HANDPIECE MAINTENANCE
Lubrication of HS & LS Handpieces
Refer to separate handpiece manual
All handpieces should be lubricated regularly. We
recommend the use of iM3 MD-30 handpiece oil before
use and after 30 minutes of running time. The foot pedal
should be depressed for 30 seconds after oiling to ensure
the lubricant will reach the turbines and working portions
of the handpiece.
Don't forget to depress the foot control after
oiling to ensure lubricant reaches the turbines
All Handpieces have a working life which can be extended
by maintaining the correct operating pressures and speeds
as well as adequate lubrication.
The working life of most Handpieces turbines is
12-24 months, however, this will depend upon the degree
of care taken and the amount of use.
Preventative maintenance will ensure a working Handpiece
at all times.
