LUBRICATION - For Lubricated Angles ONLY
Lubricate the Transmission Gear Daily
1. To disassemble angle: unthread knurled ring. Remove
knuckle and transmission gear from angle head.
2. Place a drop of DentaLube II in the two transmission gear
(FIG. 6) joints between the gear and gear housing and a
drop of DentaLube II in the hole in the center of the gear
housing. Rotate the gears to allow DentaLube II to work
into the bearings. Apply a light coat of DentaLube II to the
gear teeth.
3. To reassemble angle, insert transmission gear into angle
head. Engage splines of knuckle with mating splines of
head to achieve proper alignment.
4. Tighten knurled ring onto knuckle threads until snug.
5. Place angle on motor, connect to handpiece tubing; insert bur and run for 20 seconds to evenly distribute
lubricant and disperse any residual lubricant.
6. Proceed to Cleaning & Sterilization procedures before use.
