CLEANING
CLEANING/DISINFECTING PATIENT-CONTACTING PARTS
Clean the forehead rest, the chinrest and the patient grip (if a pair of patient grip is used) with an
alcohol wipe before and after each patient.
CLEANING LENSES AND MIRRORS
REMOVING STAINS
1 Prepare a solution of ethyl alcohol 20% and ether 80%.
2 Remove dust from lens and mirror surfaces with the cleaning brush, or a blower.
3 Using clean gauze or lint-free tissue, lightly clean with a rotating movement from the center of the
lens/mirror outwards.
4 If the stain remains, repeat this 2 to 3 times.
5 If stains are persistent, call your dealer or TOPCON (see the back cover).
CLEANING THE SLIDING PLATE, RAIL AND WHEEL SHAFT
1 Move the base right and left and wipe the wheel shaft clean with a dry cloth.
2 Hold up the control lever and clean the sliding plate with a dry cloth.
CAUTION
• Before carrying out daily care, remove the power cable (to avoid elec-
tric shocks) and wait until the lamp house has cooled (to avoid burns).
• Do not touch parts inside the lamp house cover during operation and
immediately after switching off the power supply: this could cause
burns.
NOTE
• To prevent the chinrest, forehead rest and other plastic parts from discolora-
tion and deterioration, do not use volatile solvents for cleaning, including ben-
zine, thinner, ether, gasoline, etc.
• Wipe parts with a cloth moistened with a tepid solution of neutral kitchen detergent.
NOTE
To prevent damaging lens surfaces, do not hold gauze with tweezers.
NOTE
When stained, the movement of the sliding plate and rail of the tabletop and the wheel
shaft of the base becomes less smooth. Clean them with a dry cloth.
