Quick chuck:
The quick chuck in the grinding head holder allows you to change grinding heads, easily, quickly and
smoothly. The shaft locks automatically as soon as the grinding head starts to rotate.
All-in-One control knob:
For ease of use, you can regulate both direction and speed of rotation with just the one control knob.
Safety Stop:
If the device develops excessive speed and pressure during grinding, the electronics will respond by
switching off the device. In this case, you must set the rotation switch (
B
) of the device to zero (middle
position) and start the device again.
A.
Keep the inner parts of the handpiece as free as possible from dust and grinding residue.
B.
Remove dirt from the outer surface of the handpiece with a cloth moistened with alcohol. Prevent
moisture from entering the unit.
C.
Only use grinding heads with a dental standard size of 2.332 - 2.350 mm (0.091 - 0.093 inches)
and avoid using rusted or damaged grinding heads. Their false usage may lead to excessive wear
and tear in the ball bearings. Adhere to the safe speed and the safety measures stipulated by the
manufacturer.
D.
Do not expose the handpiece to strong knocks as this may damage the ball bearings. If the handpiece
should fall down, check whether the grinding head is bent. Pay closer attention to noise and/or heat
generation. Send the handpiece immediately in for repair should it be damaged.
Skin and nail care is not merely a matter that is indicated when suffering correspondingly, it is also a cosmetic
matter. Start with cutting and forming toenails. They absolutely must be filed straight in order to hinder nails gro-
wing into the skin. Micro-fine filing using the sapphire disc protects against ingrown nails. The micro-fine files
with the sapphire disc prevent an ingrowth. Troublesome calluses always develop in the areas where the foot is
over-stressed, mostly the heel, the front balls and the side of the big toe. Treat the callus using the sapphire cone
or even better with the drainage grinder. Repeat this procedure regularly. Under no circumstances should you
take radical measures when removing the callus. Ingrown toenails can – as needed – be loosened gently using
the small cutter. Thick lignified nails can be ground off slowly from the top and filed thinner from the sides.
Crumbly nail areas can also be cleaned using the fine sapphire cutter. Corns are the painful result of a slow
callus process. They are calluses with an externally hardened part which is soft inside. Remove the upper
callus with the sapphire cone and then work further using the small sapphire cutter. This already removes
the pressure. Deeply sunken corns should not be removed by oneself; they should be removed by a doctor.
If skin and nail care are carried out systematically using the
Promed
devices and accessories, regular care
becomes a positive experience. The special abrasive wheels are described more closely on the following
pages. The abrasive wheels are available in various forms and degrees of hardness and can be reordered at
any time. Ask your specialist dealer.
