4. Place the patient tubing to the appropriate position of patient and start to suck sputum.
5. When the sputum reaches the safe full level of collection bottle (800 cc), the suctioning
will stop sucking automatically (float shut-off).
6. Switch the power switch to “O” position (off), shut off the suction motor.
7. Remove the sputum from collection bottle after the motor stops turning completely.
(Please refer to the section “CLEAN INSTRUCTIONS” on page 9 for the directions of
how to clean the collection bottle).
8. Turn on the unit and start to run the suction unit again.
NOTE
1. If the unit sustains a severe drop, validity of the gauge must be checked. Inspect if the
float shut-off is still functioning properly when the liquid in the collection bottle reaches
the safe full level.
2. Always transport unit with vacuum adjust knob rotated fully clockwise in case unit is
dropped.
CAUTION
1. When automatic float shut-off is activated, contents of the collection bottles
should be emptied. Further suctioning could cause damage to the vacuum
pump.
2. Should fluid be aspirated back into the unit, send your suction to an authorized
service center for a detailed inspection as the vacuum pump may have been
damaged.
