Inspection/Maintenance
Proper care and handling is essential for satisfactory
performance of any surgical device. The previous cautions
should be taken to ensure long and trouble-free service from all
your surgical devices. Inspect devices before each use for

steam permeable/ water soluble lubricant, following the
lubricant manufacturer's instructions.
