PREPARATION
The Vario Handpiece, Pneumatic Handpiece, Ultrasound Probe
wrenches, the suction connectors, and Ultrasound Probes are provided
non sterile, therefore they must be sterilized per the recommendations
prior to assembly. The Pneumatic Probes and Stone Catcher devices
are single use and provided sterile.
In a sterile manner, attach the Ultrasound Probe to the front end of
the handpiece with clockwise turns until finger tight, then securely
fasten with the 5 mm wrench. Wrenches should be sterilized with
handpieces per sterility guidelines. Attach the angled suction connector
to the back end of the handpiece with slight axial pressure and a ¼
clockwise turn.
Once completed, insert the Pneumatic Probe down the center lumen
of the angled suction adapter, through the Vario Ultrasound Handpiece
and Ultrasound Probe, then screw the Pneumatic Probe with clockwise
turns into the angled suction adapter until finger tight.
Attach the pneumatic handpiece to the Pneumatic Probe with slight
axial pressure and a ¼ clockwise turn until the probe 'clicks' into
place. Once attached, adjust the white dial on the Pneumatic Probe
to ensure the Pneumatic Probe is flush or even with the Ultrasound
Probe. Clockwise turns move the Pneumatic Probe out and counter
clockwise turn pull the Pneumatic Probe in.

Once the probe has been adjusted attach the long end of the tubing
from the Stone Catcher device to the Vario Handpiece and then hand
the Stone Catcher device off the sterile field. Place the short portion
of tubing from the Stone Catcher device into the pinch valve on the
control unit. Also connect the roller clamp to the short tubing to regulate
the flow of suction. Once completed, place the canister in the Stone
Catcher device Holder.
Remove the protective sterilization caps. Connect the plug of the
Vario Ultrasound Handpiece to the control unit by aligning the red dots
and connect the pneumatic handpiece by just pushing the connector
into the control unit. Both connectors must be completely dry before
attachment.
