Lubricate the Handpiece Connector O-Rings
Keeping the o-rings lubricated prevents them from drying out and cracking,
which may cause handpiece cooling problems.
Items needed: A high viscosity lubricant such as silicone grease.
Items to be lubricated: The four o-rings on the handpiece connector water
prongs.
Replace the Handpiece Connector O-Rings
Regularly replacing the o-rings prevents excessive wear, which may result in
handpiece cooling problems.
Items needed: O-Ring maintenance kit (Part Number 260-650-000), which
includes o-rings, an insertion tool, and instructions.
Items to be replaced: The four o-rings on the handpiece connector water prongs.
