1. Select the required optical fiber (200 µm or 320 µm), see chapter „List
of preset indications".
2. Make sure that the optical fiber is clean and sterile. Handpiece sleeve
and the stainless steel handpiece back-sleeve can be cleaned in the
autoclave (high-pressure sterilizer), see chapter "Cleaning,
disinfection and sterilization" [ ➙ 62].
WARNING
Use of the laser unit when the aiming beam is not functioning properly
may cause injuries to operating personnel, assistants or patients. If you
cannot see the red aiming beam after switching the laser on or during
treatment refer to chapter "Troubleshooting of simple defects" [ ➙ 66].
The optical fiber may be damaged if it is seriously bent or improperly
routed inside the handpiece. This may constitute a health hazard for
patients, dentists and dental assistants.
The optical fiber must be cleaned, disinfected and sterilized prior to
every treatment.
Remove the protection caps for treatment only.
Never touch the proximal end of the ferrule and protect them against
damage and dirt.
Never use the laser without fiber, check for correct fixation.
Never bend, fold or jam the optical fiber, as this might cause it to break.
The single-use tip must never be bent without the bending tool.
Never pull on the optical fiber.
Bear in mind the maximum bending radius of the optical fiber:
• Short-term (during treatment): 100 x radius of optical fiber
• Long-term (during storage): 600 x radius of optical fiber
Mounting the optical fiber:
1. Open handpiece by pressing both snap tabs and pull apart the
handpiece sleeve from the handpiece body.
2. Remove the protection screw from handpiece body by using the
transport and sterilization tube.
3. Remove the protective cap from the optical fiber.
4. Insert the optical fiber into the handpiece and screw it on. Tighten the
optical fiber only slightly so that it can be loosened with the transport
and sterilization tube again with ease. Make sure not to overwind the
transport and sterilization tube!
5. Remove the transport and sterilization tube from the optical fiber prior
to mounting the handpiece sleeve on the handpiece body.
6. Attach a single-use tip on the handpiece sleeve.
CAUTION
Check whether the single-use tip is damaged before attaching it.
Replace it if necessary.
Please check that the single-use tip is firmly attached prior to each use.
