mode). Swapping between memories VIT1 and VIT2 can also be achieved by means
of the footswitch. For footswitch operation please refer to the relevant section.
1) Attach the IRRIGATION tube from the I/A lines by pushing the end fitting male
Luer lock into the corresponding fitting on the semi-disposable scleral guide
tubing (female Luer lock).
2) Attach the ASPIRATION tube from the I/A lines by pushing the end fitting into
the corresponding fitting on the semi-disposable vitrectomy handpiece tubing
(male Luer lock).
3) Connect the vitrectomy handpiece tubing (160 cm long) female Luer lock
connector to the control console "VIT" connector (Fig.1, No.6).
4) Touch <VIT> key on the LCD screen to select the Vitrectomy mode. <VIT> soft
key is depressed and the speech synthesizer announces “VITRECTOMY”. Cutter
window will display preset cutting rate, cutting mode, <OPEN TIP> and
<SINGLE> toggle keys. The <OPEN TIP> and <SINGLE> keys have a “virtual” LED.
When the <OPEN TIP> LED is on (green colour), the cutter aspirating port is
open in the starting position, otherwise is closed. When the <SINGLE> LED is on
(green colour), the cutter works in single cut mode, otherwise works in
repetitive standard mode.
5) Adjust aspiration by means in the Aspiration window (see I/A operation).
6) Touch the cut rate display in the cutter window to show the cutter setup pop-
up window.
7) Cut rate can be adjusted by means of the <UP>/<DOWN> keys.
8) If you wish to work in single cut mode, touch the toggle <SINGLE> key. The cut
rate display fades out and the <SINGLE> “virtual” LED becomes green. To return
to the repetitive cut mode, touch the <SINGLE> key again.
9)
Adjust the cutting port size on the vitreous cutter (semi-disposable model
only).
NOTE:
Port size adjustment is accomplished by gently pushing and rotating the tip collar relative to the
handle to one of four detent positions. Each detent position varies the cutting port by approximately
0.2 mm. Rotating the tip collar counter - clockwise (facing the base end) reduces the size of the
cutting port from 0.7 mm fully open to 0.2 mm narrow opening.
10) To eliminate air from the reflux line use the footswitch to activate the
"REFLUX" function (see paragraph 8.6) until the aspiration line is fully filled.
