EVIS EXERA II TJF TYPE Q180V OPERATION MANUAL
Inspection of the UP/DOWN angulation mechanism
1. Move the UP/DOWN angulation lock all the way in the opposite direction of
the “F ” mark. Then turn the UP/DOWN angulation control knob in the
“ U” or the “D ” direction until it stops.
2. Confirm that the angle of the bending section is roughly stabilized when the
UP/DOWN angulation control knob is released.
3. Confirm that the bending section straightens out when the UP/DOWN
angulation lock is moved all the way in the “F ” direction and the
UP/DOWN angulation control knob is released.
Inspection of the RIGHT/LEFT angulation mechanism
1. Turn the RIGHT/LEFT angulation lock all the way in the opposite direction of
the “F ” mark. Then turn the RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knob in the
“R ” or the “ L” direction until it stops.
2. Confirm that the angle of the bending section is roughly stabilized when the
RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knob is released.
3. Confirm that the bending section straightens out when the RIGHT/LEFT
angulation lock is turned in the “F ” direction and the RIGHT/LEFT
angulation control knob is released.
Inspection of the forceps elevator mechanism
In rare cases, the elevator control lever can move further in
the “ U” direction after the forceps elevator is completely
raised for more effective locking of the guidewire. In this
case, more resistance may be encountered when operating
the elevator control lever. This does not indicate a
malfunction.
Perform the following inspections while the bending section is straight.
Inspection for smooth operation
1. Move the elevator control lever slowly all the way in the opposite direction of
the “ U” direction.
