Operation with Endostar Navigator
Installing the File Electrode
• Inserting and removing files without holding the file release button down will damage the chuck.
• Do not connect the file electrode if the motor handpiece is not connected to the Endostar Navigator.
• Use only Ni-Ti or properly designed stainless steel files.
• Use caution when inserting and removing files to avoid injury to fingers.
• Make sure the device is turned off before inserting or removing files.
• Do not let the cutting part of the file touch the electrode; this will wear it out very quickly.
• Some files cannot be used with this electrode.
(E.g., Those with a file diameter of more than 1.2 mm; Those with chuck shanks that are not perfectly round; Gates-Glidden Drills; and those that have cutting sections with large
diameters such as largo burs.)
• Do not use files shanks larger than the ISO standard: Diameter 2.334 to 2.350 mm
• After use, be sure to take the file out.
• Some files cannot use the built-in electrode to make measurement; always check for conductivity before using a file.
• Make sure the file goes all the way in. Give the file a light tug to confirm it is securely held in place. If the file is not securely placed, it could come out and injure the patient.
• Never use stretched, deformed or damaged files.
• Do not use reciprocal files (ones made to rotate back and forth). These could perforate the apical foramen when they reverse rotation.
• Make sure the screw is tight enough. Otherwise, it might come out and be swallowed. Also, measurements might not be accurate.
It’s easiest to hold the button down if you put your index finger where
the head joints the body.
Use either Nickel-titanium or stainless steel files.
1. Hold down the file release button
2. Insert the file and turn it back and forth until it lines up with
the latch mechanism.
3. Push the file all the way into the latch. Release the file release
button.
