Dental Chair Product Overview
Power and Status
The chair and system are controlled by the master toggle on the delivery
system. The power should always be turned off for service. When the A-dec
logo on the touchpad or the status light on the chair lift arm are illuminated,
the system is on and ready for use. If the status light blinks, the limit switch
has been activated.

Limit Switch and Chair Lockout
If anything becomes lodged under the chair lift arm or assistant's arm, a
limit switch stops the downward motion of the chair. Pressing the chair stop
plate or lifting up on the assistant’s arm activates the limit switches. Use the
footswitch or touchpad to raise the chair, then remove the object.
The optional lockout kit inhibits the operation of the dental chair when a
handpiece is removed from its holder and the foot control pressed. When
this happens, the chair status light blinks quickly. To resume, replace the
handpiece and use the footswitch or touchpad to move the chair.

Factory Default Routine
When a new circuit board is installed in the chair, factory default routine
needs to be run to learn the range of motion of the chair. The routine:
• Sets the base and back upper limits
• Calculates new presets based on actual range of motion of the chair
• Veries that the potentiometers work
To start the factory default routine, place the spare jumper in the factory
default position on the P17 test points of the chair circuit board (see “Circuit
Board Components” on page 10 for reference).
When running the factory default routine the chair:
1. Moves base down
2. Moves base up
3. Moves back down
4. Moves back up
5. Moves base and back to Position 0
6. Successful factory default beeps three times/failed factory default beeps one
time.
NOTE The jumper must remain in the factory default position
to complete the factory default routine. The status LEDs on
the touchpad and the chair circuit board double blink while
the factory default routine is running and after the routine is
complete.
Potentiometers
Potentiometers provide the controller with the chair base and back position
values. The controller saves the chair values with current position values for
the pre-position and auto-return functions.
Adjust the Base Up Limit Switch:
1. Remove the motor pump cover.
2. Loosen the two screws clamping the limit switch to the mounting bracket.

4. Push the limit switch against the actuator on the drive gear until the switch
opens (clicks), then tighten the clamping screws.
5. Position the chair base down until the limit switch has closed, then position
the chair full base up. Check the distance between the top of the base plate to
the at area around the threaded stud the chair adapter mounts to. If the
distance is incorrect, repeat steps 2 through 4.

potentiometer gear does not turn and the two gears mesh properly.
6. Ensure that the electrical connections to the limit switch and positioning
potentiometer are property set.
7. While observing the two gears for binding, lower the chair base.
CAUTION Do not raise to the full base up position until
after you have checked the base up limit switch for proper
adjustment. The chair may go into hydraulic lock if not
adjusted properly.

Hydraulic System
The hydraulic system consists of:
• Hydraulic uid reservoir: The uid level in the reservoir can be seen through
the sides of the reservoir and is serviced via a top ll cap.
• Hydraulic cylinders: The hydraulic cylinders control the base lift and back
functions. Springs and gravity retract the rod during base and back down
functions.
• Motor-driven hydraulic pump: The hydraulic pump and the starter capacitor
supply hydraulic uid from the reservoir, under pressure, to the chair lift
and tilt hydraulic cylinders for back up and base up functions.
• Solenoid/manifold assembly: This assembly gates hydraulic uid to and
from the two cylinders. Depending on the chair function called for, the
controller selects which solenoid-actuated manifold valves are opened or
closed. The solenoid/manifold assembly also includes four adjustable needle
valves used to restrict or divert the ow of hydraulic uid to and from the lift
and tilt cylinders. These valves provide the rate of travel adjustment for chair
base and back movement.

Self-Contained Water System
The self-contained water system provides water to the handpieces, syringes,
and cuspidor cupfill. The system includes a 2 liter water bottle that mounts to
the support center and offers a way to ensure the quality of treatment water.
WARNING Use only A-dec self-contained water bottles. Do not use
any other bottles, including glass or plastic beverage bottles. Do
not use damaged bottles. These can pose a serious safety hazard
while pressurized. A-dec plastic water bottles cannot withstand
heat sterilization. Attempting to do so will damage the bottle and
your sterilizer.
CAUTION Use caution when using the self-contained water system
with accessories that require and uninterrupted water supply (such
as scalers) as these could get damaged without a continuous water
source. Do not use saline solutions, mouth rinses, or any chemical
solutions (not specied in this guide) in your A-dec self-contained
water system. These may damage the system components and
cause your dental unit to fail.

Follow these steps when replacing the dental light bulb:
1. Turn the light off and allow it to cool.
WARNING To avoid burning your ngers, allow the bulb to cool
before removing. Never operate the dental light with the light
shield removed. The clear shield contains UV blocking additives
and is also your protection in the unlikely event that the bulb
shatters.
2. Hold the light shield and gently squeeze one side while pulling the shield
away from the dental light. Set the light shield aside.
3. Using a gauze pad or cloth to protect your ngers, carefully pull the old bulb
from its socket. Discard the bulb.
4. Holding the new bulb in its outer wrapper, carefully insert the bulb pins into
the socket. A small section of each pin is still visible when the bulb is fully
seated.
CAUTION Take care when handling the bulb. The bulb base is
fragile and can break under excessive pressure. Do not remove
the outer wrapper when handling the new bulb. Finger oils
can affect light performance and severely limit bulb life. If you
should inadvertently touch the bulb, gently clean it with cotton
dampened with isopropyl or ethyl alcohol.
