Air and Water Adjustment
1.Air Pressure –
NOTICE Topreventprematuredamagetotheturbine,donot exceed recommendedpressure(see Specications)
when using a Flex Swivel.
Using an air pressure gauge, StarDental®Part #262591 for 4/6-Line, set pressure to 40-42 psi.
If more torque is desired, increase air pressure to a maximum of 42 psi.
If a gauge is not available, set pressure at delivery head allowing 1 psi pressure loss for every foot of tubing. (See
Specications for recommended operational pressure.)
For example, if you want to operate at 40 psi and you are using either 5 feet or 12 feet of tubing, then the pressure
should be set at the delivery head to compensate for the air pressure losses.
5 feet tubing 40 psi + 5 psi = 45 psi
12 feet tubing 40 psi + 12 psi = 52 psi
2. Water Pressure –
Adjust water volume and coolant air pressure at the delivery head to obtain a satisfactory spray mist.
3 Chip Air Pressure–
Adjust to 40 PSI to obtain a satisfactory spray mist.
Use standard length concentric diamond and carbide burs with .0628" nominal
diameter friction grip shanks designed for high speed handpieces. Every
StarDental Diamond Bur meets the specications at right for recommended
lengths. Contact your dealer for a complete list of StarDental Diamond Burs.
StarDental autochuck turbines have the following bur requirements:
Handpiece Operation
CAUTION Never depress the autochuck end cap button or rest the end cap against any part of the oral anatomy
during handpiece operation. Depressing the end cap while a bur is rotating can activate the chuck mechanism and
result in end cap heat-up and/or loss of bur retention.
1. To remove, grasp handpiece rmly so your thumb touches the end cap
and push until a slight ‘click’ is noticed.
2. Pull bur straight out.
3. Release end cap.
Note: Do not use burs that produce excessive noise or do not run concentrically. Do not use burs that are modied,
eccentrically designed, or are bent or ‘soft’ (non-heat treated) shanks.
Autochuck Bur Changing System
1. Insert bur into autochuck until resistance is felt.
2. Depress autochuck end cap button and continue to feed-in bur until it clicks and stops.
3. Release end cap button. Now, apply light inward force to the dental bur.
This will help set the chucking mechanism for initial start up. (Always tug
on bur after it has been installed to conrm that it is secured).
Use only burs with hardened, tempered steel shanks or carbide shanks. Every
StarDental Diamond Bur maintains required hardness. Before use, verify
concentricrotationbyoperatinghandpiece outsidetheoralcavityinasafeplace.
Sterilizable up to 135°C
135°C
DO NOT USE FOR ORAL SURGERY
BEFORE OPERATING THE HANDPIECE, CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AND OBSERVE ALL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS.
Indications For Use
The 430 SWL®Flex High Speed Dental Handpieces are pneumatically driven, hand-held devices intended for use
by trained dental professionals for drilling in the oral cavity. Procedures include, but are not limited to, caries
removal, restorative work and crown preparations.

SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To minimize risk of serious injury:
• Always insert bur the full length of the chuck. If you attempt to extend it from the chuck, the bur may dislodge during
use and possibly injure you or your patient.
To minimize risk of injury or damage to handpiece or auto chuck:
• Replace turbine when handpiece does not run at full speed or runs noisily.
• Use only recommended burs. An improperly clamped or bent bur, usually indicated by sudden high-pitched sound
or increased vibration during use, may dislodge injuring you or your patient.
• Follow these safety instructions:
- Conrm bur is secure by tugging on it after it is loaded
- Verify concentricrotation by operatinghandpieceoutsideoral cavity. Do not use if itdoes not runconcentrically
or runs with excessive noise.
- Do not operate handpiece without an installed bur.
- Always use burs with overall length of less than 24mm. Shank length must be at least 7.3 mm. This includes most
short shank burs. (see Handpiece Operation)
- When using autochuck, never depress end cap while bur is rotating.

Cleaning & Sterilization
It is the responsibility of the user to use only FDA compliant sterilizing equipment and
accessories that are capable of meeting the manufacturers recommendations below.
CAUTION Do not exceed 135°C
To prevent damage to the bur, use an autoclavable bur block.
Do not use:
• dry heat sterilizer • cold sterilizers • ultrasonic cleaners
• chemical disinfectors • immersion techniques • surgical milk
• surface wipes • hand soaps • detergents
• sterilizer bags •surface sprays
containing disinfectants
Limits On Reprocessing Repeated processing has minimal effect on this handpiece. End of life is normally
determined by wear and damage due to use.
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING Clean and sterilize handpieces and burs as soon as practical before rst use and after each patient.
Containment and
transportation: It is recommended that handpieces are reprocessed as soon as is reasonably practical
following use.
Preparation for cleaning: Remove handpiece from swivel. No further disassembly is required.
Cleaning - Automated: Washer-disinfectors are not recommended.
Cleaning - Manual: Cleaning Handpieces:
Internal Surface
Optical Surface
(1 of 2)
Remove debris from external surfaces using a
small brush and isopropyl alcohol. Clean
internal surfaces of the handpiece at the swivel
connection location using a small brush and
isopropyl alcohol. Optical surfaces can be
cleaned with a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl
alcohol. Dry thoroughly. Repeat after each
patient.
Cleaning Diamond Burs:
• After each use, clean the diamond bur by running it against a wet diamond cleaning stone.
• To mechanically clean, the diamond bur should be held in a solution of either enzymatic
presoak, Sparkl® Dental Instrument Cleaner StarDental Part# 205472, or water.
• Rinse the bur thoroughly and allow it to dry, then Sterilize – See Sterilization.
Lubrication: Lubricate - For Lubricated Handpieces ONLY - See 'Lubrication' instruction section
Disinfection: Use steam sterilization exclusively for complete sterility as outlined below.
Maintenance: Use Junk-Out High Speed Chuck Cleaner Kit (263790) once a week prior to sterilization
to ensure optimum working condition of the chuck. Instructions for cleaning the chuck are
included in the Junk-Out kit.
See Turbine Replacement section of this manual for additional information.
Handpiece should be routinely maintained, checked for corrosion, worn parts, etc. and
should be replaced on an as needed basis.
Inspection & function testing: See Handpiece Operation or Troubleshooting sections of this manual.
Packaging: Single: A standard sterilization packaging material must be used. Ensure that the pack is
large enough to contain the handpiece without stressing the seals.
In sets: Handpieces may be loaded into dedicated instrument trays or general purpose
sterilization trays. Ensure that cutting edges are protected and do not exceed the tray
manufacturer’s limit per tray. Wrap the trays using appropriate packaging materials and methods.
Wrapped Instrument
Sterilization: Gravity Type Autoclave:
• Minimum of 15 minutes at 132°C.
• Minimum of 30 minutes at 121° C
Pre-Vacuum Autoclave:
• Minimum of 4 minutes at 132° C
Do not exceed 135° C
Drying: Dry the handpiece for 30 minutes minimum using the sterilization dry cycle and allow the
handpiece to cool to room temperature in bag prior to use. If moisture is present, increase
your sterilizer dry cycle appropriately.
Storage: Store in bag after sterilization until ready to use.
Additional information: Do not exceed the sterilizer manufacturer’s guidelines for load capacity.
Manufacturer contact: See front or back panels of this manual.
