Z Plug in the HF connection cable and connect to the HF surgical device.
2.2
Z Open the irrigation stopcock (2.2).
Z Switch on the irrigation fluid supply.

When reaching the bladder capacity:


Z Turn off the supply: Close the irrigation stopcock (2.2).
5 Z Remove the working element (5) and drain the irrigation fluid via the proximal
Fig. 8 end of the sheath.

7 GA-D 363
7.2.2 Irrigation fluid

CAUTION!
Irrigation fluid can be electrically conductive!
Depending on the application, a suitable low-conductivity irrigation fluid must be
selected by the user.
Do not use saline (NaCl) solution for HF applications.

CAUTION!
Danger of elevated temperatures when working without irrigation fluid!
Injuries of the mucous membrane due to excessive temperatures endanger the
patient.
Activate the electrode only while it is immersed in irrigation fluid and under conti­
nuous irrigation.
7.3 HF applications
WARNING!
Danger of injury if the HF instrument is not visible through the scope!
Inadvertent tissue damage as well as damage to the distal end of the endoscope
and instrument parts are possible.
Use HF instruments only within the scope of their specifications (voltage strength,
duty factor).
Activate HF instruments only after the part conducting HF current has become
fully visible through the scope and contact is made with the desired area of use.

WARNING!
Explosion hazard if the electrode is activated in an air or gas bubble (e.g. roof of
the bladder)!
This may cause injuries of the bladder or uterus wall.
Activate HF current only if:
' the electrode is visible through the scope and is fully immersed in the irriga­
tion fluid
' the desired tissue contact is made.

CAUTION!
Careful if HF voltage is too high!
Danger of injury resulting from damage to the electrode insulation!
Exceeding the maximum recurring peak voltage for the electrode in
combination with HF surgical devices and / or selecting the wrong mode can de­
stroy the insulation and cause leakage currents.
Tissue in the patient, user or third parties may be destroyed.
Use electrodes in combination with HF surgical devices only with a maximum recur­
ring peak voltage of 1.0 kV. Do not carry out forced coagulation or spray coagulation.
We recommend using the following power settings:
' cutting mode: 100 Watt
' coagulation mode: maximum 60 Watt
CAUTION!
Danger of HF arcing!
Insufficient distance between the parts conducting high-frequency current and other
conductive parts can lead to unintentional tissue damage and damage to the instru­
ment.
During activation, live parts of HF instruments conducting high-frequency current
must have a safety distance of at least 2.5 mm from the distal end of the
2.5 mm endoscope (fig. 9).
In the case of HF arcing, replace the electrode immediately, check the
endoscope for damage and send it in for repair if necessary to avoid conse­
Fig. 9 quential damage.

GA-D 363 8
CAUTION!
Do not use high power settings in the sphincter area!
This will cause thermal damage and may lead to a dysfunction of the sphincter.
When the tissue turns brown or black or is carbonized this is an indication of ex­
cessive power.
Depending on the power or mode, the depth effect (necrosis) of the electrode is
approx. 0.5 to 2 mm. It is therefore necessary particularly in the area of the sphinc­
ter to work carefully and with the lowest possible HF output.
CAUTION!
Do not activate HF current with the stricture scalpel in place!
The stricture scalpel is not insulated and may cause injuries of the mucous mem­
brane if HF current is activated.
Disconnect the HF connection cable from the HF connector of the working
element before working with stricture scalpels.

CAUTION!
Careful if HF output power is incorrectly selected!
Injuries to the patient as well as damage to the product are possible.
The power should be set on the basis of the surgeon's experience / training re­
garding the corresponding indication.
7.4 Inserting auxiliary instruments
When using the adapter with 1 insertion port (4b), flexible auxiliary instruments
corresponding to the size of the passage [see identification on the resectoscope
sheath (2)] and with a wokring length of at least 230 mm can be used.

CAUTION!
Danger of injury when introducing auxiliary instruments if these are not
visible through the scope!
Inadvertent tissue damage is possible.
Insert auxiliary instruments only under visual control.
Move the equipment in such a way that the auxiliary instruments are fully
visible through the scope.

CAUTION!
Danger of injuries as well as damage to the resectoscope when inserting or with­
drawing forceps and scissors with open jaws!
Inadvertent tissue damage, damage to the distal end of the resectoscope as well
as loss of particles on the jaws are possible.
Introduce and retract forceps and scissors only with the jaw sections closed and
under visual control.

14 Warranty and Customer Service

Richard Wolf guarantees our instruments to be free from any defects in materials and workmanship under
normal use and service for one year. Richard Wolf general terms and conditions may be found on the
back of our invoice.
Parts delivered separately by Richard Wolf are subject to all of the same general terms and conditions for
our products, including the limitations of warranty and liability.
All products should be returned to Richard Wolf for any necessary or desired repair or part replacement.
No product repair or part replacement should be done other than by Richard Wolf unless the care and
instruction manual or other written information indicates that repair or part replacement is authorized. If
authorized, parts must be replaced only by parts supplied or specified by Richard Wolf, and product repair
and part replacement must be done in strict conformance with Richard Wolf specifications and
instructions for repair and part replacement, including post replacement testing and recalibration. Failure
to follow this requirement in any way can be dangerous to you, your personnel and your patients and
voids the warranty for the product repaired or the product in which the part was replaced and if the part
was supplied by Richard Wolf, for that part.
Delivery by Richard Wolf of technical documents such as circuit or other design diagrams does not
constitute authorization for product repair or part replacement. Richard Wolf instruments and other
products should never be modified or altered under any circumstances.
Contact Richard Wolf if you have any question (1) whether replacement of a part or a repair is authorized
by Richard Wolf, or (2) whether you have complete instructions and specifications for part replacement or
repair.
These instructions do not attempt to cover all details or variations in equipment, nor to provide for every
possible contingency to be met in connection with installation, operation, or maintenance. Should further
information be required or should problems arise which are not covered sufficiently for the purchaser’s
purpose, the matter should be referred to Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corporation.

REPAIR POLICY
Defective merchandise will be repaired or replaced at no charge to the customer, provided the customer
delivers such defective merchandise prepaid. Any repairs, maintenance or servicing of Richard Wolf
merchandise by anyone other than a factory authorized representative will render our warranty null and
void.
REPAIR SHIPMENTS
When returning your instrument for repair, we suggest that you prevent shipping damage to the
instrument by reusing the box that it was originally shipped in. Richard Wolf also recommends that the
instrument be insured for an amount to cover the cost of replacement.
