User Responsibility
Read this guide thoroughly, including all regulatory information and product specifications before use.
Intended Use
A dental delivery system is intended to serve as a base as well as supply air and water for other dental devices in a dental office
environment. There are no contraindications for this product which conflict with EU direction.
Expected Service Life
With proper maintenance and service, Forest Dental products are designed for a defined “service life” under
normal use (based on approximately 50 patients per week) of 15 years from the date of manufacture, with the exception of serviceable
components. Some components may become obsolete due to changes in technology or due to product improvements and may necessitate
product updates or upgrades. At the end of the defined service life, all products require examination by a trained service technician prior to
continued use. Following this, additional examinations are required every 5 years.
NOTE: If your delivery system is not going to be used for an extended period of time, e.g. weekends and holidays, it is recommend to air purge the
handpiece tubing water coolant lines and the syringe water line. This will help prevent any stagnation of fluids inside the water lines.
NOTE: Always consult the instructions of the disinfectant manufacturer to be certain the solution is not harmful to people or the materials it will
come in contact with.

Self-contained Clean Water System Water Line Maintenance
Weekly
Daily
The most convenient way to maintain the water lines in a dental delivery system with a self-contained water system is to empty the water bottle at
the end of each work day and purge the water system of the unit. Install an empty dry bottle and repressurize the system. Purge the syringe water
line and each handpiece water coolant line until only air flows through them. Turn the unit off and allow the lines to dry overnight.
NOTE: When performing an air purge, always allow the empty bottle to become fully pressurized before starting the purge.
1.
Add a disinfectant agent according to manufacturer’s recommendations to a disinfected bottle.
This will be referred to as the disinfectant bottle.
CAUTION: Use of certain cleaning or disinfecting agents may cause damage or affect the performance of the dental equipment’s water system.
Forest Dental’s warranty does not cover damage to equipment resulting from the use of such agents. Always follow the agent manufacturer’s
instructions.
CAUTION: No user-servicable parts are located in the dental system control head.
2.
Fill the disinfectant bottle to the neck with treatment solution and install it on the dental unit’s self-contained water system.
3.
Flush the solution through the handpiece and syringe tubings into a sink, basin or bucket by operating the dental unit. Flush the system
according to the agent’s instructions.
4.
Remove the disinfectant bottle and install an empty bottle. The empty bottle will allow you to purge the water system with pressurized air.
5.
Holding the handpiece tubings and the syringe over a sink, basin or bucket, open the dental unit handpiece flush valve and the syringe
until all the solution has been purged from the system.
6.
Remove the empty bottle.
7.
Install a bottle of treatment water.
8.
Operate the dental unit handpiece flush valve and the syringe for 30 seconds to purge the water system of air and disinfectant.
Make sure no disinfectant remains.
When using self-contained water systems, all plastic bottles should be inspected for damage prior to every use. If a bottle appears to be damaged
in any manner, it should be replaced. Bottles should never be cleaned in a dishwasher. The air pressure in the bottle should not exceed 40 PSI.
Your Dental Unit Water System Is Now Ready For Use.
NOTE: Refer to service manual and Installation Instructions for complete technical descriptions.
