4.1 Warranty
**** The warranty period for our equipment is 12 months. If faults occur
within the warranty period, contact your dental depot or get in touch directly
with our service department.
Your equipment should only be operated in perfect condition. If faults occur
which could harm operators or third parties, the unit should not be used until
it has been fixed.
This warranty does not cover damage caused by improper use, external
mechanical causes, transport damage, or interference with the unit by
unauthorized persons.
Application
This polisher is used for polishing dental appliances. Its integrated suction
system guarantees optimum performance.
Only use the device for this type of application.
Before Starting
6.1 Transport
Before transporting the unit, ensure that it has been unplugged from the power
socket. Make sure that it is packed correctly in order to avoid accidental
damage.
** Be sure to check for any transport damage when unpacking the goods.
Note down any damage if found.
6.2 Installation
Open the box, remove the packing materials, and carefully lift out the device
and accessories. Check the included accessories.
** For transport ex-works, the polishing motor is supported by a stable
paperboard block. Please remove this transit support before using the unit.
After removing the cardboard box also the integrated drawer can be opened
easily.
The device has to stand horizontally on a steady and even surface.
Install the device in a place where it will not block the working area and the
functionality (take the dimensions into account). Make sure that there are
about 10 cm of free space on each side to guarantee air circulation (heat
dissipation).
Do not install the unit outdoors or in places without proper
ventilation. Before start-up, be sure the device reaches room temperature.
6.3 Storage
If the unit is to be stored for an extended period, protect it from moisture and dust. The polisher location is very important when it comes to workplace safety, even if it is only to be set up there for a short period. The room should be dry, well ventilated, and vibration-free. An even temperature and wooden supports also help. The polisher should not be stored outdoors.
Installation/ Start-up
Before starting the unit, connect up the following:
7.1 Installing and Removing the Brush Spindles
The nuts must first be removed before you install the brush spindles. Use a cloth to ensure that the shaft ends are free of grease and then remount the nuts. Use compressed air to remove any dust and dirt from the brush spindles.
Then install the spindles as marked: L = left and R = right. Fix the
spindles in place by tapping lightly and carefully on the tip of the taper
using a hammer and a plastic block.
Do not use force as this could damage the bearings and void the warranty.
Finally , insert the power plug into the socket, making sure that the
mains and the unit operate on the same voltage.
When the motor is on, the spindles must run true. If they do not, repeat the
installation process.

Use only cold cleaners to avoid damaging the paintwork or removing the
lettering.
The equipment should be cleaned at regular intervals to ensure trouble-free
operation. It requires only normal cleaning (sponge, damp cloth, mild
detergent) and no further chemical additives.
Make sure the disassembly nuts for the brush spindles remain clean
within the holes. Pay particular attention when polishing with pumice.
When undoing the nuts, remember that the left side has a right-hand
thread and the right side a left-hand thread.
10.2 Maintenance
The unit does not require any servicing. Just make sure that the device is
kept clean and a matched filter change should take place according to the
needs.
