Your safety, the safety of your team and, of course, the safety of your patients, are of paramount importance to us. Observe the safety notes. Intended use Mechanical drive unit with coolant supply for transmission instruments with ISO 3964 (DIN 13940) compatible coupling system, for use in dental surgery, implantology and maxillofacial surgery (CMF). Misuse may damage the medical device and hence cause risks and hazards for patients, users and third parties. Qualifications of the user Only suitably qualified medical, technical and specialist trained staff may use the medical device. We have based our developmed and design of the medical device on the »physician« target group. 9
Introduction Production according to EU Directive The medical device complies with the regulations of Directive 93/42/EEC. Responsibility of the manufacturer The manufacturer can only accept responsibility for the safety, reliability and performance of the Implantmed when compliance with the following instructions is ensured: > The medical device must be used in accordance with these Instructions for Use. > The medical device has no components that can be repaired by the user. > Modifications or repairs must only be undertaken by an authorized W&H service partner (see page 62/63). > The electrical installation at the premises must comply with the regulations laid out in IEC 60364-7-710 (“Installation of electrical equipment in rooms used for medical purposes”) or with the regulations applicable in your country. > Unauthorized opening of the control unit invalidates all claims under warranty and any other claims. In addition to unauthorized assembly, installation, modification of or repairs to the control unit, motor with cable, transmission instrument and non-compliance with our instructions, improper use will void the warranty and release us from all other claims. 10
2. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Medical electrical device is subject to particular precautions with regards to EMC and must be installed and put into operation in accordance with the EMC notes included. W&H only guarantees compliance of the device with the EMC Directives when it is used with original W&H accessories and spare parts. The use of accessories and spare parts that have not been approved by W&H may lead to increased emission of electromagnetic interference or to reduced resistance to electromagnetic interference. HF communication equipment Portable HF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to the medical device. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this medical device could result. The medical device may be interfered by other equipment, even if these other devices comply with CISPR (International special committee on radio interference) emission requirements. Use of this medical device adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this medical device and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally. The medical device is not intended for use in the vicinity of HF surgical devices. 11

5. Safety notes
Control unit / Motor
> Before using the medical device for the first time, store it at room temperature for 24 hours. > Check the control unit and the motor with cable for damage and loose parts every time before use. > Do not operate the control unit and the motor with cable if it is damaged. > Check the parameter settings every time the device is restarted. > Perform a test run prior to every treatment. > The responsibility for the use and timely shutdown of the system lies with the user. > Ensure that it is possible to complete the operation safely should the control units or instruments fail.
The medical device is not approved for operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Do not twist or kink the motor cable! Do not coil it too tightly! Moisture in the motor with cable may cause a malfunction! (Risk of short circuit)
14
Safety notes > Use only original W&H fuses > Never touch the patient and the electrical connections on the control unit simultaneously.
Control unit
The control unit is classed as “conventional equipment” (closed equipment without protection against the ingress of water).
Use the control unit in P4 and P5 programs exclusively with the surgical contra-angle handpieces approved by W&H. Use of other contra-angle handpieces may result in deviation from the indicated torque. The user alone is responsible for the above. The manufacturer does not accept any liability.
Power failure In the event of a power failure, if the control unit is switched off, or when switching between programs, the last values set are saved and re-activated on power-up. System failure A total system failure does not constitute a critical fault.
15
Safety notes
Control unit / Motor
Mains cable / Power switch >> Only use the mains cable supplied. >> Plug the mains cable only into an earthed power socket. >> Set up the control unit so the power switch and the socket are easily accessible at all times. Disconnect the control unit from the power supply in case of danger. >> Turn off the control unit at the power switch. >> Pull the power plug out of the socket.
Rotational energy Deceleration of the bur can, cause the selected torque to be temporarily exceeded, compared to the value set, as a result of the rotational energy stored in the drive system. Observe the manufacturer’s speed and torque specifications for retaining screws for superstructures. Adjusting these retaining screws with an electric motor presents a potential risk as described above.
16
Safety notes
Control unit / Motor / Foot control
Risks due to electromagnetic fields The functionality of implantable systems, such as cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) can be affected by electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields. >> Find out if patient and user have implanted systems before using the medical device and consider the application. >> Weigh the risks and benefits. >> Keep the medical device away from implanted systems. >> Do not place the motor on the patient’s body. >> Make appropriate emergency provisions and take immediate action on any signs of ill-health. >> Symptoms such as raised heartbeat, irregular pulse and dizziness can be signs of a problem with a cardiac pacemaker or ICD.
17
Safety notes Follow the directions and safety notes in the Instructions for Use of the foot control. The foot control is approved for operation in potentially explosive atmospheres (AP).
Foot control S-N2
>> Note that when using or setting low speeds, the operation or run-down of rotary instruments is more difficult to detect. >> The ESD spring contact on the bottom of the foot control must be in contact with the ground during operation. ESD is the abbreviation for “electrostatic discharge”.
18
Safety notes The medical device is designed for use with physiological saline solution.
Coolant supply
>> Always ensure correct operating conditions and that sufficient and adequate coolant is delivered. >> Always provide sufficient coolant and ensure the appropriate suction. >> Use only suitable coolants and follow the manufacturer’s medical data and instructions. >> Use the W&H irrigation tubing set or accessories approved by W&H.
Irrigation tubing set Sterile disposable irrigation tubing sets are supplied with the equipment. >> Note the expiration date and only use disposable irrigation tubing with undamaged packaging. >> Replace the disposable irrigation tubing immediately after every treatment. >> Follow your local and country-specific laws, directives, standards and guidelines for disposal.
19
Safety notes Transmission instrument >> Follow the directions and safety notes in the Instructions for Use of the transmission instrument. >> Only use transmission instruments with an ISO 3964 (DIN 13940) compatible coupling system and manufacturer approved transmission instruments. >> Follow the directions of the manufacturer of transmission instrument with reference to transmission ratio, maximum speed and maximum torque. 20
Safety notes Hygiene and maintenance prior to initial use >> Clean and disinfect the control unit, the motor with cable, the universal support and the irrigant support. >> Sterilize the motor with cable and the universal support.
