Re: Addendum to STA^® Compact, STA^® Compact CT, STA-R^® and STA-R^® Evolution Using Soft Stylets: Preventative Maintenance Optimization and Operator's Security

Dear Valued Customer,

Please find, in the link above, an addendum that details a change in maintenance for your instrument. Stago continues to evaluate and improve our processes and has found that the continued use of metal stylets to clean out the needles on a weekly basis is not required.

As per the addendum, only use the soft stylet (Item number 80343) if you suspect a clog. Do not pass the stylet through a cap-piercing needle.
