Chapter 3 Preparation and Inspection
ULTRASOUND GASTROVIDEOSCOPE GF-UCT180
Inspection for smooth operation
1. Confirm that both the UP/DOWN and RIGHT/LEFT angulation locks move
all the way in the “F ” direction.
2. Turn the UP/DOWN and RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knobs slowly in
each direction until they stop, and return them to their respective neutral
positions. Confirm that the bending section angulates smoothly and
correctly, that maximum angulation can be achieved, and that the bending
section returns to its neutral position.
3. When the UP/DOWN and RIGHT/LEFT angulation control knobs are turned
to their respective neutral positions as shown in Figure 3.4, confirm that the
bending section returns smoothly to an approximately straight condition.
Figure 3.4
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.
