001-100134.16.01Dual Shot  Alpha   Daily Inspection and Periodic Inspection60Nemoto Kyorindo Co., Ltd. 06/01/1299. Daily Inspection and Periodic InspectionAppropriate repair and maintenance need to be performed to maintain functionof Contrast Delivery System Dual Shot. The following maintenance schedule isrecommended.Daily:  Check and clean each part of the system. Monthly:  Check and clean each part of the system and check its operation. Yearly:  Calibration and check of each part of the system by our trained ser-vice staff are recommended. Periodic maintenance is needed once ayear to guarantee the system functions.Daily inspectionAlways perform the following inspection before using this system. If any malfunction is found, immediately stop using the system and contact us.Inspection of a system and accessories1) Check movement of the presser of the head by moving it back and forth toeach limit position without the syringe mounted before use.2) Check that all displays and lamps are illuminated.3) Check that no flaws, breaks and wear are found in the connecting cable ofthe system. Also check that the cable is connected properly. Check that noother equipment except for this system (the equipment specified by us) isconnected.4) Check that the system and the accessories are not damaged.5) Use of inappropriate accessories may cause malfunction of the system ordamage to the patient. Check that they are appropriate.Inspection of Head and Stand1)  Check that no damage such as cracks is found on the head cover.2) Check that the head and the head arm rotate freely and the head does notrotate more than 180q in the vertical and horizontal directions.3)  Check that the casters of the stand move smoothly and the lockingmechanism operates properly.4)  Check that the support of the stand moves up and down smoothly.5)  Check that no damage such as cracks is found on the stand and all bolts andscrews are tightly screwed.
001-100134.16.01Dual Shot  Alpha Daily Inspection and Periodic Inspection61Nemoto Kyorindo Co., Ltd. 06/01/129Inspection of Ceiling Mounted Arm (option)1) Check that there are no cracks, bents, wear and looseness in the support andarm.2) Check that the support can be moved lightly without bending.3) When any defects are detected, inform us immediately.Cleaning1) One of the main causes of malfunction is adhesion of the contrast on thehead. Always clean the head after use. In general, the contrast can beremoved easily with a dry cloth immediately after it adheres to it. If the contrast adhered to dried out, remove it with a cloth dampened withwarm water or water.2) Inform us if the contrast gets inside the system.࡮To avoid electric shock, always turn the power off andunplug the power cable when cleaning the system.࡮Never use organic solvents such as thinner andbenzene because they cause malfunction of thesystem as well as are not effective to the contrast.Operation inspection1) Check movement of the presser of the head by moving it back and forth toeach limit position without the syringe mounted before use.2) Move the presser of the head forward by keeping pressing the forward keywithout the syringe mounted, and check that the presser stops at 10mLautomatically.3) Check that all displays and lamps are illuminated.4) Start injection under the injection conditions programmed and check thatthe values of the injection conditions are displayed on the screen and thesystem operates properly.Caution
