SECTION 8: SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

The Generator requires no routine service or maintenance. Preventative maintenance can

be performed annually such as cleaning and fuse replacement. If the Generator fails to

operate when plugged into a proper AC power receptacle and the AC Mains Switch is

turned “ON”, a fuse may have blown. Replace the fuse as described below or contact

Baylis Medical Company for assistance. The Generator contains no user-serviceable parts.

Disassembly and attempted repair by unqualified personnel may create a hazardous

condition and will void the warranty. Annual preventative maintenance may include a test

for electrical safety, check that the Dispersive Electrode Fault Indicator illuminates in the

absence of a connection, and verification that the rear fan is operational.

WARNING: DO NOT remove the cover of the Generator. Removing the cover may

result in personnel injury and/or damage to the Generator.

8.1. CLEANING

The outer surface of the Generator may be cleaned with a mild soapy solution. DO NOT

immerse the Generator or its accessories in any liquid. Avoid caustic, abrasive or

flammable cleaners and disinfectants. If disinfecting is required, 70% isopropyl alcohol or

5% solution of household bleach may be used to clean the outer surfaces. The Generator

cannot be sterilized. Any flammable solvents used to wipe the Generator should be allowed

to thoroughly dry before turning the Generator “ON”.

If the automatic dimming function of the display does not seem to be working, the ambient

light sensor may be obstructed or dirty.

8.2. FUSE REPLACEMENT

1. Unplug the Power Cord from the Generator.

2. Use a precision slot screwdriver to remove the fuse drawer

3. Remove BOTH fuses from the fuse drawer and discard them.

4. Select TWO new fuses according to the following specifications:

5.0A/250V, Low breaking capacity, Slow Blow (or Time Lag), IEC markings

5. Ensure the integrity of the new fuses by inspecting for physical damage that could affect

the function of the fuse. Replace if either or both look damaged.

6. Place the new fuses in the fuse drawer.

7. Return the fuse drawer back into the Generator in any orientation.

WARNING: Using different rated fuses than specified can result in permanent damage to the

Generator!

8.3. DISPOSAL

For disposal of the Generator at the end of its service life, please contact Baylis Medical.
