NOTE: Torque Limitations
The preset torque values and actual torque values are comparable. With the inherent
inefficiencies found in all handpieces, the torque may fluctuate. To verify torque accuracy, we
recommend finishing with a hand torque wrench.
NOTE:
All Handpieces have inherent inefficiencies that will cause torque variations (typically 10%).
Irrigation Pump Controls:
The peristaltic irrigation pump provides irrigation to the handpiece up to a maximum flow of
60 mL/min.
Flow level can be adjusted in percentages from 10% to 100% by pressing the Pump up/down
buttons. Current pump percentage is indicated on the LCD Display.
Depress the pump on/off button to activate/deactivate the pump.
The green LED inside the pump on/off button will illuminate when activated. Irrigant will flow
when the foot switch is depressed.
Mode Button
The Mode button allows the user to change the system configuration from Endo to
Implant, the current mode is displayed on the Console LCD. The torque forces for each
mode differ by a factor of 100. (100 G•cm = 1 N•cm.)
(The delicate nature of NiTi endodontic
files require torque levels in G•cm, while the nature of osteotomies and the tapping and threading of implants
require the higher torque level measured in N•cm.)
Max Torque button characteristics are
different in Endo and Implant mode (see page 10).
Library Button:
The Library button is used to access the Endodontic File Library and to program the
Preset Buttons with User Defined Settings.
To access Endodontic File Library from Endo Mode:
From the Endo mode, press the Library button. The following options will be displayed:
Do you want to access the file library?
Press: 1=Yes, 2=No, Mode=Escape
Press 1 to access file library. The following options will be displayed:
Use File Series: GT Acc & 20s YELLOW
Press: 1=Next, 2=OK, Mode=Escape
NOTE: SAVING CUSTOM SETTINGS
After calibrating the handpiece and setting the ratio, speed, torque, and pump to the desired
parameters, the user-defined custom settings can be saved to one of the six Preset Buttons
for instant recall at a later time. Refer to Reprogramming Preset Buttons section on page 12
for complete reprogramming instructions .
