CONTROLS
CONTROL HEAD
All of the operating controls are located on the underside of the control head where they are sheltered from most
airborne contaminants.
MASTER ON/OFF: Located on the left side of the control head towards the front, this toggle switch activates the air
and water shut-off valves, which control the air and water supplies to the unit.
FLUSH: Located on the left side of the control head to the rear of the Master On/Off, this momentary toggle is used
to purge the coolant water from the handpiece tubing. Hold the handpiece tubing over a suitable container, then
activate and hold the toggle for at least 30 seconds to flush out the handpieces.
AIR BRAKE: Located in the left and right handles the control head towards the front, these momentary toggles
activate and release the pneumatic brake in the flex arm.
AIR COOLANT/CHIP AIR FLOW CONTROL: Located on the left side of the control head, this master control
valve adjusts the amount of air coolant flow to all of the handpieces. Rotate counterclockwise to increase flow,
clockwise to decrease flow.
HANDPIECE FLOW CONTROLS: Located at the front of the control head, these individual control valves adjust
the amount of water coolant supplied to its corresponding handpiece. Rotating the control valve counterclockwise
increases water coolant, rotating the control valve clockwise decreases water coolant.
HANDPIECE HOLDERS: Handpiece selection is automatic. The handpiece auto-holders contain actuator valves that
activate each handpiece when lifted from its holder, without the need for manual selection.
FOOT CONTROL
DRIVE AIR CONTROL: Delivery systems are equipped with wet-dry,
variable speed, disc type foot controls. Foot pressure on any part of the
foot control disc controls the flow of air to the active handpiece.
WATER COOLANT ON/OFF: This toggle interrupts the flow of water
coolant to the handpieces when performing a procedure that requires dry
cutting.
