With the I n s t r u m e n t button the output power is selected for the activation of rinsing liquids.
When inserting the instruments, please make sure that only instruments with correct screw threads are used.
Tighten the selected instrument at first by hand and then with the provided wrench until its torque limit is reached.
Please note that not all instruments available on the market can be tightened with the provided torque wrench. When
using fixed wrenches, take care not to tighten the instruments too hard, the hand-piece and the instrument can be
damaged.
Change the instruments only when the ultrasonic handpiece is switched off. Do not twist the cable connection of the
hand-piece.
Do not use any instruments, which are deformed or showing wear and tear. Please note the product lifetime of the
instruments.
Work without excessive pressure on the instruments, instrument breakage can cause injuries.
Dispose of the used instruments in an appropriate way. Make sure that a contamination or infection is excluded.
To avoid a heating of the instrument and the spot of treatment, external cooling, should, if possible, be provided. When
working in the root canal, always use sterile water.
Please note that freely swinging, thin instruments may also break without any external pressure, by the ultrasonic
swinging only. Flying splinters can cause injuries.
The device may not be used if the ultrasonic handpiece was disconnected from the handpiece cable. Never touch the
contacts of the handpiece cable!
Always only select program parameters which are appropriate for the instrument.
When disruptions or malfunctions occur, do not continue to use the instrument, contact the manufacturer immediately.
Please make sure that the ultrasonic tips are used according to their scope of application.
Do not use any other ultrasonic handpieces or cables.
During the ultrasonic use the patient may no longer be connected to the Apex cable!
Remove the lip clip from the patient’s mouth if you are working with the ultrasonic handpiece or other handpieces. The
Apex connection may only be used in combination with the EndoPilot motor handpiece. Put the handpieces back into the
holder after use.
The handpiece connection of the ultrasonic handpiece to the cable and the inner contacts have to be absolutely dry.
Watch out for damages of the insulation and of the hand-piece. Use only impeccable hand-pieces and ultrasonic cables.
Damaged insulations may cause electric shocks. Hold the cover of the red socket at the CoPilot always closed.
Use a cofferdam with each treatment, this avoids the inhalation or swallowing of small parts. Please do not leave the
device unattended, make sure that the foot switch is not pressed unintentionally.
