Loading the machine
Disposable items must not be
processed in the machine.
–
Arrange the load so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures
that they get properly cleaned.
–
Do not place items to be cleaned
inside other pieces where they may
be concealed.
–
Hollow instruments must be
throughly cleaned, internally and
externally.
– Ensure that items with long narrow
hollow sections can be flushed
through properly before placing them
in inserts or connecting them to jets.
– Hollow vessels should be inverted
and placed in the correct baskets
and inserts to ensure that water can
flow in and out of them unrestricted.
– Deep-sided items should be placed
at an angle to make sure water runs
off them freely.
–
Tall, narrow, hollow items should be
placed in the centre of the baskets to
ensure better water coverage.
–
Lightweight items should be secured
with a cover net (e.g. an A6) and
small items placed in a mesh tray to
prevent them blocking the spray
arms.
–
Mobile units or baskets with an
adapter must engage correctly.
–
The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or which
hang down in their path.
– It is advisable to use instruments
made of surgical steel only, as these
are not susceptible to corrosion.
– Nickel plated instruments and
coloured anodised aluminium
instruments are not suitable for
machine processing.
– Plastic items must be thermally
stable.
