Warning
• Whenever abnormality in performance, sound level, heat level, func-
tion, etc. is sensed, stop using the airmotor immediately and consult
BA International Ltd. or an accredited BA certified Service Centre.
• Never dismantle or alter the airmotor in any way.
• Never install/remove the handpiece onto/from the airmotor while the
airmotor is in operation.
Caution
• Never operate the airmotor with the drive-air pressure exceeding 42
psi (0.29Mpa), as the excess drive-air may cause critical damage to
the internal mechanism.
• Never operate the airmotor without installing a handpiece.
Lubrication
• Use BA ULTIMATE SPRAY.
• The airmotor must be lubricated once a day or be-
fore autoclaving using the following procedures:
- Remove the handpiece from airmotor.
- Wipe off the saliva, dirt, etc. stuck to the surface
of the airmotor with an alcohol-soaked soft tissue
or cotton swab.
- Keep the airmotor in a horizontal position and
inject BA ULTIMATE SPRAY for three seconds
through the drive-air hole.
- Install the handpiece onto the airmotor after spray injection.
- Make a trial run for five seconds, moving the control ring in "F" and
"R" directions several times.
- Wipe down the excess lubricant on the surface of the airmotor with a
soft tissue.
Caution
• Never use a wire brush for disinfectants for the surface cleaning.
• Never immerse the airmotor in an ultrasonic cleaner or disinfectant
solution.
• Lack of lubrication after use or before autoclaving may cause prema-
ture failure of the airmotor.
Sterilization
An autoclave is recommended for sterilization.
• Before sterilization, clean the surface of the airmotor.
• Lubricate the airmotor, and then make a trial run.
• Remove the handpiece from the airmotor.
• Put the airmotor into a sterilization pouch when using a vacuum type
autoclave. Do not combine it with other instruments in the same
pouch.
• Autoclave the airmotor at 121 degrees C for 20 minutes or 134 de-
grees C for 15 minutes.
Warning
• Never use dry heat sterilization, cold sterilization, etc.
• Never autoclave the airmotor together with others in a sterilization
pouch.
