4. Attach the endoscope manufacturer’s Universal Cleaning Adapter to the endoscope referencing the
manufacturer’s instructions. Attach the remaining end to the SCOPE BUDDY Universal Cleaning
Adapter.
5. Using the SCOPE BUDDY front panel arrow keys, set the timer until it displays the desired flushing
time.
6. Press the “START/STOP” button to begin the cycle, the timer display will now begin counting down.
Detergent solution will now be drawn up, pumped through SCOPE BUDDY, and will flow out the
endoscope’s distal tip.
7. Verify solution is exiting all channels of the endoscope. If fluid fails to come out of all channels, then a
channel may be blocked and the endoscope may need to be manually brushed and cleaned again. The
flushing process will then need to be repeated until flow through the endoscope is verified, or the
endoscope should be taken out of service
Caution: Failure to verify fluid flow through the endoscope can result in an endoscope which
is not properly rinsed. Always verify fluid is exiting all endoscope ports at the distal end.
Caution: The screened end of the Fluid Intake Line must remain fully submerged in solution
to ensure proper fluid delivery and no interruption in fluid flow.
Note: A flushing cycle can be paused by pressing the START/STOP button. Pressing the
START/STOP button again will resume the original cycle. If’ however, an arrow key was
pressed during the pause cycle, then pressing the START/STOP button will begin a cycle from
the original pre-set time amount.
8. After the timer counts down to zero, fluid flow will stop and a five-second audible tone will be heard.
During this time, the timer display will flash all zeros “00.00” and then remain with a zero display
providing an indication that the cycle is complete.
