loudly?
!If you detect anything unusual, refer to
chapters “For questions or problems”
and “Warranty declaration” on
page33.
!If the HAWK PEN is no longer operating
safely, take it out of service and consult
your local specialist retailer.
6 Using the HAWK PEN
6.1 Setting the needle protrusion
CAUTION
Risk of injury from excessive protrusion
of needle
A large needle protrusion permits
a deep piercing depth. If needle
protrusion and piercing depth are
excessive, this can damage the
subcutaneous layer.
!Start with just a short length of
needle protruding.
!Switch on the power.
!Adjust the needle protrusion while the
HAWK PEN is switched on; to do this,
turn the handle.
Turning clockwise increases the
protrusion of the needle:
Turning anti-clockwise reduces
theprotrusion of the needle:
!Check the needle protrusion on the
HAWK PEN.
If the needle protrusion changes
accidentally during operation because
the handle does not remain fixed
in position, then clean the inside of
the handle, the thread of the drive,
the grooves and the small O-ring
thoroughly (see Page31). If the
problem persists, replace the small
O-ring in addition (see Page32).
If the problem still persists, consult
your local specialist retailer.
6.2 Setting the piercing frequency
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to high piercing
frequency
If the piercing frequency is too high,
theskin is cut.
+
Max.
-
Min.
Cheyenne HAWK PEN

30
EN
!Always start at a low piercing
frequency, e.g. 70.
!Switch on the power.
!Set an appropriate piercing frequency.
The piercing frequency must suit the
characteristics of the customer's skin,
the needle protrusion and the individual
piercing depth when working, as well
as the operating speed.
With a Cheyenne Power Unit
thepiercing frequency can be adjusted in
10increments using the arrow keys.
With a third-party power unit, thepiercing
frequency can be adjusted via the output
voltage: The permitted voltage range
of approx. 6 to 13V equates roughly
to a piercing frequency range of 70 to
160 needle insertions per second. 10V
equates to about 130 needle insertions
per second at idle speed. If the output
voltage exceeds about13V, the HAWK
PEN switches oautomatically.
6.3 Loading with ink
!Immediately before use, dip the tip of the
safety cartridge in the desired colour of ink
for 2 to 3 seconds with the unit running.
Avoid contact with the ink container.
The ink is picked up by the needles.
Alternatively, the ink can be filled into
the opening on the safety cartridge
using a sterile pipette.
7 Cleaning and maintaining
the HAWK PEN
CAUTION
Risk of short circuits and risk of mild
electric shocks
If components of the HAWK PEN are
dismantled and cleaned while still
powered, there is a risk of mild electric
shock and damage to the electronics in
the drive unit.
!Before starting any cleaning and
maintenance work, switch o
thepower supply to the HAWK PEN.
ATTENTION
Damage to drive caused by fluid
If cleaning fluid or disinfectant gets
inside the drive, this can corrode the
electrical and mechanical components.
!Never immerse the drive in cleaning
fluid or disinfectant.
!Never use an autoclave or an
ultrasonic bath to clean the drive and
the connecting cable.
!Pay attention to compatibility of
materials when selecting cleaning
agents and disinfectants (see
thefollowing section
ATTENTION
Accidental changes to the needle
protrusion length due to greasing
If the handle or O-rings are greased,
this may cause the handle to become
too easy to turn. That in turn can cause
the needle protrusion to be altered
accidentally.
!Never apply grease to the handle or
the O-rings.
