Product Usage Instructions
Installation and Operation
PROPHY ANGLE INSTALLATION FOR TITAN 3 OR TITAN T
SYSTEMS:
- Thread the angle onto the motor-to-angle adapter by hand (Star
Titan 3 Part #264073 or Titan T Part #263970). Ensure it is seated
completely. - If the angle does not seat on the adapter, remove it and spin
the motor-to-angle adapter drive gear. Repeat step one. - Use the angle disconnect wrench (Star Part #203048) to tighten
securely by fitting it into the mating indentations on the angle
neck.
PROPHY CUP INSTALLATION:
The prophy angle can use either a screw-on or a snap-on type
polishing cup.
- For snap-on type cups, use the screw-to-button adapter (Star
Part #258950). - To attach the screw-to-button adapter or polishing cup, thread
it clockwise until snug into the hollow cartridge shaft of the
prophy angle.
PROPHY CUP REMOVAL:
To remove the prophy cup, unthread the adapter or polishing cup
counterclockwise. If the screw-to-button adapter is difficult to
disengage, remove the prophy cup and use a small screwdriver to
loosen it.
Safety Instructions
Before use, verify concentric rotation by operating the
handpiece outside the oral cavity in a safe place.
Lubricating
- Lubricate with DentaLube II (Star Part #262539) once a day or
before each sterilization procedure. - Remove the prophy cup.
- Place a drop of DentaLube II down the center of the hollow
cartridge shaft, allowing a few seconds for the lubricant to drain
down. - Place a drop of DentaLube II at the base of the angle, allowing
a few seconds for the lubricant to spread.
Following these instructions and observing all warnings and
cautions provided in the user manual will ensure safe and effective
usage of the TITAN 5 STAR LUBRICATED PROPHY ANGLE.
