2.4.3

Possible risks for customers

The suction technology and filter system used in the BaehrTec A700 significantly contribute to a minimization of potentially pathogenic dust in the ambient air and therefore, reduce the risk of communicable germs (microorganisms). Consequently, the customers’ risk based on inhalation is reduced to a minimum and the treatment of immunocompromised customers is justified.

Page 10/60

English ­ V100 – Last update: 09/2018

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

Possible risks of infection can be detected by routinely and diligently determining the medical history and in doing so, be prevented.
It is extremely important that you only treat areas of healthy skin or nails with disinfected/sterilized instruments, in the event that you previously conducted work in infected areas.

2.4.3.1

Risks due to dust and removed materials

Due to the effective suction system and the filter system used for the BaehrTec A700, the risk to customers based on inhalation of potentially pathogenic dust is reduced to a minimum.
A risk due to removed materials (such as nail residues e.g.) is regarded low based on the sufficient distance to the treatment area.

2.4.3.2

Risk due to moving or rotating parts/instruments

Intense pressure and high rotational speeds can lead to an unwelcome heat development in the area being treated and in the worst case, to damage of the tissue concerned due to heat development.
The operator must always be aware that an unintentional puncturing of the skin can occur if he or she is inattentive or the customer makes sudden movements (out of reflex). However, this risk is extremely low in the case of professional handling and constant visual checks.

ATTENTION! In any case, puncturing the skin must be avoided!

2.4.3.3

Allergy risks

The customer normally does not come in contact with the surface of the BaehrTec A700 but solely with the rotating instruments. Therefore, there can, at best, be a susceptibility to allergies regarding the components of the rotating instruments. However, since the treatment involves a very short times of contact (under 30 minutes), this is a minimal risk.

2.4.4

Possible risks for operators

2.4.4.1

Risks due to dust and removed materials

The suction technology and filter system used in the BaehrTec A700 significantly contribute to a minimization of potentially pathogenic dust in the ambient air and therefore, reduce the risk of communicable germs (microorganisms). Consequently, the operators’ risk based on inhalation is reduced to a minimum. Always wear personal protective equipment (such as face masks, which cover mouth and nose) when working.
A risk due to removed materials (such as nail residues e.g.) is regarded a hazard to the operator based on the close proximity to the treatment area. In order to minimize this risk, the operator must wear eye, mouth and nose protection during treatments.

2.4.4.2

Risk due to moving or rotating parts/instruments

Loose objects such as hair, clothing, jewellery, etc. can get caught and wound up in the rotating parts and instruments. To avoid injuries, the operator must make sure that such loose objects do not come in contact with moving parts / rotating instruments. Hair must be tied back

English ­ V100 ­ Last update: 09/2018

Page 11/60

Suction system description

We placed a great deal of emphasis on operational safety and operating speed in the development of the suction system of the BaehrTec A700.
Therefore, first and foremost we would like to give you some insight into the operation of the suction system.

You can work with the handpiece motor switched on if the suction system is disabled.
However, you cannot work with the suction enabled if the handpiece motor is not running.
As soon as the handpiece motor is running, the suction also always automatically switches on (barely noticeable). We deliberately chose to do this because this prevents the handpiece from becoming warm and also ensures that dust created by using the device is suctioned off to a minimum. If you do not turn on the suction yourself, we will describe this in the following as disabled suction. Please be aware that it is always running, even if you have not turned it on.
You can set the currently selected suction level using the button (20) at any time, so that it is “Not ready for operation” or “Ready for operation”.
“Not ready for operation” means that the suction system is not enabled, while the handpiece motor is running. This is indicated on the display by showing transparent bars in the bar graph (= suction not ready for operation).

“Ready for operation” means that the suction system is enabled, while the handpiece motor is running. This is indicated on the display by showing blue bars in the bar graph (= suction ready for operation).

If you press button (20) while the handpiece motor is running, the suction system will be immediately enabled/disabled.
If you press button (20) while the handpiece motor is not running, the suction system will be turned on or it will remain turned off as soon as you turn on the handpiece motor.

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

Here, ready for operation does not necessarily mean that the suction system is actually active because the suction system only becomes active, when the suction system is ready for operation and the handpiece motor is also in operation.
If the suction system is actually active, this will be indicated on the display by means of two additional symbols.

This symbol is displayed if the suction system is currently not in operation with the suction level you set (suction off).
This symbol is displayed if the suction system is currently not in operation with the suction level you set (suction on). (Can only appear while the handpiece motor is running).

Therefore, the following situations are possible:

Handpiece motor
Off Off On On

Suction ready for use
No Yes No Yes

Bar diagram on the display
Transparent Blue Transparent Blue

Suction
Off Off Off On

This offers you the following advantage: If you set the suction so that it is “not ready for operation”, you can always see which suction level you selected last. Now, if you would like to set the suction in the exact same way, all you need to do is simply press button (20) and the suction will be ready for operation again. As soon as you change the suction level by pressing the button (27) or (28), this suction level is set as well as “ready for use”. Therefore, you only ever have to press one button.

Suction level The suction level you selected is shown to you here as text and as a bar graph. In the bar graph, you can also see whether the suction is currently enabled or disabled. For more information, please refer to the previous section.
Filter control As soon as the pores of the dust bag are clogged (dust bag is full), this is shown to you on the display by means of the filter control symbol. In this case, you have to replace the dust bag. (For information on how to change the dust bag, please refer to the section “Changing the dust bag”).

Service control The BaehrTec A700 has a service interval display. The service interval is 905 hours and refers to the operating hours of the handpiece motor as of delivery/the last time serviced. You must send your device for servicing, when the service key lights up on the display (or within 24 months; this time interval is not displayed by the device), to avoid extensive and costly repairs.
The service interval is actually 900 hours. But given that your device already has meter readings at the time of delivery, we have included a buffer of 5 hours for you as described in the following section.

4.5.2

Adjustment mode (Options Menu)

You can change settings and call up information on your device using the “Adjustment mode”. As soon as you turn on your device, you are automatically in “Work mode”. Then, to exit work mode and reach the options menu, please press the button (18).

For your own safety, it is only possible to exit the work mode and switch to the options menu when the handpiece motor is turned off.
It will take approx. half a second to change to the next menu item, when scrolling through a menu level using the buttons (14) and (15). This ensures that you have enough time, to take a look at all selection options. Unlike the settings you make in work mode (except memory functions), the settings you make in the options menu will still be available to you even after switching off the device.

Attaching/detaching the dust bag lid to the control unit

Before you remove the dust bag lid from the control unit or attach it again, turn off the device using the main switch (3) and remove the safety plug (58) from the socket.

4.8.1

Detaching

To detach the dust bag lid from the control unit, please proceed as follows:

1. Hold the dust bag lid by the handle and lift it off the control unit. You can feel a slight
   resistance from the magnetic fasteners when lifting it.

4.8.2

Attaching

To attach the dust bag lid to the control unit, please proceed as follows:

1. Reattach the dust bag lid to the control unit. The magnets ensure that the dust bag lid
   is pulled towards the housing and therefore, closed.

Detaching Fig. 14

Page 34/60

English ­ V100 – Last update: 09/2018

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

Attaching Fig. 15
When changing the dust bag, make sure that the dust bag is not caught between the control unit and the dust bag lid. If this is the case, remove the dust bag lid once again and make sure that the dust bag is not caught anywhere when closing.
Before you close the dust bag lid and resume your work, always make sure that the turbine protection filter (rectangular) is inserted and that you have attached an undamaged dust bag correctly in the receptacle (39) for the dust bag (42), so that no contamination can penetrate the turbine and damage the device.

4.9

Changing the filter

We recommend regularly changing the dust bag (at least once per week) as well as all filters at least every four weeks, to prevent excessive germ buildup. Do not put your health at risk!
Before we describe how to change the filter, we would like to provide you with some quick information on the filtration system in the BaehrTec A700.
1. Filter: Dust bag To date, this filter has been proven and tested in many suction systems. It filters out the majority of dust particles. It is affordable, not too large and therefore, must be changed more often than a large dust bag. This has the great advantage that you do not have a buildup of organic dust and pathogens in your filter system for long periods of time. The dust bag is located in the suction chamber on the receptacle (39) for the dust bag (42).
If you require additional dust bags, you can reorder the microfibre dust bags (item no. 20701) as included in delivery.

English ­ V100 ­ Last update: 09/2018

Page 35/60

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

2. Filter: Turbine protection filter This filter prevents larger parts from entering the turbines (e.g. if you have forgotten to install a dust bag). The turbine protection filter is located in the filter chamber on the grille.
3. Filter cartridge The filter cartridge includes several different fleeces with different features:
· Sound-insulating fleece This fleece ensures that the suction noise is reduced and therefore, contributes to the pleasant volume of the A700.
· Coarse filter fleece This fleece filters coarser particles from the extracted air
· Ultra-fine filter fleece This fleece filters ultra-fine particles from the extracted air. However, this fleece is also responsible for filtering viruses and bacteria from the extracted air (maximum separation rate 99.99%).
· Carbon filter foam This fleece also ensures that odours are neutralized.
For information on how to change the fleeces of the filter cartridges, please refer to the section on “Changing the filters”.
Before you change any of the filters, please turn off the device using the main switch (3) and remove the safety plug (58) from the socket.
Only the original dust bags and original filters can be used!
Please keep in mind that the dust bag fills up quicker, when working on artificial nails (due to the greater amount of removed material). Furthermore, always wear personal protective equipment (eye, mouth and nose protection), when working on artificial nails!
Used filters cannot be cleaned and the dust bags cannot not be emptied and then reused. Always use fresh filters and a new dust bag for each filter change.
Please dispose of used filters with residual waste. It is best to discard of them in a zip bag.

4.9.1

Changing the dust bag

It is important to change the dust bag immediately, as soon as the symbol for a dust bag

change

lights up on the display. We recommend changing the dust bag weekly, to

avoid excessive germ build-up.

If the icon for a dust bag change lights up, the suction system will no longer function at full capacity. If you do not observe this indication, the device will automatically switch back to suction level 3 within 30 seconds. This prevents the device from being damaged.

To change the dust bag, please proceed as follows:

1. Turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply.

2. Remove the dust bag lid from the control unit (see the section on “Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”).

3. Remove the old dust bag from the receptacle (39).

Page 36/60

English ­ V100 – Last update: 09/2018

4. Clean the filter chamber and the dust bag lid each time you change the dust bag, to guarantee proper suction power and to prevent germ formation. Do not put your health at risk!

For cleaning, we recommend the Baehr wipes item no. 11000.
5) Carefully push the opening of the dust bag onto the receptacle (39), until the (cardboard) reinforcement of the dust bag locks into the slot on the dust bag lid.

Make sure that you do not damage the dust bag, when sliding it on and that you do not bend the seams.

6. Place the dust bag lid back on the control unit (see section on “Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”).

4.9.2

Changing the turbine protection filter

The turbine protection filter and all other filters must be replaced immediately if you have been working with your BaehrTec A700 without a dust bag (you forgot) or if a dust bag has burst.
To change the turbine protection filter, please proceed as follows:

1. Turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply.
2. Remove the dust bag lid from the control unit (see the section on “Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”).
3. Remove the old turbine protection filter from the suction chamber.
4. Clean the suction chamber, the dust bag lid, the grille and the magnetic fasteners on the control unit and the dust bag lid whenever a filter is changed.

Getting started

1. Please make sure that there is a dust bag in your BaehrTec A700. To do so, you have to detach the dust bag lid from the control unit (see section on”Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”). On the receptacle (39) on the inside of the dust bag lid, a dust bag is pushed on up to the stop. Furthermore, there is a turbine protection filter inside the suction chamber. If everything is OK, reattach the dust bag lid back to the control unit (see section on “Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”). If there is no dust bag, you have to insert a new dust bag before working with the device (see section on “Changing the dust bag”). Now, reattach the dust bag lid to the control unit (see section on “Detaching/attaching the dust bag lid from/to the control unit”).
2. Please ensure that the device has a secure footing, does not fall down and cannot be torn down and that the extracted air can escape easily. Switch the main switch (3) off.
3. Insert the included cold device connection cable (57) with the cold device coupling (56) into the cold device plug (46).
4. Plug the safety plug (58) into a proper safety outlet.
5. Now, switch on the BaehrTec A700 using the main switch (2). After a short LED check, the “Power ON” LED (4) and the LED for the largest instrument (6,000 rpm) (5) will light up.

English ­ V100 – Last update: 09/2018

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

The following items are set after each power on: o Handpiece motor direction of rotation = right o Handpiece speed = 6,000 rpm (LED illuminated) o Handpiece motor = OFF o Suction level = 4+ o Suction = ready for operation o Suction = off (because handpiece motor = off)
These settings are also shown to you accordingly on the display. The BaehrTec A700 is now ready for use.
6. Now, hold the handpiece in one hand and insert an instrument with a shaft diameter of 2.35 mm as far as possible into the opening for DIN-instruments (52). Only use instruments with a standardized shaft diameter according to DIN EN ISO 1797 amounting to 2.35 mm, cylindrical TYPE 2. Given that the BaehrTec A700 has a quickclamping mechanism, the instrument only needs to be (completely) inserted as deep as possible, to ensure a secure hold. The head of the instrument cannot be larger than the instrument head shown on the front panel (max. 12 mm).
Never use instruments with an oily, worn, scratched or bent shaft. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that your instrument can be held firmly in the handpiece! Furthermore, this can result in an imbalance occurring in the handpiece, which can damage it. The imbalance can also lead to compromising the secure hold of the instrument.
Caution risk of injury! Never attempt to insert or remove instruments into/ out of the opening (52), when the handpiece motor is running. Instruments can only be changed when the handpiece motor is switched off. The instrument heads indicated on the front foil are intended to help you identify the maximum speed for your instruments. However, before you work with an instrument, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding the permitted maximum speed. Under no circumstances can the maximum speed specified there be exceeded. This poses a risk of injury and the risk of damaging your device.
7. Now, select the permitted maximum speed for the instrument you currently want to work with. The instrument heads depicted (max. diameter) and the associated speed should help you find the permitted maximum speed for your instruments quickly and safely. Under no circumstances can the permitted maximum speed be exceeded; otherwise the instrument or the handpiece can be damaged. This can also cause injuries due to broken instrument heads. The correct permitted maximum speed for the instrument you currently want to use can be found by comparing the instrument diameter on the front film with the instrument heads shown. Once you have found a match, press the on the depicted instrument head, which you have found to be correct. The permitted maximum speed is now set. The speed is shown on the display. Lower speeds are generally permitted for all of the instruments.
WARNING: This is a speed recommendation. Please refer to the data sheet of the instrument manufacturer, to find out the permitted maximum speed of the instrument. Under no circumstances can the permitted maximum speed be exceeded; otherwise the instruments or the handpiece can be damaged. This can also cause injuries due to broken instruments.
The speed ranges 6,000 and 10,000 rpm for the instruments with 12 mm diameter (abrasive caps/DiaTWISTER) are not designed to be used to remove calluses but rather to smoothen calluses (with little pressure).
To remove calluses, select instruments (abrasive caps/DiaTWISTER) with 10 mm diameter for the speed ranges 15,000 or 20,000 rpm.

8. No, turn on the handpiece motor using the push button (13) on the control unit or the push button (55) on the handpiece. The arrow on the display is now blue. Now, the instrument turns clockwise at the speed you have selected. You can now change the motor speed of the handpiece by pressing the buttons (5) ­ (12) however, you cannot exceed the highest permissible speed for the instrument being used. The selected speed is indicated on the display. You can change the instrument speed in steps of 1,000 using the buttons (14) and (15).
Please note that by changing the rotational speed in steps of 1,000 (button (14) or button (15)), the maximal permissible instrument size also changes, as soon as you reach the next defined maximum rotational speed using the buttons (5) – (12). This is shown to you with the blue LED in the instrument area (5a) (12a). The actual speed is shown on the display (19).
E.g. The speed is set to 6,000 rpm. Now, press the button (14) until you reach the next defined rotational speed (9,000 rpm = button (6)) by pressing the buttons (5) – (12). Now, the LED for 9,000 rpm lights up automatically (6a)). This reminds you that a different maximum instrument diameter must be used. The instrument heads indicated on the front foil are intended to help you identify the maximum speed for your instruments. However, before you work with an instrument, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding the permitted maximum speed. Under no circumstances can the maximum speed specified there be exceeded. This poses a risk of injury and the risk of damaging your device.
The maximum speed for the instrument currently in use cannot be exceeded.
Make sure that you do not block the handpiece motor by overloading it. This can be the case for example if your instrument gets caught in something (such as a towel) while working. If this happens, switch off your device using the main switch as soon as possible or disconnect it from the mains as soon as possible. As soon as the device is disconnected from the mains, remove the blockage and check your device for damage (e.g. instrument or handpiece damaged). Only reconnect the device to the mains and turn it on again if you do not find any damage. Now, check your device at a handpiece rotational speed of 6,000 rpm with a small instrument (max. Ø 7 mm) and carefully test the entire rotational speed range step by step. If everything is OK, you can continue your work carefully.
9. You can change the suction level using the push buttons (27) or (28) or set minimal suction with push button (21) or maximum suction with push button (22). The selected suction level is shown on the display.
As soon as the handpiece motor is running, the suction also always automatically switches on (barely noticeable). We deliberately chose to do this because this prevents the handpiece from becoming warm and also ensures that dust created by using the device is suctioned off to a minimum. 10. You can switch the suction function to “Not ready for operation” and in doing so, to off, using push button (20).
11. You can turn the handpiece motor on/off using push button (13) on the control unit or push button (55) on the handpiece.

Please note that the suction is automatically switched off as soon as you turn off the handpiece motor.

12. You can switch the direction of the handpiece motor to counterclockwise or clockwise (for righties or lefties) using push button (16). This is shown on the display, when the arrow indicating the direction of rotation points in the other direction.

Page 42/60

English ­ V100 – Last update: 09/2018

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700

You can change the direction of rotation while the handpiece motor is running.

13. You can make changes o before the handpiece motor is running
–> when switching on the handpiece motor, the device operates with the preset values o while the handpiece motor is running
–> the changed settings will take effect immediately
14. If the display shows the symbol for a dust bag change, it is time to change the dust bag. In this case, the suction system will no longer work at full capacity. If you do not observe this indication, the suction will switch back to level 3 automatically within 30 seconds. This prevents the device from being damaged. (For information on how to change the dust bag, please refer to the section on “Changing the dust bag”).
We are confident that you will quickly become accustomed to working with your BaehrTec A700 safely and properly and wish you all the best doing so!

5.2

Care (cleaning and disinfection)

To prevent transmitting pathogens, the requirements of the nationally responsible authorities for hygiene and disinfection must be observed.
For cleaning and disinfection, we recommend the Baehr wipes item no.11000 or a nonalcohol-based surface disinfectant, which potentially covers the existing bacterial spectrum. The disinfectants and cleaning agents must be used according to the manufacturers’ instructions.

Do not use any acids, strong alkalis, solvents or corrosive agents for cleaning purposes.
When using disinfectants, a slight lightening or dulling of surfaces can occur. However, this will have no effect on the function or the safety of the device.
Never immerse the device in water or any other liquids; this poses a risk of electric shock. Under no circumstances can disinfection spray be used because that would allow moisture to penetrate the device, which could lead to bearing damage or electronic damage or even pose a risk of an electric shock!

Clean the outside of the handpiece and the panels of the device after each treatment by wiping them down with disinfectant (observe application times, do not dry off and allow to evaporate before the next treatment). To do so, we recommend the BAEHR wipes for quick disinfection (item 11000, 11001, 11044). Clean and disinfect the handpiece every work day as follows: Turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply. Unscrew the outer handpiece sleeve ((53) Fig. 11) from the handpiece cap ((54) Abb.11). Clean the handpiece cap with a small, soft brush and wipe it down with the BAEHR wipes for quick disinfection (Item 11000, 11001, 11044). The handpiece cape with the electronic parts of the handpiece cannot, under any circumstances, be placed in any liquid. Wipe down the handpiece sleeve on the outside with disinfectant and on the inside with a cleaning and disinfection cloth, which does not have fixing properties (we recommend the BAEHR wipes for quick disinfection, 5 min. (Item 11000, 11001, 11044).
You can find more manufacturer information (on cleaning, disinfection and sterilization of the rotating instruments) on our website www.fusspflege.com in the download section of the customer portal.
We recommend regularly changing the dust bag (at least once a week) and all filters at least every four weeks (even if the filter display does not indicate a filter change), to prevent excessive germ build-up. Do not put your health at risk.

5.2.2

Easy-Clean clamping mechanism

We are delighted to inform you that your handpiece includes our newly developed, innovative and patented Easy-Clean clamping mechanism (hereinafter referred to as “Easy-Clean”).
In a conventional clamping mechanism, the dirt, which accumulates when working, can cause an instrument you are operating with your handpiece to stop, even though the motor is running. This can also be accelerated by creams, oils, greases or the like. The consequence: The clamping mechanism is no longer functional or only functional to a limited extent and in the passed, would have to have been sent to the factory for maintenance and cleaning. To save you from having to do this in future, we developed Easy-Clean. You can easily clean Easy-Clean yourself without any great expense or effort.
The Easy-Clean grips need to be cleaned at least once a month! Recommendation: In the case of an average of 8 to 10 treatments per day, you should clean the grips every 14 days with the tool supplied. If you prefer cleaning the grips every day due to reasons of hygiene ­ as well as the device itself ­ please only use the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 (brush) with alcohol.

It is essential that you read this section with the utmost care! It contains important information on protecting yourself, others and the device from damage! It can only be used by trained professionals.
Never perform cleaning work or change a filter on a device that is still connected to the mains. First, turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply. Caution risk of injury! Never try to perform cleaning work on the handpiece while the handpiece motor is running. The handpiece motor must be switched off.

Operating Manual BaehrTec A700
Only the appropriate tool should be used to clean Easy-Clean. Other types and fields of application are carried out at your own risk, and can pose risks. No type of misuse is permitted. Improper use can lead to damage to persons or objects. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper use, unqualified personnel or incorrect operation. All warranty claims are void following improper use. The clamping mechanism cleaner can only be used for Easy-Clean (developed for self cleaning). Under no circumstances can the clamping mechanism cleaner be used on conventional clamping mechanisms, which are not intended for self cleaning; this would cause immediate damage to the clamping mechanism. Clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 1 after each use and make sure that it is always in a perfect hygienic condition before use. We recommend a brush (item no. 34914), to clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 1. For reasons of hygiene, please clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 after use under running water and then, place it in an appropriate surface disinfectant (e.g. BAEHR quick surface disinfectant, 5 min. item no. 11002) and then, rinse off the disinfectant with water and then, alcohol. The images are for illustrative purposes only. Subject to technical and optical changes.

Universal stainless steel Item no.: 40287 1x
Clamping mechanism cleaner 2 (Cleaning brush for Easy-Clean)
Item no.: 40269
To clean Easy-Clean, please proceed as follows:
1. Turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply. Never clean the device while the handpiece motor is still running! Risk of injury! Moreover, the clamping mechanism will suffer damage! Do not put your health at risk!
2. Put on disposable gloves and pick up the handpiece. 3. Now, press on the top of the handpiece with your thumb. By holding the tip with the
disposable glove, you prevent the tip from turning while your cleaning (see Fig. 34). 4. Insert the clamping mechanism cleaner 1 without pressure as far as possible into the
opening of your handpiece and turn the clamping mechanism cleaner 1, pressing slightly to the left and right (see Fig. 35). 5. Now, pull out the clamping mechanism cleaner 1 from the opening. Next, remove the dirt from the grooves on the clamping mechanism cleaner 1 using a small brush. Repeat the cleaning process until you cannot remove any more dirt. 6. After use, clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 1 with Baehr quick surface disinfectant (item no. 11002). 7. Now, remove any remaining contamination with the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 by inserting it as deep as possible into the opening on your handpiece and then, turning to the left and right (see Fig. 36). 8. Next, pull the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 back out of the opening. 9. Only clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 with water first and then, with Baehr quick surface disinfectant (item no. 11002) and then, with Baehr Alcohol (item no. 11032), to degrease the tool.

You can also clean Easy-Clean in the event that cream, fat, oil or the like gets into the clamping mechanism.
To do so, proceed as follows.
1. Turn off the device using the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply. Never clean the device while the handpiece motor is still running! Risk of injury! Moreover, the clamping mechanism will suffer damage! Do not put your health at risk!
2. Moisten the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 with alcohol (item no. 11032) (never use lubricating disinfectant or other greasy substances because Easy- Clean can otherwise cease to function properly).
3. Insert the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 into the opening of your handpiece and turn it to the left and right.
4. Remove the clamping mechanism cleaner 2. 5. Now, leave the handpiece to air for at least 3 minutes.
Your handpiece is now once again ready for operation.
If your handpiece still does not function correctly in spite of these cleaning measures or if you have any questions about the cleaning process, please contact us.
