3Before Use
3. Before Use
3.1 Intended Use
E-connect S is a cordless endodontic treatment motorized handpiece with root
canal measuring capability. It can be used to enlarge canals while monitoring the
position of the file tip inside the canal. It can be used as a low-speed motorized
handpiece and device for measuring canal length.
This device must only be used in hospital environments, clinics or dental
offices by qualified dental personnel and not used in the oxygen-rich environment.
3.2 Contraindications
The integrated apex locator of the E-connect S is contraindicated in cases
where patient/user carry medical implants such as pace makers or cochlear
implants etc.
Do not use the device for implants or other non-endodontic dental procedures.
Safety and effectiveness have not been established in pregnant women and
children.
WARNING
Read the following warnings before use:
1. The device must not be placed in humid surroundings or anywhere where it can
come into contact with any type of liquids.
2. Do not expose the device to direct or indirect heat sources. The device must be
operated and stored in a safe environment.
3. The device requires special precautions with regard to electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) and must be installed and operated in strict compliance with the
EMC information. In particular, do not use the device in the vicinity of fluorescent
lamps, radio transmitters, remote controls and do not use this system near the
active HF Surgical Equipment in the hospital. Portable RF communications
equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas)
should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the E-connect S,
including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the
performance of this equipment could result. Do not charge, operate or store at high
temperatures. Comply with the specified operating and storage conditions.
4. Gloves and a rubber dam are compulsory during treatment.
5. If irregularities occur in the device during treatment, switch it off. Contact the
agency.
6. Never open or repair the device yourself，otherwise, void the warranty.

4. Installing the E-connect S
4.1
Installation of the
contra angle
Make sure 4
pins on contra angle
alignment the slots of handpiece, plug
them together until it “click” securely
into place.
The contra angle can be 340 degrees
rotated without take off, make it easy to
watch the LCD in treatment by rotating
the contra-angle.
WARNING
●Make sure the
assembly is
connected properly,
otherwise might
cause unexpected motor reverse, even
hurt the patients
●After connecting the contra angle and
handle,
pull it gently to make sure the
connection is good.
The improve insulation of the contra
angle during co
mbine apex, we
recommend using an insulating sleeve.
You can also use disposable sleeve
(sold separately) instead of insulating
sleeve
NOTE
Without the insulatin
g sleeve, when
performing the apex measurement with
handpiece, wear appropriate insulated
gloves, and make sure the contra angle
does not touch the lips. It is advisable
to use a rubber dam when performing
such treatments.
4.2 Install the file
Turn the file
back and forth until it is
lined up with interior latch groove and
slips into place, lock the file into the
contra angle.
Hold down the push button on the
contra angle and can release the file.

4Installing the E-connect S
Single apex
function only
WARNING
●
Inspect the file head before inserting
the file. Do not use the damaged file
head.
●Make sure the motor is stopped when
inserting and removing files.
●
Be careful when inserting and
rem-oving files to avoid injury to fingers.
●Take care not to touch the Main switch
when putting files in. this will cause the
file to rotate.
●Pull the file gently to make sure that the
file is secure in handpiece properly,
otherwise it may pop out and hur
t the
patient.
4.3
Connecting measuring
wire
If want activity apex measurement
function, uncap the USB cover on
handpiece, insert measuring wire.
Insert lip hook into white slot, insert file
clip into black slot.
NOTE
It’s not necessary to connect file clip
during motor combine apex function, only
during single apex function.
NOTE
Match colors to
connect the lip hook
and file clip, if connect lip hook with
black slot, apex auto start will have no
function.
4.4
Connecting charge
base
Plug the USB of adapter into the
charge base, and plug the other end
into a power outlet, the Power LED on
charge base will light up (green).
NOTE
Only the original adapter could be
used.

4Installing the E-connect S
Put the handpiece all the way into the
charge base, the charge state will show
on the screen.
NOTE
Put the handpiece into the charge base
in the right direction, otherwise the
handpiece will not be recharged.
If only need a base to put the device on
dentist element of dental chair ( without
charge function ), handpiece base is
recommended ( sold separately ) to
instead of charge base.

WARNING
When choice R.L (torque
reverse less), a slow
beep alarm sound appears after starting the motor.
Be careful to use this function, very professional
skill is needed, otherwise has risk of file broken.
Auto Start

Auto Stop
OFF
When the endo file out of root canal, the motor will
not auto stop with default setting, Press <

Apical Action
Reverse
Because of integrated apex locator, when the file
reaches the reference point, the motor will
response according to setting, it can be Reverse,
SlowDown, Stop and Off.
Press <or >to change.
Reverse:
rotation direction changing till the file
upward a little bit by operator, rotation direction will
change back again.
SlowDown: rotation slowdown when approach the
reference point, will reverse if reach.
Stop:
rotation stop when reach the reference
point, upward a little bit and will rotate again.
Off: rotating as usual even if reach the reference
point.
