Section 12: System Maintenance and Care
Daily Maintenance
It is recommended that you perform the following
maintenance procedures to help minimize bio-film
formation in the water tubing of your ultrasonic
scaler which could affect the water flow to the
ultrasonic insert and scaling performance.
Start-Up Procedures at the beginning of the
day:
1. Open the manual shut-off valve on the dental
office water supply system.
2. Turn the system ON using the power ON/OFF
switch. (see illustration on page 7) Verify the power
indicator light is on.
3. Set the power control knob to minimum setting.
4. Set the water control knob to maximum.
5. Hold the sterilizable sleeve of the handpiece
(without an insert installed) upright over a sink or
drain. Activate the foot control and flush the water
line for at least 2 minutes.
6. Place a sterilized insert into the sterilizable sleeve
of the handpiece and set the water control knob to
your preferred operating position.
Between Patients:
1.
Remove the ultrasonic insert and sterilizable
sleeve of the handpiece used, clean and sterilize.
2.
Clean and disinfect the surfaces of the cabinet,
power cord, Flight handpiece cable set assembly*,
control knobs, foot pedal and Flight handpiece
cable set assembly by applying an approved
non-immersion type disinfectant solution*
carefully following the instructions provided by
the disinfectant solution manufacturer. To clean
system, generously spray disinfectant solution on
a clean towel and wipe all surfaces. Discard used
towel. To disinfect system, generously spray
disinfectant on a clean towel and wipe all surfaces.
Allow disinfectant solution to air dry. Do not spray
disinfectant solution directly on the ultrasonic
scaler.
3.
Place a sterilized handpiece sleeve on the
handpiece cable. Set power to minimum. Hold the
handpiece sleeve over a sink or drain and flush
the water line at maximum water flow for 30
seconds.
4.
When ready, place a sterilized insert into the
handpiece sleeve.
5.
Please consider using an FDA approved sheath for
the cable and entire handpiece or at least cover
the handpiece from the fastening ring to the cable
when the sleeve is sterilized between patients.
*Note: If the power intensity adjustment knob is
set to minimum, you might not activate the system
enough and get no water flow or no vibration. In
that case, please set the power intensity adjustment
knob to the middle, then activate the foot control
and then turn the power intensity adjustment knob
to your preferred setting.
