The minimum instrument channel width applicable to a particular endoscopic device may be
found on the endoscopic device label.
Insertion and operation of the endoscopic device
1. Ensure that the distal tip of the endoscopic device is closed or retracted into the sheath. In case
of biopsy forceps, operate the forceps to fully close the cups at the tip. There is a certain amount
of resistance when inserting the endoscopic device for the first time. Insert it into the inlet seal
(OF - B190).
2. Hold the shaft at approximately 5 cm away from the inlet seal, and advance the endoscopic device.
