CHAPTER 10. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
10.1 Technical maintenance
Always check the surface of the treatment electrode, before use, for damage, wounds or
scratches. If there is damage or cracks in the enamel paint, or black dots that cannot be
removed, the treatment electrode must be replaced.
There is no requirement for frequent service intervals from the manufacturer, but we
recommend that the device is checked annually. This can be done by the manufacturer, your
dealer or by other authorized professionals approved by the manufacturer. It is recommended
that you keep an overview of the services that are performed on the device for later
maintenance. In some countries, this is mandatory.
Maintenance and all repairs must only be carried out by authorized service personnel. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the results of maintenance performed by
unauthorized persons. It is not allowed for anyone other than the dealer, or his authorized
professionals to open the device. Contact your local supplier or manufacturer directly
10.2 Cleaning the device
Turn off the device and remove the main electric socket from the wall before carrying out any
cleaning. The appliance can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Use lukewarm water and mild soap
(without scrubbing particles and without any alcohol solution)
10.3 Cleaning accessories
The treatment electrode
The treatment electrode is cleaned with soap and lukewarm water. The treatment surface
itself on the treatment probe can withstand alcoholic fluid if needed for disinfection. Avoid
alcohol on the plastic handle.
After cleaning, place the electrodes in the electrode magazine.
Metal rod - earth electrode
The earth electrode can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Use soap and lukewarm water or
alcohol solution.
Electrode cables
The cables can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Use lukewarm water and mild soap. Check the
cable at regular intervals for damage to the insulation. Avoid pulling hard on the cables as this
can cause damage to the connector itself. We also recommend that you have an extra cable in
stock.
10.4 Environment Information - Disposal
Tecarpuls contains both materials that can be recycled and materials that are harmful to the
environment. It is advisable to separate them from each other (when not to be used any more)
and to sort out the harmful parts and parts that can be recycled. By doing so, you contribute to
a better environment.
Follow the local regulations regarding disposal of electrical equipment and accessories.
