6. 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.

7. 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.

8. If handpiece service is needed: Turn the unit OFF. Carefully unscrew

the outer lock ring of the handpiece assembly to the LEFT and gently

unplug the handpiece from the front panel. You can call your dealer

for assistance or SEI at (800) 648-9445 for further instruction.

9. 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®.

10. 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 a effective. It is

recommended the Power knob be set in the LOW position (Blue area)

to assure best performance.

Call your dealer or customer service at South East Instruments for

further instructions at (800) 648-9445 to help you with questions and

what to do next.

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.
