• in the treatment of endodontic root
canal therapy, never operate the files
when they are outside the root canal
to avoid breaking them. To prevent
breakage, create a smooth path with
a manual endo file and plan an access
as straight as possible to limit creases
in the insert. Use a light movement.
Check the file often for signs of wear.
In the case of a broken file inside the
canal, do not allow contact between the
instrument and the broken file to avoid
pushing it deeper. Do not apply pressure
to the insert in the axial direction.
• excessive pressure applied to insert tip
may cause insert tip fracture which may
cause harm to the patient and user.
Bending and/or prying an insert tip
reduces its structural integrity and can
result in an insert tip breakage during
use.

DISASSEMBLING OF PARTS FOR CLEANING
AND STERILIZATION
Before moving on to the cleaning procedures
described
in
Chapter 6 on page 17
disconnect all the accessories and components
of the compact piezo LED.
if present, remove the insert from the
handpiece using the torque wrench;
• Breakage and wear-out of the insert tips.
High frequency oscillations and wear-
out may, in rare circumstances, lead to
the breakage of the insert tip.
• Deformed or otherwise damaged insert
tips are susceptible to breakage during
their use. these insert tips must never
be used.
• Should an insert tip fracture, during use,
check that none of its fragments remain
in the treated part and, at the same time,
apply effective suction to remove them.
• the patient must be instructed to
breathe through his nose during the
treatment, or a dental dam must be used
to prevent the patient from ingesting
fragments of broken insert tips.
WARNING: Switch the device off.
,
Always turn the device off via the switch,
and disconnect the power supply cable
from the power outlet and from the device
body, before performing the cleaning and
sterilization interventions.
