Locate the main shutoff valve on your irrigation system. It is between the main water supply to your home and the sprinkler controller. Alternately, the main shutoff is located outdoors near a faucet bib. The main valve may be in a box in this area to protect it from the elements.
If manual cleaning is not performed immediately, instruments should be placed into a container and soaked with a detergent, a disinfectant/detergent, or an enzymatic cleaner to prevent drying of patient material and make manual cleaning easier and less time consuming.
Another effective way to clean your instruments is to use an ultrasonic cleaner. Both the EC-1000 and IC-1000 are safe to use during ultrasonic cleaning sessions. It is critical to the operation and long life of a surgical instrument to finish the cleaning by applying Roboz IL-1000 Surgical Instrument Lubricant.
