6.7.2. Reciprocating File Systems
WaveOne ™ and RECIPROC ® files are designed specifically for use in reciprocation, whereby
the instrument is driven first in a cutting direction and then reverses to release the instrument.
The angles of reciprocation are precise and specific to the design of the instrument and to the
X-SMART
™
Plus.
If one of above mentioned reciprocating files has been chosen, the display reading below the
system name will show RECIPROCATING.
The reciprocating files of the system are shown on the right part of the display.
WARNING
Do not use files designed for continuous rotation in reciprocating motion.
NOTES
•
For reciprocating files, the settings including speed and torque cannot be adjusted.
•
Reciprocating files can be distinguished from continuous rotary files by their special design:
the spiral is inverted and the shaft is equipped with a colored plastic ring.
•
In reciprocating motion, the auto reverse function is disabled.
•
In reciprocating motion, a sound appears when the load approaches the torque limit value.
If this occurs, do not press the file into the root canal, remove the file from the root canal
and clean the flutes.
•
If the maximum torque is achieved, the motor will stop. If this occurs, remove the file from
the root canal, clean the flutes and start again.
