AquaCare: Installation
Before adding the powder to complete installation of the AquaCare, you can check that the
installation has been performed correctly using the following procedure:
A. Check that the machine is off.
B. Sterilise the handpiece. Refer to MAINTENANCE: STERILISING THE HANDPIECE, Pg 31.
C. Fit the 0.6mm silver handpiece to the machine.
D. Fit a new disposable feedline and tip.
E. Check that the fluid container has been fitted.
F. Make sure you are in full control of the handpiece before turning the machine on.
G. Switch the On/Off selector to position On.
H. Press the foot pedal down to the DRY position (1). (See PARTS AND FEATURES: FOOT
PEDAL, Pg 11). Check that air comes out of the nozzle. There should be no fluid or
powder.
I. Press the foot pedal down to the WASH position (2). After a few seconds you should
observe the flow of air change to a fine mist.
J. Turn the Fluid volume dial, observing the spray. Place a paper towel under the nozzle at
a distance of 25-30mm to make the effect easier to see. The Fluid volume range varies
between:
DROPLET - Small quantity of water. Very fine mist.
SPRAY - Larger quantity of water. Heavier spray.
K. Set the powder chamber selector to the prep position. Press the foot pedal fully down to
the CUT position (3). You should hear the vibrator start to operate. Turn the media dial to
set the gauge to the midway position. The nozzle will continue to spray a mixture of fluid
and water, but no powder as this has not yet been installed. Then change the powder
chamber selector to the prophy position and repeat the process to set the other media
dial.
L. Turn the Power dials, observing the Pressure gauges. The pressure ranges are:
2 - Low energy, gentle cleaning/polishing action.
4 - Medium energy, medium cutting action.
6 - High energy, very fast cutting action.
M. Switch the machine off.
N. Always place back the handpiece in its holder after use.
Installation Test
If your observations do not match the procedure above, check that all INSTALLATION
sections have been completed correctly. If installation problems continue to occur,
