Once the bags are open, one paste may flow out before the other paste
producing an uneven mixing ratio. For this reason, always make sure to
check whether both pastes flow into the mixer and do not apply the
paste until the mixture shows a homogeneous color.

5.5 Loading the Impression Tray and
Penta Elastomer Syringe
•
Press the "start" button.
Please note: A few seconds pass before the paste becomes
visible in the mixing tip.
The Pentamix 2 automatic mixing unit only functions as long as the
"start" button is pressed. As soon as the button is released, the paste
does not flow any more.
Do not arrest the "start" button to avoid continuous operation which
might result in a dangerous situation. For safety reasons, use the
Pentamix 2 only with closed access door.

Tilt the tray to load it. Fill the tray bottom continually from one end
to the other, keeping the opening of the mixing tip immersed in
the impression material (Pict.
impres sion material with a spatula.

A mixing tip may only be used as long as the mixing shaft inside the
mixer rotates smoothly. If the mixing procedure is interrupted for more
than 30 sec, the material inside the mixing tip begins to harden and a
new mixing tip must be assembled (refer to 5.3 "Attaching the Mixing
Tip"). If the mixer is operated while containing hardened material, the
catalyst nipple of the sealing cap can be damaged or may break away.

Put the Penta Elastomer Syringe, manufactured by 3M ESPE, (after
removing the plunger) with its rear opening directly onto the mixing tip
and press the "start" button (Pict.

5.6 Re-starting a Partly Empty Cartridge
! !
After prolonged storing (especially silicones) clean
the openings of the cartridge caps from possible plugs
using an instrument.
If necessary, start the unit without the mixer in order to control the flow of
the paste. Attach a new mixing tip and start the mixing process.
The filling level indicator allows control of the filling quantity.The unit turns
off automatically once it is completely empty:
5.7 Exchanging a Cartridge
If a cartridge is nearly empty, it is recommended to have a second
cartridge at hand, ready for use, to be able to exchange quickly. This
cartridge must be prepared as under 5.4 "Starting a New Cartridge".
Trained staff can also exchange the cartridges while filling the tray. To do
so and to save time, the full mixing tip of the emptied cartridge is attached
to the prepared new cartridge. Don't forget to push down the plungers!
Utilisation capacity time of the mixing tip: refer to 5.5
