INSTALLING THE NOZZLE
The Nozzle lock, the metal part at the end
of the InsuJet™ device, is illustrated in the
image on the left. This part can be turned
relative to the device, changing from
locked to unlocked position. In unlocked
position, a nozzle can be inserted into
the device. The Nozzle lock contains a
plastic switch, which needs to be pushed
upwards as illustrated in the picture.
The Nozzle lock is then free to turn. Turn
the Nozzle lock so that the arrow points
towards the opened lock symbol to
prepare the device for inserting the nozzle.

Identify the sterile packed nozzle by the
label on its packaging. Remove the nozzle
from its packaging and install the back
of the nozzle into the open end of the
InsuJet™ device, as illustrated.
You should hear and feel a ‘click’ as the
nozzle engages.

Once you have fully inserted the nozzle,
turn the nozzle lock to the left.
Ensure that the nozzle lock arrow points to
the padlock locked position.
