permissible speed is not exceeded.
Now press the standby button (5)
again to rotate the handpiece.
By means of the icon (18) you can
choose the direction of rotation. As
a rule, it works clockwise. Also,
most rotational instruments (steel
instruments with cross cutting) are
optimized for the clockwise rotation.
In diamond cutters or grinders, the
direction of rotation does not affect
the removal rate. Working in
reverse may be useful if the
resulting milling dust is swirled in a
clockwise direction in the field of
view.

Usage
Infilling the Spray Liquid
Switch off the device. Pull out the
spray tank on its handle. Hold the
cover of the tank in hand and
unscrew the tank. Now fill it with
distilled water and anti-germ liquid,
e.g. AquaHy (art. no. 8555).
Do not exceed the maximum
level when filling the tank.
Now turn the tank cover back on the
tank. While screwing back the cover
on the tank, make sure that is
closed correct. Otherwise there will
no pressure be built up. Put the
tank back in the housing. Switch on
the power switch in the rear of the
unit.
Attention: Never use tap
water (danger of calcification).
Also, do not use explosive or
combustible liquids, e.g.
alcohol.
Note: Never refill the tank
directly over the unit to avoid
in case you accidently spill
water, this will flow into the
unit.
The water filter (art. no. 3479)
has to be fully under water,
otherwise no water will be
sucked in.
Please only use distilled
water together with
disinfectant AquaHy (art. no.
8555). Other admixtures
could be unsuitable and
cause damages at your
device. Particularly alcohol-
based spray fluids often
attack hoses and make them
porous.
Spray
Turn on the spray function while
pushing switch (10). Now the spray
system will be filled automatically
and a strong spray stream will be
blowed out of the handpiece for the
first 7 sec. Then you can adjust the
requested spray stream while
turning knob (6).
When turning off the unit or the
spray function, the spray liquid is
pumped back completely into the
tank from the hoses. With this
process, a bubbling can be heard in
the tank.

Usage
Insert Bur
The handpiece is equipped with a
chuck, which can hold all burs with
a diameter of 2.35 mm (this is the
diameter usually used for tools in
podiatry). To open the chuck, push
the knob forward with your thumb
and leave it there.
Now insert the tool as far as
possible. Pull back the knob and the
tool will be firmly clamped.
For security reasons, only

out of standby mode, it will
run with the rotation speed
and suction power used last.
Take care to not start the mill
at an overly high rotation
speed. Select the required
rotation speed before
changing the milling tool.
Foot Switch
