LightLas 532 – Operator's Manual Rev. No 01 Page 93 of 115
Section 7 MAINTENANCE
The LightLas 532 Photocoagulator Laser has been designed to require minimal
maintenance. There are several simple routine procedures that are to be carried out
by the operator (see 7.2) but aside of these there are no operator maintenance
requirements.
The manufacturer however does recommend that the LightLas 532 be serviced by an
authorized service agent every 12 months. During this Preventative Maintenance (PM)
service visit the Laser System will be Calibrated and Aligned and the general
operating function confirmed.
It is a requirement that on an annual basis (every 12 months) the LightLas 532 has
the Power meter calibrated to a known calibrated meter and have its earth leakage
current and earth resistance measured according to EN60601-1. These procedures
can only be performed by an authorized service agent of the manufacturer.
If at any time you have concerns about any aspect of the Operation / Calibration or
Alignment of the Laser System you are urged to contact the authorized
representative or the manufacturer in order to decide on a suitable course of action.
Refer to Section 9 of this Manual for particular National requirements of EU
Countries.
7.1 Operator / User Maintenance
The following procedures are those that the manufacturer recommends that the
operator of the Laser System perform routinely. The operator or service person must
always take care not to expose yourself to hazardous laser radiation when performing
any of the maintenance procedures. Always wear safety glasses if operating the laser.
1. Cleaning the external surfaces of the Laser
To clean the outside of the LightLas 532 console, wipe over using a damp (but not
dripping) cloth or use a mild cleaning agent. Do not use any solvents or do not spray or
pour any cleaning agents directly on the equipment. Use a dry cloth afterwards or allow
to air dry.
This procedure should be carried out as often as required but at least every 3 months.
Avoid touching the optical parts, as there is a specific procedure to clean them.
When the Laser System is not in use keep it covered using the Dust Cover.
