irrigation solution (Ref. 1707) or "Ringer"
solution. Supplying medication using the integrated pump is expressly prohibited.
Do not regulate the amount of irrigation fluid using the roller clamp on the tubing set; with the HighSurg
11, this is regulated instead using the integrated pump. For this reason, make sure to open the roller clamp
as far as it will go (please refer to 7.4.5 Setting the pump supply quantity).
