knob

English to Spanish Other Engineering (general) knob
1. Place the tissue within the calibrations on the instrument forks as the knife will only cut to the “cut” mark.

2. Absence of an audible click indicates the instrument is not properly locked or the tissue is too thick and use of the instrument is contraindicated.

3. Do not rotate the firing knob during firing.

4. Clean the anvil fork of the instrument after each firing to ensure proper staple formation on subsequent firings.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Phoenix III

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Puede ser una manivela, pero para sabe cuál usar, deberías saber qué forma tiene este "knob".

Pomo giratorio o ruleta

Un saludo,

Yo entiendo perilla como un interruptor de perilla y creo que aquí no es el caso, se trata de un pomo o incluso botón giratorio.

Un saludo
