V. Instructions for Operation
1. Take the instrument out of the package in the sterile purifying area. To avoid any damage, the instrument shall be handled gently.

4. Hold the cutter stapler in one hand and push the ejector pad with the thumb and forefinger of the other hand to the firing position (as the cutting knife still does not start cutting, the hand feel is light), and then continue pushing the ejector pad uniformly forwards to the front end (the hand feel is heavy, indicating that the cutting knife starts cutting the tissue and suturing the tissue at both sides).

The free handle cover must be first released and the cartridge and anvil support shall be separated; after that, the instrument shall be removed, and then the operation is completed.
