quire additional training.
The F1 Dental Chair is a medical device designed to be used in dental, ENT, podiatry,
cosmetic, eye or other similar procedures. The product is intended for professional use
only. The product is not intended to be used in surgical operations other than dental.
Dental Treatment System F1 is designed to be used in immobile premises only. Using the

Beware of damaging the instrument bridge arms when lifting the backrest of the
chair.
The Instrument bridge is used to hold the instruments so that they are conveniently avail-
able for use when needed.
Instrument Bridge
Swivel arms guide the instrument hoses, so that they are located ergonomically. The in-
struments are easily reachable and in correct position ready for working. An instrument

can be selected and activated simply by lifting it from its resting place. Only one instru-
ment can be operated at a time, except for the syringe, which can be used simultaneously
with any other instrument.
2.4.1 Swivel Arms
The instrument bridge is located at the end of the swivel arms. The swivel arms enable
the wide movement range of the instrument bridge, which in turn enables wide variety of
working positions. No extra weight is intended to be placed on the swivel arms.

2.4.3 Instrument Bridge Display
When the system is in idle state, time and date are shown (the 7-segment display is an
option). The number displayed in the top left corner displays the active instrument module.
The display will react to instrument selection and show appropriate views accordingly.

16 • User Guide
Spray selection and rotating speed range selection displays
The spray selection display shows water and air selections for the selected instrument.
The rotating speed range display shows the currently selected rotation speed range:
H (high speed)
range 0–100%
M (medium speed)
range 0–50%
L (low speed)
range 0–25%
The selected speed range is shown with three LEDs: in the Low speed range, only the L
indicator is lit, in the Medium speed range both Land Mare lit, and with the High speed
range all three speed lights are illuminated. Speed is selected with the remote foot control.
The colours represent the functions: blue for water, green for air, and orange for speed
range. The colour coding makes it easy to recognize the active functions.
7-segment display (an option)
The 7-segment display normally shows the time. When using an instrument with rotation
control, e.g. micro motor, the display shows the rotations per minute of that instrument.
The display shows when air and water are switched on, and the speed scale of the se-
lected instrument.
2.4.4 Silicone Covers
Silicone covers are designed to protect the instrument bridge, the suction head and the
trays. The silicone covers may be disinfected in an autoclave.
Replace the silicone cover when its colour has noticeably changed. Contact your retailer
or manufacturer for replacement covers.

2.5 Instruments and Hoses
Note!
Instruments are always manufactured by a third party. Please refer to their instructions for
their correct use and maintenance.
Warning!
To avoid risk of eye damage, do not look straight at the curing light.
Warning!
Check the locking of the instrument drill bit mechanism after replacing the drill bit.
There are five places for instruments on the instrument bridge. The arrangement of the in-
struments is set according to the customer’s order. Changing the arrangement must be
done by maintenance personnel.
Instruments that can be connected are:
Micro motor
Air motor
Scaler, electric or pneumatic
Turbine
Syringe
Curing light
Special instruments, e.g. sandblasters
There are three places for instruments and suctions on the suction head. The suction
head usually has two suction hoses with suction tips.
The instruments are ready for use when picked up from their resting place. The display of
the instrument bridge shows information specific to the selected instrument; for example
rotational speed.
The instrument is controlled with the remote Foot Control. Turning the lever adjusts the ro-
tational speed of the instrument to the desired direction or activates the scaler.
2.5.1 Micro Motors
The speed scale of rotation can be changed by pressing the button 5 on the remote Foot
Control. By default, the speed range is high (H), and can be changed to medium (M) and
to low (L) by pressing the button.

Rotation speed range control
Remote foot control buttons
The direction of rotation and the speed are controlled by the foot control lever (1 and 2).
2.5.2 Curing Light and Laser
Warning!
To avoid risk of eye damage, the patient must not look straight at the curing light or
laser beam.
Please read the operation instructions in the manufacturer’s manual.
2.5.3 Ultrasonic Scaler
Warning!
Check that the scaler gets water for cooling the tip. The scaler may be damaged if
not cooled properly.
The ultrasonic scaler power is controlled with a rotating knob on the back of the instru-
ment bridge. Power setting 1 is the smallest, 10 is the maximum. For more information,
see the instruction manual provided by the scaler manufacturer.

2.5.4 Ultrasonic Scaler Water Switch (optional)
Warning!
The hot tip of the ultrasonic scaler may damage the patient's soft tissue and teeth.
The tip may also be damaged by heat. Always use cooling water in normal use.
The instrument bridge can be equipped with a scaler water control lever. This lever cuts
off the water from the ultrasonic scaler. This option is only used in special purposes.
2.6 Suction Head
Normally, the suction head holds the suction hose(s), evacuator tips and syringe or other
instruments. The instruments are easily reachable and in correct position ready for work-
ing. An instrument can be activated simply by picking it up from its holder.
Suction head
The suction head is connected either to the chair with swivel arms or to the cuspidor with
an extendable arm depending of the model. The swivel arms enable a wide movement
range of the suction head, which in turn enables wide variety of working positions. No ex-
tra weight is intended to be placed on the swivel arms.
