General Handpiece Maintenance & Cleaning

Preparation
Detach handpiece from tubing.
Remove bur.
DO NOT submerge handpiece in any solution.

Clean
Wipe away any external debris using a non-alcoholic, approved disinfectant wipe.
DO NOT use any chemcial solution or submerge in water.
Using a dry tissue, remove any excess detergent leftover on the handpiece from the wipe.

Connect
Select the correct oil adaptor for the handpiece you want to lubricate.
Ensure nozzle is securely attached.
Shake the spray can wellbefore attaching to the handpiece.

Spray
Insert the oil adaptor into the handpiece.
Always keep the spray can in an upright postion.
Spray lubrication through the handpiece for 2-3 seconds into a clean tissue.
* Please note, if oil comes through the handpiece head and has a brown discolouration, continue to spray the handpiece 2 more times until it comes through clear.

Check
Repeat steps 3 & 4 until the oil comes through clear.* If it does not come through clear after 3 sprays, send off
for a service. This discolouration is due to a rusting issue.
(If the oil comes through the head of the handpiece and has a black discolouration, continue with the remainder of the sterilisation process and send the handpiece for a service before it can be used again).
Proceed to Step 6.

Sterilise
Package in accordance with applicable standards.
Place your handpiece in the autoclave ensuring you have selected the correct cycle and you have checked that your autoclave does not surpass 138°C.
Please note these are general guidelines as recommended by MC Repairs Ltd. For exact guidelines you should consult handpiece user manuals.
