! Never place the micromotor or any other device accessories in an autoclave unit or
ultrasonic tank. None of the components of the WaveOne
(contraangle excepted, see separate contraangle operating instructions).
! Do not immerse the device in ultrasonic cleaners.
! The plastic enclosure is not sealed, do not use any liquid or spray directly on the console,
especially on the monitor or near the electrical sockets.
! Do not crimp the cables exiting the micromotor, foot pedal and battery charger.
! Do not open the device to replace the battery for any reason, as there is the risk of a short
circuit. Opening the device will invalidate the warranty. The battery can be replaced only by
an authorized service center.
! Follow the file manufacturer's instructions for use of the endodontic files.
! The file system shown on the display must always match the file in use. This is of the
utmost importance in order to avoid misusing reciprocating files and continuous rotary files.
! Do not use files designed for continuous rotation in reciprocating motion.
! Do not use files designed for reciprocating motion in continuous rotation.
! Torque and speed values are subject to change by the file manufacturers without notice.
Therefore, the preset values in the library must be checked prior to use. Torque values
shown on the screen are accurate and reliable only with WaveOne
contraangles properly maintained and lubricated.
! The accuracy of movement provided by the motor is guaranteed only if the original
WaveOne
(MAILLEFER 6:1) contraangle is used, properly maintained and lubricated (for
!
more details see separate contraangle operating instructions).
! Do not use any other contraangle or other reduction rate than the original one.
! During calibration, the micromotor will vary its speed from the minimum value (1500 rpm on
the micromotor shaft) to the maximum value (6000 rpm on the micromotor shaft). Do not
insert any file during calibration.
! Calibrate every time the contraangle is lubricated or replaced after sterilizing, or at least
once a week (see separate contraangle operating instructions).
! Refer to the separate operating instructions of WaveOne
and MAINTENANCE chapter 6.8 of this manual before lubricating it.
! When lubricating the contraangle, carefully check that no lubricant penetrates the
micromotor.
! Do not lubricate the micromotor for any reason, as lubricant contamination of the
micromotor might damage it and may have a strong negative effect on its safe operation.
! Never introduce any foreign objects into the micromotor shaft.
! The micromotor may overheat if excessive force is applied. If the micromotor overheats too
often or overheating persists, contact your distributor.
! Before starting the micromotor, verify the correctness of the motor settings.
