STERILIZATION
This concerns the first use, as well as all subsequent uses.
• Sterilize the contra angle only.
• For the sterilization method, we recommend the autoclave
sterilization method.
9.1
Autoclaving
CAUTION
• Do not lubricate the motor section of the motor handpiece.
• To clean the motor handpiece, do not use any solvent such as
benzine and/or a thinner.
• Before mounting the lubricated contra angle head to the motor
handpiece, wipe off extra oil. Stand on its end or lean it in the
proper position for gravity draining. Mount it after excess oil has
been drained.
• Hold the contra angle head securely to prevent it from flying off by
the pressure of the spray.
• Supply lubricant until it comes out of the handpiece head (for
approx. 2 seconds).
• Do not use a spray can upside down. In such a case, only spray
gas comes out and oil is not sprayed.
• Do not clean any plastic component (control unit, motor
handpiece,…) with aldehydes.
(1)
Brush the dirt off the surface of the contra angle head, and wipe off
with a cotton cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol. Do not use metal
brush.
(2)
Lubricate the head with an appropriate spray.
(3)
Insert the head into an autoclave pouch and seal it.
(4)
Autoclave for 3 min. at 134°C (274°F).
