Note: If delivery unit has oil/mist lubrication, detach and drain; motor needs no lubrication.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to bearings, before installing always check drive air pressure by using
air pressure gauge, (4/6-Line) between swivel and tubing and obtain a reading. Adjust air pressure at
delivery head until gauge reads 40-45 psi while operating motor in full forward position and with foot
control completely depressed.
2. Disconnect swivel from motor if necessary. Grasp the swivel in front of the bearing assembly
between the thumb and

fingers securing the tubing.
4. Align and insert swivel tubes into the ISO connector holes.
5. While applying slight pressure to hold

coupler, not swivel. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
Note: This joint loosens over time, resulting in air leakage and loss of power. Check for tightness
periodically.

OPERATION
The 120° rotation speed adjustment ring sets direction and speed. To run motor forward at full speed, rotate ring
towards the letter 'F' while operating the foot control. Rotate to the letter 'R' to yield full speed in reverse. Vary speed
by rotating ring in either direction towards center. Note the small depression for the current setting. After setting, the
motor runs at current speed and direction until reset. Pausing the motor is not needed to alter direction or speed
using the ring. (see FIG.6)

CLEANING & STERILIZATION
It is the responsibility of the user to use only FDA compliant sterilizing equipment and
CAUTION
accessories that are capable of meeting the manufacturers recommendations below.
Do not exceed 135°C
CAUTION
Do not use: • dry heat sterilizer
• surface sprays
with
• surgical milk
• sterilizer bags containing disinfectants
LIMITS ON REPROCESSING
Repeated processing has minimal effect on these attachments. End of life is normally
determined by wear and damage due to use.
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
The handpiece motor must be cleaned and sterilized before first use and between patient use.
CONTAINMENT AND
It is recommended that handpieces are reprocessed as soon as is reasonably practical
TRANSPORTATION:
following use.
PREPARATION FOR
Remove motor from swivel if applicable or tubing.
CLEANING:
CLEANING - AUTOMATED:
Washer-disinfectors are not recommended.
CLEANING - MANUAL:
Cleaning the Swivel &Mating Motor Part: (FIG.7)
To optimize operation of the swivel connector,
clean all internal surfaces of the motor with
a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol
until clean. Clean area around bearing/spring
assembly at rear of swivel using isopropyl
alcohol and a toothbrush.
Dry both using syringe air.
Sterilizing Handpiece Motor: After each patient,
flush air by running handpiece motor for 20
FIG. 5
seconds.
Remove attachment. Clean all internal surfaces at rear of handpiece motor with a cotton
swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol until clean. Clean all external surfaces using a small toothbrush
with isopropyl alcohol. Dry thoroughly. Place handpiece motor and swivel in sterilization bag – .
Follow the sterilization guidelines as stated by the manufacturer of your sterilizer.
LUBRICATION:
The Titan Motor is LubeFree and therefore requires
no lubrication. However at times debris from the
delivery system's drive air tubing collects in the
motor. This build-up may cause sluggish motor
operation. To ease, place 3 drops of DentaLube II,
StarDental Part #262539 into the drive air tube of
motor, and alternately operate the motor in forward
and reverse (see FIG 8).
Motor should be routinely maintained, checked for corrosion, worn parts, etc. and should be replaced
on an as needed basis.
DISINFECTION:
Use steam sterilization exclusively for complete sterility as outlined below.
MAINTENANCE:
See "Lubrication" Section.
