Lubrication of Handpieces
All handpieces should be lubricated regularly. We
recommend the use of Triflow Teflon Lubricant
®
before
or after use, however check with the handpiece
manufacturers recommendations. The foot pedal
should be depressed for 5-10 seconds after oiling to ensure
the lubricant will reach the turbines and
working portions of the handpiece.
The lubricant is placed in the smaller of the 2 large holes, (a).
“Air entry hole” at the base of the handpiece.
NOTE:
DON’T FORGET TO DEPRESS
THE FOOT CONTROL AFTER
OILING TO ENSURE LUBRICANT
REACHES THE TURBINES.
Maintenance instructions are printed on
the back of the dental machine
