4. Operating Instructions
Operation
Once installed, the Kreativ Multi-Operatory Accessory should have no impact on the
normal use of the associated Mach 5/5+ air abrasion system, except that control of
the Mach 5/5+ systems is now provided from two operatories separated by up to 32
feet. However, there are several safety features built into the Accessory with which
the operator should become familiar.
1. Operatory Activation: To activate an operatory, remove the handpiece from
the cradle in that operatory. This will activate the footswitch in that operatory.
2. Inactive Operatory: When an operatory is activated, the second operatory
remote will be blanked, and the footswitch in that operatory will be inactivated.
No control over the Mach 5/5+ will be possible from the inactive operatory while
the handpiece in the active operatory is uncradled.
3. Operatory Release: To release control from the active operatory, the
handpiece in that operatory must be re-inserted into its handpiece holder.
4. Operatory Bypass: An operatory may be bypassed (made inoperative) with the
handpiece out of its cradle by manually depressing the switch in the handpiece
holder twice within one second. This action will inactivate the operatory as if the
handpiece were in its holder, allowing removal of the handpiece for autoclaving.
The second operatory can then operate normally.
5. Operatory Reactivation: To reactivate a bypassed operatory, depress the
handpiece switch one time, or insert and remove the handpiece from its holder.
6. Power Sequencing: To ensure proper signal communication between the Multi-
Operatory Accessory and the Mach 5/5+, always ensure power to the Multi-
Operatory Accessory is applied first, then the Mach 5/5+ is turned on.
Power to the Multi-Operatory Accessory is applied as soon as it is plugged in,
since there is no power switch provided. If difficulty is encountered during start-
up, remove power from both the Multi-Operatory Accessory and Mach 5/5+,
then restore power in the proper sequence.
