Check Operation
File release button
Main Switch
■ 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.
■ Check switch operation.
Turn the Main switch ON and use the Plus or Minus switches to select a memory. Then press the main switch again
to see if the EndoSync runs smoothly.
• Operate the EndoSync 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 unit controlling itself; always watch the display and be
aware of tactile feedback.
• 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.
• Stop using the EndoSync if you feel or notice anything unusual. The EndoSync cannot be used for every canal and should be used along with manual enlarge-
ment.
• 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 re-
place 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.

Plus and Minus Switches
If a malfunction occurs, the En-
doSync will stop working. In this
case, contact Brasseler USA.
The number that appears after Error will depend on the
type of malfunction.
Refer to page 18 for instructions on checking the Endo-
Sync's operation when it is connected to the EndoSync A.I.
