Warnings
This motor is solely intended for use with the Midwest
®
E Electric Handpiece system. Any other type of use or
alteration to the product is prohibited and can result in personal injury.
Never place an attachment on a running dental motor. Personal injury or damage to the equipment may occur.
Electric Dental Micromotors generate significantly more power than traditional air turbines and air motors.
Due to this increased power and torque, poorly maintained, misused, worn, or damaged handpieces can potentially
generate friction induced heat capable of causing serious burns to patients and staff. The following guidelines should be
followed to ensure safe operation of electric handpieces:
o
Carefully follow these maintenance instructions
o
Use only Midwest maintenance products
o
Examine the handpiece for damage before each use
o
NEVER apply pressure to the chuck release button while the handpiece is rotating or use the handpiece as a
cheek or tongue retractor!
