AquaCare: Maintenance
Purging The AquaCare
PURGING THE FLUID
When replacing the fluid bottle, the machine will need to be purged of any air that may
have entered the system.
A. Turn the media setting to minimum position. This will prevent unnecessary powder
being expelled from the handpiece.
B. Point the handpiece in a safe direction (e.g. the inlet of the evacuation unit).
C. Press the foot pedal to position 2 (wash) for at least 10 seconds.
D. The machine will expel air from the handpiece and purge the fluid through the line.
E. The procedure is complete when a continuous fine mist sprays from the nozzle and
no air pockets can be seen in the smaller tube.
F. Reset the media volume as desired.
We recommend that the fluid bottle is checked prior to surgery to ensure it will not run
out whilst working. Replace the container if the level is low prior to surgery.
Always purge the fluid for 20 seconds before initial use and at the start of every
day.
PURGING THE POWDER
This will empty the feed tube and handpiece of any previous powder and charge them
with the new powder.
A. Hold the handpiece and direct the nozzle into the inlet of the evacuation unit.
B. Press the foot pedal to position 3 (cut) for at least 10 seconds.
C. Observe the flow of abrasive powder as it is emitted from the nozzle.
D. The procedure is complete when the flow of powder is uniform.
This charges the feed tube and handpiece with the new abrasive powder and flushes
out any previous powder. We recommend that this procedure is carried out every time
the powder is changed.
