INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE HIGHSURG30
DEVICE PREPARATION
1 Sterilize the motor (the motor is not sterile on delivery).
If the motor has already been sterilized:
When removing the motor from the sterile packaging, ensure that the sterile packaging is not damaged and that
the sterility indicator confirms sterility (if no sterility indicator is provided, the sterile packaging must at least
show the date on which the shelf life of the sterile item is due to expire).
2 Insert the stand for the irrigation fluid into the stand holder of the control unit.
3 Plug the motor plug of the electronic motor into one of the motor sockets.
4 Where appropriate, plug the motor plug of asecond electronic motor into a motor socket.
If you want to use a handpiece with the 80’000rpm high speed motor and change its parameter, then the
motor must be plugged-in in one of the motor sockets. Otherwise only the values of the standard 50’000 rpm
motor will be displayed.
Note: Always plug in the motor first, then change the parameters of the selected handpiece.
5 Plug the pedal plug into the pedal socket at the rear of the control unit.
6 Attach the sterilized handpiece to the electronic motor. Press the handpiece firmly onto the electronic mo-
tor until it clicks into position. Check the correct seating by a slight counter movement of the handpiece.
7 Assembling of the tubing set: Decide whether you will use the tubing set REF6024, for the cooling of a
single handpiece or if you need to use the tubing set REF6025 with an integrated 3 way tap for cooling
two handpieces at the same time with the use of two motors.
Use only NOUVAG tube sets REF6024 and REF6025, otherwise the correct function cannot be guaranteed.
Check the expiry date of the tubing set and ensure that the packaging is not damaged. Using non-sterile
tubing sets can result in serious infection and, in extreme cases, can cause death.
When inserting the tubing set, watch the arrow on the cover of the pump compartment. It indicates the flow
direction of the cooling liquid.
Do not regulate the amount of irrigation fluid using the roller clamp on the tubing set; with the HighSurg30,
this is regulated instead using the integrated pump. For this reason, make sure to open the roller clamp as
far as it will go.  S  S     > 

The oscillation period for oscillating shavers is determined by the speed. If the oscillation period is set too
low for the set speed, it switches automatically to the next possible level. This ensures that the shaver knife
makes a full rotation for the speed setting.

P | L  > , « Handpiece existing». That makes finding the right handpiece in the handpiece
list easier, because the list of available handpieces becomes shorter.
STEP 2 TEST OF HANDPIECE AND CONTRA ANGLE
To make sure the handpieces work in perfect condition, the HighSurg 30 can check them in a test run for their
torque behavior. This is a simple procedure, which helps to detect disorders and defects in the handpieces at an
early stage, to ensure safety during application to the patient.
After you take care of all prior preparations such as sterilization, maintenance and care of handpieces, device
preparation and the selection of the handpiece in use, the test procedure can be performed.
1 Select the correct handpiece,corresponding to the one mounted on the motor and double check on the display
for correct selection.
2 Hold motor with mounted handpiece in your hand at safe distance to your body.
3 Press both « Speed»and« Speed» keys simultaneously.
«Testing the handpiece XX» is displayed.
Motor and handpiece start running and pass several speed cycles up to maximum speed.
After a tone is emitted, the test is finished. The display shows the message «Handpiece is OK».
If a handpiece does not work within the parameters of the test procedure, even after cleaning and lubrica-
tion, the device displays a red-illuminated error message: « HandpieceXXisfaulty». This indicates insuffi-
cient lubrication, soiling, wear, or a technical defect. Such handpieces must be repaired or replaced.

STEP 3 SETTING THE SPEED
The possible speed range depends on the attached handpiece. The maximum speed within this speed range can
be restricted to the required value. Using the pedal, the speed can be varied from the minimum speed up to the
maximum speed as set.
1 Press « Speed» to increase or «Speed» to decrease the maximum speed.
When the key is pressed continuously the speeds will be shown in fast forward mode.
The following handpieces run only with one specific speed, which cannot be changed:

STEP 4 SETTING THE TORQUE
Once the speed has been selected, the torque can be determined from the corresponding torque range.
1 Press « Torque/Frequency» to increase or «Torque/Frequency» to decrease the maximum torque range.
By pressing the key continuously, the torques are shown in fast forward mode.
When using the Shaver handpiece in oscillation mode, this pair of keys is used to set the time required for one
revolution of the shaver blade (time for a complete rotation of the shaver blade). In this function, the arrow indi-
cates both directions.
The following handpieces run on a fixed torque:

TORQUE LIMITER
The device has an automatic torque limiter, which functions like a torque wrench. If the attached instrument
meets resistance, the torque increases as far as the maximum level and the speed then reduces, if necessary to
standstill. The torque on the instrument is maintained. If the load on the instrument reduces, the speed increases
again up to the set maximum level.
This process can easily be seen on the display by means of the bar chart. The segments of the bar chart fill up as
the resistance on the instrument increases. When the torque has reached the set maximum, that is, when all seg-
ments are visible, the speed reduces. As soon as the pressure on the instrument is reduced, the torque falls again.
The bar chart on the display regresses and the instrument speed increases again.
PROGRAM MEMORY
When switching the HighSurg 30 off, all the settings, made by the user are automatically stored in each program
place. At switch off from the HighSurg 30 all the settings made by the user are automatically stored in each pro-
gram place. The display shows every setting of the selected program place. The following parameters are automatically
stored:
//Handpiece/Transmission ratio //Maximal speed //Maximal torque //Pump On/Off //Pump performance
//Shaver oscillation period
To change a program, go to the specific parameter and change it. When the device is switched off all parameters
are automatically stored under the same program number.
In the configuration menu the number of storable programs can be limited for each motor separately.
In the configuration menu it can be chosen what the display shows at start-up of the device. Choose
between Program 1 with Motor1 or the last used setting before the device was switched off.
