right). Become familiar with your controls first before performing any
dental procedures on patients.
5. NEVER touch the Cavitating/Vibrating end of the insert tip to any
FLESH such as the cheek, tongue, or gums unless performing special
periodontal procedures. This will cause a friction burn to the patient.
Always keep the insert in motion. Do not rest the handle or insert on
the lips during a procedure. The insert tip should touch PRIMARILY the
calculus on the tooth surface, and NOT the enamel of the tooth
surface.
6. If the AUTOSCALER® stops functioning or is intermittent when the
handpiece cord is moved, this means a wire in the handpiece cord is
broken and must be immediately repaired or replaced. DO NOT
continue to press the foot switch as there is a possibility the internal
circuit safety fuse may blow and require replacement by a qualified
technician.
7. If a humming or high pitch sound is noted from the console during
routine use, this is a normal circuit resonance which will change as the
POWER control knob is adjusted up and down, and will not affect the
performance of your AUTOSCALER®.
8. Slimline™ and FSI™ inserts are extremely thin and FRAGILE. During
normal use the water may not mist like standard inserts (i.e. like a
TFI#10 curette tip). However, the cleaning action is just as effective. It
is recommended the Power knob be set in the LOW position (Blue
area) to assure best performance.

SCALING TECHNIQUES

Scaling techniques are at the option of the professional using this
instrument.
1. Excessive pressure is not necessary with the AUTOSCALER®. Use a
gentle, rapid motion with small overlapping strokes, being certain that
the insert is at a 15 degree angle to the tooth surface.
2. If patient Hypersensitivity is noted, you should lighten pressure on the
handpiece, Reduce the Power Level, or move from the sensitive tooth
to another, and return to the tooth later. If sensitivity persists, switch
to a hand instrument.
