ENDOSCOPE REPROCESSOR OER-Pro Operation Manual
• Replace the water filter in a clean environment. Do not touch
the inner side of the water filter or allow dust to get in it.
• Always be sure to attach the water filter. Otherwise,
water-borne microorganisms and particulates in the water
may contaminate the device piping and prevent effective
reprocessing of the endoscope.
Hold the water filter wrench at a point closer to you than to
the projection on the grip. If you hold it at a point closer to the
water filter housing connector than the projection, you might
catch your finger in the mechanism.
• Once the water filter housing has been fully loosened, hold it
with both hands and remove it. If the case is not fully
loosened, your hands may slip and you could be injured.
• When the water filter is removed, residual water flows from
the connectors. Therefore, you should cover the water filter
with the water filter housing when removing so that the
residual water is caught in the case. If the water tray fills with
residual water, remove the water tray and drain it.
