 Connect the plug of the system into the
power outlet.
 Turn on the STS via the touchpad key "0/1"
(fig. 6.5) on the control unit.
Adjust the set temperature of the water
bath on the control unit as follows:
1. Press the set button (fig. 6.4) and keep it
pressed while setting the temperature.
2. Select the desired temperature via the UP or
DOWN buttons (fig. 6.1 and 6.2).
3. Keep the set button (fig. 6.4) pressed for
another second. Only then, the selected
temperature is stored!!!
 Connect the drain hose made of silicone with
the connecting piece (fig. 8.9) on the lower
right side of the disposable blade carrier TE.
Note:
Via this hose, water which flows down
behind the blade (due to a too high
pump capacity) is guided back into the
pump reservoir.
 Fill pump and feeding line (fig. 7.3) to the
disposable blade carrier TE via attached
disposable syringe with water.
 For this, hold the feeding line (silicone hose)
(fig. 7.3) with inserted syringe over the waste
receptacle (fig. 5.3).
 Pull on the syringe until water flows into the
syringe. The pump and the silicone hose are
then evacuated.
 Via the lateral adjusting wheel (fig. 2.1) set
the pump capacity so that the water does not
flow backwards into the hose nor draining
from the hose (minimum pumping capacity).
 Carefully put the silicone hose onto the
connecting piece (fig. 8.3) of the disposable
blade carrier TE.
 Insert the blade into the disposable blade
carrier TE from the side and clamp it.
 Then set the suitable clearance angle for
disposable blades.
