1 - 3 S a f e t y P r e c a u t i o n s The PSD-10 should be used only in a medical facility under the supervision of a trained physician. The PSD-10 is designed (floating) to function integrally with insulated patient attachments (active electrode and patient plate) to prevent operator/patient shock.
Page 9
Do not contact these cords with the patient or metallic portion of an operating table, etc. The PSD-10 should not be used in conjunction with electrical apparatus whose safety against leakage current is not guaranteed. Radio-frequency and spark discharge “noise” may adversely affect other electro-medical equipment being used in the proximity.
DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS Selected Current Indicators Light when the switch under the indicator is pressed. Output Test Indicators Indicate normal or abnormal test con- Output Indicators ditions. Light to indicate the selected current (CUT, BLEND or COAG) is being delivered Defective Connection Indicators when the footswitch is depressed.

5-1 Installation of PSD-10 Check that all safety precautions described in Section 1 – 3 are met. Place the PSD-10 on a stable surface in a horizontal position. Ventilation must not be obstructed. Carts and stands must be of adequate size and strength to support load.
Red mark 5-4 Connection of S-P Cord Connect the S-P cord to the PATIENT connector on the PSD-10, with the red dot facing upward. Push the plug until it is locked in place. Red mark Connect the P-cord connector to the Patient-plate.
INSPECTION ELECTROSURGICAL SYSTEM Power Feeding Turn ON the power switch. The power indicator and LED (Light-Emitting Diode) in- dicators on the front panel will light and the cooling fan will be heard. If the unit fails to turn on, inspect the power cord connection. Turn on power switch.
Page 17
WARNING light is glowing red. Re-connect the S-P cord correctly and repeat above procedure. (If the red WARNING light fails to go out, consult an Olympus service center.) Do not touch the Patient-plate; burns may occur.

Clip combination with CD-3U/L or CD-4U/L. Be sure to perform the Output Check 1 for the PSD-10 to ensure the proper connection of the system. Connect the A-cord to the PSD-10 (ACTIVE connector) and to the electro- surgical accessory (A-cord plug on SD-handle).
Page 19
Checking the Output Adjustment Switches Press a given output adjustment switch (0.5 to 5.0): the indicator above the switch should light. Checking the Current Selector Switches Press a given current selector switch: the waveform pattern above the switch should light. Checking the Connection Monitor Connection between S-cord and endoscope Loosen the clamping ring on the S-cord connector.
ENDOSCOPIC ELECTROSURGERY This section outlines a general procedure for endoscopic electrosurgery. The endoscopist should evaluate the clinical factors involved and decide on the specific details of the procedure. 7-1 Precautions against Patient/Operator Burns To prevent accidental burns, attention must be paid to the following points. The patient should not come into contact with grounded metal objects (e.g., iron bar of bed, external surface of an appliance).
7 - 2 S e t u p o f P a t i e n t - p l a t e Incomplete attachment of the Patient-plate may cause patient burns. Put gauze pads which are slightly larger than the Patient-plate and moistened with physiological saline or conductive paste (e.g., Conductive Gel #1103, 3M) on the Patient-plate.
7-3 Electrosurgery The type of output current and its intensity must be determined by refer- ence to related papers and based on one’s own experience. Power Feeding Turn ON the power switch. Selection of Current Press the desired current selector switch (CUT, BLEND or COAG). If none of the current selector switches are pressed, none of the current indicators above them will be lit;...

Connection of A-Cord SD-handle Connect the A-cord to the PSD-10 and to the electrosurgical accessory. A-cord Only Olympus A-cord MA-255 is compatible with this equipment. As an added precaution, connect to the accessory as the final step before de- pressing the footswitch.
7-4 After Operation Turn OFF the power switch. Disconnect the power plug from the hospital grade receptacle if the PSD-10 is not going to be sued for an extended period. Non-Controlled Document...
Surfaces must be thoroughly dry before use. Wipe panel clean. 8 - 2 S t o r a g e Wind the power cord around the hanger on the rear of the PSD-10. Band Place the PSD-10 on a stable surface in the horizontal position.
9-1 Replacement of Fuse If the PSD-10 ceases to operate and the malfunction cannot be isolated, check the fuse holder on the rear of the PSD-10 after unplugging the power cord from the hospital grade receptacle. Be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC mains.
