How to Maintain the Solids Collector
The solids collector aids in preventing solids from
entering the central vacuum system.
At least twice a week, discard and replace the
solids collector screen. This is necessary to ensure
proper suction from the central vacuum, and to
maintain proper treatment room asepsis. For
replacement screens, contact your Authorized
A-dec Dealer and reference Pinnacle P/N 5512.
Limit Switch
If activated, the support link limit switch will
interrupt the base down motion and reverse the
chair to prevent damage.
Follow these
steps . . .
To perform this
function . . .
1
Turn off vacuum, or if vacuum
is on, open the HVE control
valve to facilitate removal of
the solids collector cap.
2
Remove the screen from the
collector.
The solids collector screen is
disposable. Discard following
your local regulations.
CAUTION:
Do not empty the
screen into your
cuspidor.
Doing so could
plug the drain.
3
Insert a new screen in the
solids collector and install
the cap.
