The insertion tube should be angulated as required for guidance or
observation. See “Checking the angulation functions” (page 42) for
details about angulation operation.
NOTE
• Increasing the insertion tube looping amount (bending amount) decreases the maximum
angulation angle limit of the angulation section. Keep the insertion tube as straight as
possible to get the best operation from the instrument.
• Angulation tends to be difficult to achieve under low temperatures.
• Do not withdraw the insertion tube while its angulation is locked or while your finger is on the
[ANGLE] joystick. Doing so can damage the insertion tube and/or object being observed.
• Should any abnormality be detected during an angulation operation, do not try and force the
angulation operation to continue. Doing so can damage the insertion tube or object being
observed.
