Maintaining your Precision Medical PM60-3HG EasyVac Aspirator is essential for its efficient operation. Here's a straightforward guide to cleaning it:

1. Power Down and Disconnect: Begin by turning off the EasyVac Aspirator and disconnecting it from all power sources before initiating any cleaning procedures.

2. Inline Hydrophobic Filter Care: The Inline Hydrophobic Filter is not designed for cleaning. If the filter becomes clogged or visibly contaminated, it requires replacement. To replace the filter, follow these steps:

   • Detach the filter assembly from the Suction Canister. Then, remove the canister from the Aspirator.
   • Discard the old filter.
   • Install a new filter (Part #1690), ensuring all tubing and elbow connections are securely reattached.

3. Cleaning Exterior Surfaces: For the exterior components:

   • Ensure the Aspirator is disconnected from the power supply and any connected tubing.
   • Use a cloth or sponge moistened with a solution of mild soap and water to gently clean the external surfaces.
   • Dry all components thoroughly with a clean cloth or paper towel.
   • Store the Aspirator in a clean environment, away from grease, oil, or any other potential contaminants.

Regular cleaning, according to these guidelines, will help preserve the lifespan and optimal performance of your EasyVac Aspirator. For specific instructions or precautions, please consult the original user manual.
