PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

While heating up, the pilot LEDs (6 and 7) are flashing, but when the selected temperature is reached, the LEDs light permanently.

* Light spot indicating that the handpiece is activated

Smartwax duo is an electronically controlled wax knife with the possibility to connect two handpieces that can be operated separately. This unit is suitable for all kinds of modeling and wax-up work and is unbeatable in combination with the Waxjet when making full dentures. The continuous wax supply via the unique feeding mechanism of the Waxjet allows the dental technician to quickly apply a big amount of wax, which helps to save time. Each handpiece can individually be set to three different temperatures. This means utmost user comfort for the dental technician. A twist-free and heat-resistant cord connects the handpieces with the control unit and ensures comfortable and ergonomic work.

Shortcuts P < or P >: _ These shortcuts are used to switch between the left and the right handpiece. _ With P < you activate the left handpiece. _ With P > you activate the right handpiece. The light spot (8) in the display shows which handpiece is activated at the moment and to which handpiece the temperatures indicated belong. Light spot at left: _ temperatures indicated in the display belong to the left handpiece _ left handpiece can be controlled Light spot at right: _ temperatures indicated in the display belong to the right handpiece _ right handpiece can be controlled

The plug-in connector between the handpiece shank and the handle with firmly fixed modeling tip offers easy and safe exchange of the instruments – without burning the fingers. At the same time, the Smartwax duo handpiece heats up the instruments very quickly thanks to the special design of the handpiece and to the good heat conductivity of the modeling tip.

IMPORTANT: If the pilot LED (6 / 7) is lit, also the other handpiece is heated and the instrument is hot! Therefore, if you only work with one handpiece, either completely switch off the other handpiece at the On/Off switch (4 / 5) or pull the plug of the handpiece cord out of the connector socket!

START-UP Please check immediately after unpacking if the unit shows transport damages. If so, please inform the supplier promptly. After unpacking, the unit

Key P: _ Program key _ To choose if the temperature is displayed in °C or in °F after switching on the first handpiece _ To select the preset temperatures P1–P3 for each handpiece (continuously) The factory-default temperatures for both handpieces are: P1 70 °C (158 °F) P2 100 °C (212 °F) P3 130 °C (266 °F) How to change temperature settings: The Smartwax duo also offers the possibility to set the programs P1-P3 to individual temperatures as needed. For this, press P to select the program (P1, P2, or P3) to be changed. Use < to lower or > to increase the temperature to the desired value. Then, press P for about 3 seconds until the display flashes. Now, this temperature is saved and can be chosen later on by selecting the according program via the program key P. How to exchange the tips: Hold the tip at the cork handle and pull it off. The modeling tips are firmly attached to the cork handle in order to prevent that the tip accidentally changes its position during modeling. Now, choose the modeling instrument desired and hold it at the cork handle. Insert it into the handpiece until you hear a clicking sound. The back side of the control unit offers several receptions to store additional modeling tips. IMPORTANT: Removing the cork handle exposes the heating element (9). Therefore, do not touch the heating element in order not to burn your fingers! Waxjet: Mount the Waxjet onto the handpiece shank in the same way as any other modeling instrument. Insert the wax wire between the feeding rollers (10) until it touches the melting pan. As soon as the wax starts melting, slowly but continuously feed forward the wax wire by turning the drive roll attached at the side (11) in the direction of the modeling tip. Do not change the feeding direction of the wax wire very often or very quickly in order to prevent bubbles in the wax.

MAINTENANCE As most of AmannGirrbach's products, Smartwax duo does not require special maintenance. Just

keep it clean. In general, the cork handle with the modeling tip is easy to turn on the handpiece shank. If not, check the cork handle and the heating element for contamination. Do not clean modelling instruments with sharp objects. Use a cloth or paper towel instead to wipe it off as long as it is hot; reheat if necessary.
