14.2 Foot control pedal
Two foot control pedals are available: a standard pedal (1) and a wide pedal
(2).
NOTE
If you want to change from a standard pedal to the wide pedal, or vice versa,
contact your Planmeca dealer.
The two foot control pedals function differently. For example, to increase the
instrument speed, you must push the standard pedal horizontally, either to
the left or to the right. When you use the wide pedal, you increase the speed
with a vertical movement: the further down you push the pedal, the higher
the instrument speed is.
The functional differences between the standard pedal and the wide pedal
only apply to the operation of the micromotor, turbine and scaler. They do
not apply to the operation of the dental unit, chair or headrest. The
differences are described in the table below.

page 153, and "Scaler" on page 158.
NOTE
When the functionality of the foot control pedal is different for the standard
pedal and the wide pedal, this is clearly indicated in the text and pictures of
this manual. When the text refers to the foot control pedal in general without
making this differentiation, the same functionality applies to both types of
pedal, although the illustration only presents the standard pedal.
