normally, the frequency is extremely
fast. When scaling, ensure that the
tip vibrates normally and the water is

calculus. Keep the water flow
smoothly to avoid tip overheat. Never
use excessive force or stay for too
long when cleaning the teeth.
5 Product function and use
5.3.7 Power adjustment: Adjust the
power depending on the application.
Generally, the medium power is
enough, and the output power can
be adjusted at any time in clinical
practice according to the sensitivity
of the patient's teeth and the
hardness of the calculus.
5.3.8 Water flow adjustment: Step on
the foot pedal to activate the tip
vibration. Turn the water control knob
on the main unit or the water control
knob on the handpiece cord to form
water spray to cool the tip and the
cleaned tooth surface.
5.3.9 During clinical use, the cusp of
the tip should not be in vertical
contact with the tooth surface, and
heavy pressure should not be
applied in order to avoid any damage
to the tooth and the tip.
5.3.10 After the operation is
completed, adjust the water control
knob on the handpiece cord to the
maximum, let the device work for
about 30 seconds to rinse the
handpiece and the tip, and then
remove the handpiece and the tip for
cleaning, disinfection and
sterilization.
