⹅Controls
< OTR (Optimum Torque Reverse) Mode >
If the file torque is less than the set value, the file will keep rotating in the forward direction.
When the file torque is more than the set value, the file will automatically start rotating 90° in reverse and 180° forward repeatedly. Further-
more, OTR mode can set various motor controls as described below.
Speed : 100, 300, and 500 rpm
Torque Setting : 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 Ncm
Auto Start & Stop*: The file starts when it is inserted in the canal and stops when it is taken out.
Apical Reverse or Stop*: The motor reverses or stops when the tip of the file reaches a preset position inside the canal.
< Normal Mode >
If the file torque is less than the set value, the file will keep rotating in the forward direction. When the file torque is more than the set value, the
file will automatically start rotating in reverse direction.
Furthermore, normal mode can set various motor controls as described below.
Speed : 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800, and 1000 rpm

• Do not get the charger wet or use it where it might get wet.
Usage
(1) Operating Environments
Charge the battery as soon as the battery power indicator gets down to its last bar.
If the orange charge LED goes off immediately or doesn’t light up when the motor handpiece is put into the charger, the battery is probably fully charged. To make
sure, take the motor handpiece out and put it back in again.
Make sure the contact areas for the motor handpiece and charger are free of debris, especially metal fragments. Wipe with ethanol (70 vol% to 80 vol%) to remove
any foreign debris. Do not press down too hard to wipe the charging areas; this could bend the electrical contacts.
Do not leave the charger where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
Unplug the battery charger when it is not being used.
Do not use any charger; use only the one that comes with the device.
Connect the power cord to the charger and then plug it in.
Turn the charger on. The green Power LED will light up.
* Ambient (room) temperature for charging is from +10ºC to +35ºC (+50ºF to +95ºF).
Put the motor handpiece into the charger as far as it will go.
The orange Charge LED will light up to show that charging
has begun.
* Charging time is about 120 minutes.

Atmospheric Pressure: 70 kPa to 106 kPa
* If the device has not been used for some time, make sure it works properly before using it again.

9Instructions for Use 2019-03-20
The number of bars shows how much battery power is left.
Recharge the battery when there is only one bar left.
If the battery runs almost completely out, the device will automatically turn itself off after about 10 sec-
onds. Recharge the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery power is very low and a large load is applied to the file, the motor may stop or the device
may turn itself off.
This is for safety; there may not be enough power to run the motor with sufficient stability.
Recharge the battery if the display shown to the left appears frequently.
Contra Angle Motor Handpiece
Approx. 290°
Do not force the contra angle to rotate beyond its limit.
The rotation range of the contra angle is about 290°. Set it
so that it reaches the treatment area and the display is easy
to see.
Push the contra angle onto the motor handpiece until there is an audible click.
* The contra angle must be lubricated with the LS OIL before using for the first time. p. 28 “Lubrication”
• Push the contra angle all the way onto the motor handpiece and then give it a light tug to make sure it is securely attached.
• Make sure the connection components for both the motor handpiece and the contra angle are not damaged. An improper connection could cause the motor to reverse unexpect-
edly and result in injuring the patient.

• Use caution when inserting and removing files to avoid injury to fingers.
• Inserting and removing files without holding the file release button down will damage the chuck.
• Make sure the device is turned off before inserting or removing files.
• Do not connect the file electrode if the motor handpiece is not connected to the Endostar Navigator.
• Never use deformed or damaged files.
• Make sure the file goes all the way in. Give the file a light tug to confirm it is securely held in place. If the file is not securely placed, it could come out and injure the patient.
• Do not use reciprocal files (ones made to rotate back and forth). These could perforate the apical foramen when they reverse rotation.
It’s easiest to hold the button down if you put your index finger where
the head joints the body.
Use either Nickel-titanium or stainless steel files.
1. Hold down the file release button
2. Insert the file and turn it back and forth until it lines up with
the latch mechanism.
3. Push the file all the way into the latch. Release the file release
button.
* Before using right after purchase, whenever the motor handpiece or contra angle has been replaced, or if the motor alternates between for-
ward and reverse rotation outside the canal, calibrate the device in the following way:
1. Turn the device on.
2. Make sure the battery is fully charged (three bars are displayed).
3. Put a commonly used file into the contra angle.
4. Press the Plus or Minus Switch and then select memory M6.
5. Hold down the Select Switch for 2 seconds or more.
6. Set the rotation mode to “Rev”.
7. Turn the device off. (Hold the Select Switch and the press the Main Switch.)
8. Hold the Plus and Minus Switches and the press the Main Switch to turn the device back on.
9. When “CO-Adjst” appears in the display, press the Select Switch.

• Stop using the device if you feel or notice anything unusual. The device cannot be used for every canal and should be used along with manual enlargement.
• File break more easily at fast speeds; always follow the file manufacturer’s usage recommendations. Also always check the speed settings before use.
• Do not use any type of files except nickel-titanium and stainless steel ones.
• Nickel-Titanium files are easily broken; note the following points.
• Open the canal up to the apical constriction manually before using a nickel-titanium file.
• Never use excessive force to insert the file.
• First remove all foreign matter, such as bits of cotton from the root canal.
• Never use excessive force to advance the file down the root canal.
• Do not use for extremely curved canals.
• Try not to trigger the auto torque reverse function when advancing the file down the canal.
• Do not skip file sizes; suddenly using a much larger file could break it.
• If you encounter resistance or the auto torque reverse is triggered, back the file up 3 or 4 mm and carefully advance it down the root canal again. Or replace the file with a
smaller size. Never use excessive force.
• Do not force the file down the root canal or press it against the root canal wall.
• Do not use the same file continuously in one position as this may create “steps” on the root canal wall.
• Always take file out of the contra angle after use.
• Operate the device outside the oral cavity to make sure it will operate properly before using it for treatment.
• Some canals may be impossible to enlarge; always take an X-ray to check.
• Nickel-titanium file may suddenly snap depending on the curvature and shape of the canal; stop using the file if you notice or feel anything amiss.
• Files will eventually break due to metal fatigue and should be replaced before they reach this point.
• Electric noise or a malfunction could interfere with the motor control. Do not depend entirely on the device controlling itself; always watch the display and be aware of tactile feed-
back.
• Files will jam and break if too much force is applied to them.
• Files may break even when the torque reverse is turned on, depending on the setting value. Never exert excessive force on the file.
• Files designed for use with engines break easily if too much force is applied. Also do not use these files for canals with excessive curvature.
• Always examine files for stretching and other deformities or damage before using them. Any type of deformity could result in the file breaking.
• Do not let the file release button on the contra angle press against the teeth opposite to the treatment area; this could cause the file to come out and result in an injury.
• Do not press the file release button while the motor is running. It could heat up and cause a burn, or the file could come out and cause an injury.
If a malfunction occurs, the device will
stop working.
p. 37 "Troubleshooting"
■Make sure the contra angle and motor handpiece are properly and securely connected.
■Make sure the file is securely installed; give it a light tug.

Operation with Endostar Navigator
Installing the File Electrode
• Inserting and removing files without holding the file release button down will damage the chuck.
• Do not connect the file electrode if the motor handpiece is not connected to the Endostar Navigator.
• Use only Ni-Ti or properly designed stainless steel files.
• Use caution when inserting and removing files to avoid injury to fingers.
• Make sure the device is turned off before inserting or removing files.
• Do not let the cutting part of the file touch the electrode; this will wear it out very quickly.
• Some files cannot be used with this electrode.
(E.g., Those with a file diameter of more than 1.2 mm; Those with chuck shanks that are not perfectly round; Gates-Glidden Drills; and those that have cutting sections with large
diameters such as largo burs.)
• Do not use files shanks larger than the ISO standard: Diameter 2.334 to 2.350 mm
• After use, be sure to take the file out.
• Some files cannot use the built-in electrode to make measurement; always check for conductivity before using a file.
• Make sure the file goes all the way in. Give the file a light tug to confirm it is securely held in place. If the file is not securely placed, it could come out and injure the patient.
• Never use stretched, deformed or damaged files.
• Do not use reciprocal files (ones made to rotate back and forth). These could perforate the apical foramen when they reverse rotation.
• Make sure the screw is tight enough. Otherwise, it might come out and be swallowed. Also, measurements might not be accurate.
It’s easiest to hold the button down if you put your index finger where
the head joints the body.
Use either Nickel-titanium or stainless steel files.
1. Hold down the file release button
2. Insert the file and turn it back and forth until it lines up with
the latch mechanism.
3. Push the file all the way into the latch. Release the file release
button.

Take off the cap and plug the cable’s white plug all the way
into the motor handpiece.
Plug the cable’s gray plug into the Endostar Navigator.
■Make sure file electrode is making good contact with the file.
■Touch the file with the contrary electrode and make sure the meter goes all the way to its end and there are no segments that do not
light up.
Plug: White
Plug: Gray
Do not mix up the cable plugs.
Do not put stress on the transmission cable by twisting, bending, or stretching by wrapping it around the device or Endostar Navigator.
Watch out because the motor might start up when you do this.
• Make sure the plugs go straight in.
• After insertion give plugs a light tug to make sure they are securely connected. Otherwise, data may not be transmitted accurately.
• Do not bump the plugs or drop anything on them when they are plugged in.
• Use only the special cable provided. Other cable could be electrically risky and result in damage or injury. Make sure the file goes all the way in. Give the file a light tug to make
sure it is properly installed.
• Check the meter activity before each patient and do not use the device if all the segments of the display do not light up. This suggests that the meter cannot make an accurate
reading.
* Refer to the user manual for the Endostar Navigator.
