IMPORTANT
Please read this manual carefully before attemptingtousetheOlympus OFP as it contains importantinformation on the proper care,
handling and use of the equipment. In addition, read the manuals of any other units (endoscope, light source, etc.) that form part
of the system.
The safety and performance of an endoscopic systemdepends not only on the endoscope but also on the ancillary equipment used
with it. Ensure any ancillary equipment is compatible with the endoscope and other equipment used. These instructions should be
retained for reference during the life of the product. If you have any questions concerning the material contained in this manual,
please contact your Olympus representative or nearest Olympus office.
INTENDED USE
The Olympus OFP is a peristaltic flushing pump intended for use in medical facilities under the direction of a trained physician. The
OFP has been designed to be used with Olympus EVIS EXERA gastrointestinal videoscopes hav ing an auxiliary water inlet as part
of an Olympus endoscopic imaging system to facilitate washing of gastric and colonic mucosa to remove blood, faeces and other
organic matter, enabling improved visualisation, diagnosis and therapy during endoscopic procedures.
Do not use the equipment for any purpose other than its intended application.

2 OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
2.1 Explosion hazard -- never install or use the OFP within the zone of risk of flammable gases.
2.2 The OFP should only be used in a medical facility under the direction of a trained physician.
2.3 The operator must assess the condition of the patient and use clinical judgement to set the flow rate from the pump to a
suitable level to avoid patient trauma. The flow control should always be set to MIN at the start of the procedure and be
increased progressively to a level commensurate with the clinical condition of the patient and degree of washing required.
Note that when the flow control is set to MAX, the flow rate through the washing channel of the endoscope will be in
excess of that which can be delivered when using a 50ml syringe.
2.4 Use only in conjunction with Olympus EVIS EXERA series endoscopes having an auxiliary water inlet.
2.5 Only use the Olympus auxiliary water tube (MAJ--855) and irrigation tube supplied to connect the OFP to the endoscope,
otherwise patient safety may be compromised or damage to the pump may occur.
2.6 Note that the luer lock connector on the MAJ--855 which attaches to the OFP filter includes a one--way valve to prevent
backflow -- do NOT use the MAJ--855 without this connector in place, or irrigation tube and filter, container contamination
and damage may result.
2.7 The irrigation tube and filter MUST be autoclaved before use.
2.8 The irrigation tube and filter MUST be replaced daily -- failure to do so may lead to patient infection and a reduction in
equipment performance.
2.9 Reprocess the MAJ--855 following each use according to the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with the product.
2.10 Check the “USE BY” date of the tubing as indicated on the packaging label. Do not use any tubes beyond the specified
“USE BY” date.
2.11 Never allow the fluid container to run dry, otherwise air will be supplied to the patient.
2.12 To prevent free--flow of fluid to the patient, do not open the pump cover when the OFP is connected to an endoscope which
is inserted into the patient and ensure the OFP is positioned below patient level.
2.13 If the filter becomes blocked or the irrigation tube from the pump to the fluid container is blocked or kinked, the flow rate will
be noticeably reduced. Check the tube for kinks or blockages and the filter for contamination, replace if necessary.
2.14 Should the OFP be operated with a blocked endoscope or filter,damage to the irrigation tube may occur. In this event, care
must be taken when disconnecting the fluid path as the system may be pressurised. To depressurise the system, the pump
head should be opened to allow fluid back into the bottle. This must only be carried out with the endoscope removed from
the patient. The filter and irrigation tube MUST be replaced before the unit is reused.
2.15 Always switch off the pump before fitting or replacing the irrigation tube.
2.16 When the irrigation tube has been correctly installed and the pump operated,do not disturb the position ofthe irrigation tube
eg: by opening the pump head, otherwise the irrigation tube must be replaced. Failure to do so may lead to a reduction in
equipment performance.
2.17 Periodically inspect the MAJ--855 for obvious signs of wear or damage and replace if necessary or as recommended in the
manufacturers instructions.
2.18 Periodically inspect the fluid container for obvious signs of wear or damage and replace if necessary.
2.19 Always empty the fluid container before moving the equipment. Care should be taken to obtain a firm grip underneath the
body of the equipment before moving. The fluid container holder must never be used as a hand hold or carrying handle.
2.20 Store and use the OFP within the environmental conditions described in Section 8; failure to do so may lead to equipment
malfunction or failure.
2.21 Only use replacement parts as specified in Section 7. Failure to do so may lead to equipment malfunction or failure.
