8ml Plastic Oral Low Volume Drench Applicator (A10200)

Directions Of Use

Before Drenching, always read the label:

• Check the label on the pharmaceutical manufacturer’s container for dose rates, precautions, and safety information prior to use.

Use the recommended dose rate:

• Use only the pharmaceutical manufacturers recommended rates.  Refer to the pharmaceutical manufacturer’s dose rate chart or specification.

Check the instrument:

• Before each use, the nozzle should be inspected to ensure there are no sharp edges.  Should this occur, remove with file or emery paper or replace the nozzle.

Drenching Instructions:

1. Fit one end of the feed tube to the adaptor of the backpack, or to the draw-off tube, if a non-collapsible container is being used.  Fix the tube by screwing the spring provided, in an anticlockwise direction over the tube and adaptor.  This will also prevent kinking of the feed tube at this point.
2. If using a backpack with a different size connection, connect a large-bore feed tube to the plastic adaptor, then attach the plastic adaptor to the draw-off cap using a 1/4″ feed tube and spring.  Fit the other end of the tube to the inlet adaptor of the instrument in a similar manner.
3. Prime the handpiece by squeezing the lever several times until an unbroken flow of liquid passes from the nozzle.  The instrument must be held vertically, with the nozzle pointed upwards to ensure the instrument is fully primed.
4. Set the required dose by aligning the front of the piston with the dose marking on the cylinder.
5. Before use and after priming each new container, measure the dose to ensure it is correct.
