UPON RECEIVING YOUR AIR FORCE
Carefully inspect the unit to insure that it has not been damaged in shipping.
In the event of any damage, immediately contact the shipping company to
report it.
The Air Force comes with the following:
* Air Force handpiece
* Control Box
* Foot Pedal
* Barbed Hose Connector
* Bur Insertion Tool (BIT)
* Warranty Card
* Instruction Manual
INSTALLATION
Remove all items from the shipping box.
Place the Control Box on the bench in the area where it will be used.
Connect the handpiece to the round connector on the hose attached to the
Control Box. Secure this connection in place by tightening the locking ring.
Insert the smaller end of the plastic barbed fitting into the hose that is
attached to the foot pedal assembly. Attach the larger end of the barbed
fitting into your air compressor hose.
Air Pressure Setting: Adjust the pressure regulator located at the top of the
control box to 35 psi MAX (2.5 bar). Do Not use the Air Force above
35 psi (2.5 bar) or you will damage the turbine cartridge.
FG Bur Insertion: Use the Bur Insertion Tool (BIT) to correctly insert the
bur into the chuck. Place the bur into the chuck; place the BIT over the bur
and firmly press straight down. The bur is now properly in place.

FG Bur Removal: Firmly hold the center of the handpiece with one hand
and push the rear of the handpiece forward with your other hand. This will
activate the bur ejection mechanism and allow the bur to be easily removed.
MAINTENANCE
The Air Force is equipped with high-speed, zirconia bearings. DO NOT
LUBRICATE THESE BEARINGS.
Periodically check the air ducts at the rear of the Handpiece. Air should
always exit from them. Remove any material that may be obstructing these
ducts.

number label is removed, the warranty becomes null and void.
