Inspection/Maintenance
Proper care and handling is essential for satisfactory

broken, cracked, tarnished surfaces, movement of hinges, and
chipped or worn parts. If any of these conditions appear, do not
use the device. Return devices to an authorized repair service
center for repair or replacement.
Before sterilizing, lubricate the device with instrument milk or a
steam permeable/ water soluble lubricant, following the
lubricant manufacturer’s instructions.
Let devices drip dry for three (3) minutes before packaging for
sterilization.

Sterilization wrap material must be cleared for the applicable
sterilization modality by your country’s regulatory body. Use in
accordance with packaging manufacturer’s sterilization instructions
being sure to protect jaws and cutting edges from damage.
