Pre-Treatment at the Application Location prior to Cleaning

It is recommended to carry out disassembly immediately after the application in the operating theater.
To separate the tubular shaft from the handle, it must not be locked. The jaw part of the tubular shaft
must be open!
Conduct the cleaning and disinfecting of contaminated instruments as soon as possible after use.
The following generally applies:
The sooner the inner lumina are cleaned, the better the result will be. Should it not be possible to comply
with this time due to the length of the application or due to organizational aspects, it is the user's own
responsibility to specify and validate measures in order to prevent drying of the contaminants, or to ensure
success of the cleaning despite drying, respectively.
We generally recommend dry return transport in a closed transport container without addition of liquids,
cleaning agents or disinfectants.
