These settings will also be shown to you accordingly on the display. The BaehrTec
A2000 is now ready for operation.
6. Now hold the handpiece in one hand and plug an instrument with a shaft diameter of
2.35 mm as far as possible into the opening for DIN-instruments (52). The head of the
instrument must not be larger than that shown on the front panel (max. 12 mm).
Never use instruments with an oily, worn or bent shaft. Otherwise, it cannot
be guaranteed that your instrument can be held firmly in the handpiece!
Caution – risk of injury!
Never try to insert instruments in the opening (52)
or pull them out while the handpiece motor is running. Instruments can only
be changed when the handpiece motor is switched off.
The instrument heads shown on the front panel should serve as guidance to
find out the maximum speed for your instruments. However, before you work
with an instrument, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the
permitted maximum speed. The maximum speed specified there must not be
exceeded under any circumstances. This poses a danger of injury and the
danger that your device could be damaged.
7. Now select the permitted maximum speed for the instrument you currently want to
work with. The instrument heads depicted (max. diameter) and the associated speed
should help you to quickly and safely find the permitted maximum speed for your
instruments. The permitted maximum speed must not be exceeded under any
circumstances; otherwise the instrument or the handpiece may be damaged. It can
also cause injury due to broken instrument heads. The correct permitted maximum
speed for the instrument you currently want to use can be found by comparing the
instrument diameter with instrument heads shown. Once you have found a match,
press the illustrated instrument head that you have found to be correct. The permitted
maximum speed is now set. The speed is shown in the display. Lower speeds are
generally permitted for all of the instruments.
WARNING: This is a speed recommendation. Please refer to the data sheet of the
instrument manufacturer to find out the permitted maximum speed of the instrument.
The permitted maximum speed must not be exceeded under any circumstances;
otherwise the instruments or the handpiece may be damaged. It can also cause injury
due to broken instruments.
The speed ranges 6,000 and 10,000 rpm for instruments with a diameter of 12
mm (grinding caps/DiaTWISTER) are not intended for removing calluses, but
rather for smoothing calluses (with little pressure).
To remove calluses, you should select instruments (grinding
caps/DiaTWISTER) with a diameter of 10 mm for speed ranges 15,000 or
20,000 rpm.
