4.4 Description of suction system
When developi ng the sucti on system of the BaehrT ec A120 0/A200 0 we hav e place d a great
deal of emphasis on oper at in g safety and operating spee d.
We would ther efore like first and foremost to gi ve you an insig ht into the oper ation of the
suction system.
It is possible to work with th e hand piece m otor s witch ed on if t he suc tion i s
disabled.
However, it is not possible to work with the suction enabled, if the handpiece
motor is not running.
As soon as the handpiece motor is in operation, the suction will also always
be turned on automatically (barely noticeable).
We have deliberately chosen to do this because this prevents the handpiece
from becoming warm and also ensures that dust created when working is
suctioned off to a minimum.
If you do not turn on the suction you r self, we shall describ e this in the
following as dea ctivated suct ion. Please be aw are that this is always
running, even if you have not turned it on.
You can set the currently selected suc ti on level usi ng th e button (20) a t any time so th at it is
"Not ready for operation" or "Ready for operation".
"Not ready for operation" means that the suction is not activated while the handpiece motor
is running. This will be indicated on the displ ay if t he ba rs in the b ar gr aph a re pres ente d as
transparent (= sucti o n not re ad y for ope rat io n) .
"Ready for operation" means that the suction is activated while the handp iece motor is
running. Thi s will be indic ated on the di splay if the ba rs in the ba r graph are fill ed blue (=
suction ready for operation).
If you press button (20) while the handpiece motor is running, the suct i on w ill im m edi atel y be
activated/deactivated.
If you press b utton (20) while the hand piece m otor is not runni ng, the s uction will be turned
on or it will remain turned off once you turn on the handpiece motor.
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
English – V100 - Date 09/2017 Page 29/64
Here, ready for operation does not necessarily mean that the suction is actually active, as the
suction only becomes active when the suction is ready for operation and the handpiece motor
is also in operation.
If the suction is actually active, this will be indicated on the display by two additional symbols.
This symbol is dis pla yed if the sucti on i s not c urrent ly in operati on wi th the
suction level you have set (suction off).
This symbol is dis pla yed if the sucti on i s not c urrent ly in operati on wi th the
suction level you have set (suction on).
(Can only appear while the handpiece motor is running).
Therefore, the following situations are possible:
Handpiece motor
Suction
ready for use
Bar diagram
on the displa y
Suction
Off No Transparent Off

This offers you the following advantage:
If you set the suction so that it is "not ready for operation", you can see which
suction level you last selected at all times. If you then want to set the suction
in the same way, all you need to do is simply press butt on (20) and t he
suction will be ready fo r ope rati on ag ain.
As soon as you press one of the s uction level b uttons (21) – (26), (27) or
(28), this suc tion lev el will immedia tely be set and will als o imm ediatel y be
"ready for use". This mea ns yo u o nl y ever have to pre ss one button.

4.8 Disconnecting/connecting the dust bag lid to the controller
Before you remove the dust bag lid from the controller or attach it again, turn
off the devic e at th e main swi tch (3) a nd remove the safet y plug (58) from
the socket.
4.8.1 Disconnecting
In order to disconnect the dust bag lid from the controller, please follow th es e s teps :
1) Hold the dust b ag lid b y the han dle an d lift of f rom the c ontroll er. You will fee l a slig ht
resistance from the magnetic fasteners when lifting it.
4.8.2 Disconnecting
To attach the dust bag lid to the co ntr ol l er pl ea se pr oce ed as foll o ws:
1) First, attach t he dust bag lid with th e mounti ng bolt s for the magnet holde r to the si de
on which the handpie ce outl et is not loc ate d.
2) Then attach t he dust b ag lid with the mounting bolts fo r the mag net hol der to th e side
on which the handpi ece ou tlet is locate d. The m agnets ensure that t he dust bag li d is
pulled towards the housing and thus closed.
Disconnecting Fig. 14
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
English – V100 - Date 09/2017 Page 35/64
Connecting Fig. 15
When changing t he dust b ag, make sure t hat the dus t bag does not pi nch
between the controller and the dust bag lid. If this should be the case,
remove the dust bag li d onc e agai n an d mak e sure th at t he dust bag is not
pinched when closing.
Before you cl ose th e d us t ba g li d an d r esume your work, always make sure
that the turbi ne protection filter (rectan gular) is insert ed and that you have
attached an undamaged dust bag correctly in the receptacle (39) for the du st
bag (42), so that no impurities can enter the turbine and damage the device.
4.9 Changing the filter
We recommend cha ngi ng the dust bag, as well as all fil te rs reg ul a rl y an d at
least every fo ur we eks, in order t o pre vent exc essive germ b uild-up. T hink
of your health!
Before we desc ribe how to chan ge the filter, we would like to provi de you with som e quick
information on the filtration system in the BaehrTec A1200/A2000.
1. Filter: Dust bag
This filter has been prove n in many su ction systems t o this da y. It filters o ut the majo rity of
dust particles . It i s aff o rd abl e, not too l arg e, an d m us t t he ref ore be cha nged more oft en than
a large dust bag. This has the great advantage that you do not have a build-up of organic
dust and pa thogens in your filter system for too long. The du st bag is located in th e
suction chamber on the receptacle (39) for the dust bag (42).
If you need additional dust bags, you can order microfibre dust bags (Art No. 21185) like those
contained in the delivery.
2. Filter: Turbine protection filter
This filter prevents larger parts entering the turbines (e.g. if you have forgotten to install a dust
bag). The turbine protection filter is located in the filter chamber on the grille.
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
Page 36/64 English – V100 - Date 09/2017
3. Filter cartridge
The filter cartridge includes several different fleeces with different features:
• Sound-insulating fleece
This fleece ensures that the suction noise is reduced and thus contributes to the
comfortable volume of the A1200/A2000.
• Coarse filter fleece
This fleece filters coarser particles from the extracted air
• Carbon filter fleece
This fleece ensures that most odours are neutralised.
• Ultra-fine filter fleece
This fleece filters ultra-fine particles from the extracted air.
However, this fleece is also responsible for filtering viruses and bacteria from the
extracted air (maximum separation rate 99.99 %).
• Carbon filter foam
This fleece also ensures the neutralisation of odours.
For information on how to change the fleeces of the filter cartridge, please refer to the section
"Changing the filter cartridge".
Before you chang e any of the filte rs, please turn off t he device at the m ain
switch (3) and remov e the safety plug (58) from the socket.
Used filters must not be cleaned and the dust bags must not be emptied and
then re-used. Always use fresh filters and a new dust bag for each filter
change.
Please put used filters in the residual waste. It is preferable to discard this in
a press-fastening bag.
4.9.1 Changing the dust bag
In principle, the dust bag must be changed immediately once the symbol for a dust bag change
lights up on the display.
If the icon for a dust bag change lights up, the suction system will no longer be fully powerful.
If you do not heed this indication, the device will switch automatically within 30 seconds back
to suction level 3. This prevents the device from being damaged.
To change the dust bag, please proceed as follows:
1) Turn off the device at the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply.
2) D iscon nect th e dust ba g lid f rom th e cont roller (see s ection "Disconnecting/connecting
the dust bag lid to the controller").
3) Remove the old dust bag from the receptacle (39).
4) Clean the filter chamber and the dust bag lid each time you change the dust bag in order
to guarantee proper suction power and to prevent germ formation. Think of your health!
For cleaning, we recom mend the Baehr cloths Art. No. 11000.
5) Push the dust bag carefully with the opening on the receptacle (39), un til t he (car dboar d)
reinforcement of the dust bag locks into the slot on the dust bag lid.
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
English – V100 - Date 09/2017 Page 37/64
Make sure that you do not d amage th e dust bag when sli ding it on and t hat
you do not bend the seams.
6) Place the dust bag lid back on the controller (see section "Disconnecting/connecting the
dust bag lid to the controller").
4.9.2 Changing the turbine protection filter
The turbine protection filter and all other filters must be replaced immediately
if you have been work ing with your BaehrT ec A1200/A2000 w ithout a dust
bag (if you forgot) or if a dust bag has burst.
To change the turbine protection filter, please proceed as follows:
1) Turn off the device at the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply.
2) D iscon nect th e dust ba g lid f rom th e cont roller (see s ection "Disconnecting/connecting
the dust bag lid to the controller").
3) Remove the old turbine protection filter from the suction chamber.
4) C lean the suc tion cham ber, th e dust bag li d, the g rille and the magn etic fastene rs on
the controller and the dust bag lid during each filter change.
For cleaning, we recommend the Baehr cloths Art. No. 11000.
5) Place a new turbine protec tio n filt er on t he grille.
Fig. 16
6) Place the dust bag lid back on the controller (see section "Disconnecting/connecting the
dust bag lid to the controller").

4.9.3 Changing the filter cartridge
You must chan ge the tu rbine protecti on filte r and all other fi lters if you have i nstall ed a ne w
dust bag and the symbol for a dust bag change still lights up. You should also change
the turbine protection filter and t he oth er filter s if yo u believ e that t he symbol for a dust b ag
change has lit up too early after successfully changing the dust bag. In principle, we
recommend changing the filter cartridge regularly, and at least every four weeks.
To change the filter cartridge, please proceed as follows:
1) Turn off the device at the main switch and disconnect it from the power supply.
2) The filter cartridge can be released from the device by turning both knurled screws (44)
anti-clockwise until the filter cartridge easily comes away from the back of the device.
Fig. 17
3) Remove the filter cartridge (43) and clean the exhaust duct on the controller using Baehr

4.10 Getting started
1. Make sure that there is a dust bag in your BaehrTec A1200/A2000. To do this, you must
disconnect the d ust bag li d from th e controll er (see secti on "Disconnecting/connecting
the dust bag lid to the controller"). On the receptacle (39) on the inside of th e dust b ag
lid, a dust bag is pushed on as far as the stop. There further is a turbine protection filter
inside the suction chamber. If everything is okay, connect the dust bag lid back onto the
controller (see s ection "Disco nnectin g/con necting the d ust bag lid t o the co ntroller") . If
the dust bag is missing, you must insert a new dust bag before working with the device
(see section "Changin g the dust bag"). No w connect the dust bag lid back onto the
controller (see section "Disconnecting/connecting the dust bag lid to the controller").
2. Please ens ure t hat the devic e has a se cure f ooti ng, does not fall dow n an d ca nnot be
torn down, and that the extracted air can escape easily. Switch the main switch (3) off.
3. Connect the supplied non-heating connection cable (57) with the non-heating connector
(56) to the plug (46).
4. Plug the safety plug to (58) in a proper safety outlet.
5. Now switch the BaehrTec A1200/A2000 on using the main switch (3). After a short LED
check, the " Power ON" LED (4) an d the LED f or the largest instrument (6, 00 0 rpm ) (5)
will light up.
The following thing s are set aft er eac h po we r on:
o Handpiece motor direction of rotation = right
o Handpiece speed = 6,000 rpm (LED illuminated)
o Handpiece motor = OFF
o Suction level = 4+
o Suction = ready for operation
o Suction = off (as handpiece mot or = off )
These settings will also be shown to you accordingly on the display. The BaehrTec
A1200/A2000 is no w read y fo r use.
6. Now h old the hand piece in o ne hand and plug an i nstrument with a sha ft diameter of
2.35 mm as far as pos sibl e into t he op enin g for D IN-instruments (52). T he he ad of the
instrument must not be larger than that shown on the front panel (max. 12 mm).
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
English – V100 - Date 09/2017 Page 41/64
Never use ins truments with an oily, wo rn or bent shaft. Otherwis e, it cannot
be guaranteed that your instrument can be held firmly in the handpiece!
Caution – risk of injury! Never attempt to insert or remove instruments into/
out of the opening (52) when the handpiece motor is running. Instruments can
only be changed when the handpiece motor is switched off.
The instrument heads i ndicated on the front foil are i ntended to help you
identify the maximum speed for your instruments. However, before you work
with an instrum ent, be sure to fol low the manufac turer’s instructi ons on the
permitted maximum speed. The maximum speed specified there must not be
exceeded u nder any circ umstances. This poses a danger of injury and the
danger that your devic e will be dam a ge d.
7. Now select the permitted maximum speed for the instrument you currently want to work
with. The instrument heads depicted (max. diameter) and the associated speed should
help you to quic k ly and safel y fi nd th e perm i tt ed m a xim um speed for your instrument s.
The permitte d maximum sp ee d must not be exceeded u nder a n y circumstances;
otherwise the instrum ent or the handpi ece may be damaged. It can also cau se injur y
due to broken instrument heads. The correct permitted maximum speed for the
instrument you currently want to use can be found by comparing the instrument diameter
on the front film with the instrument heads shown. Once you have found a match, press
the illustrated instrument head that you have found to be correct. The permitted
maximum speed is now set. The speed is sho wn in the display. Lowe r speeds are
generally permitted for all of the instruments.
WARNING: This is a speed recommendation. Please refer to the data sheet of the
instrume nt man ufactur er to fi nd out the perm itted maxim um spee d of the i nstrum ent.
The permitted maximum speed must not be exceeded under any circumstances;
otherwise the instrumen ts or t he h a nd pi ece m a y b e dam a ge d. It ca n a ls o c au se in jury
due to broken instruments.
The speed ranges 6,000 and 10,000 rpm for the instruments with 12 mm
diameter (abrasive caps/DiaTWISTER) are not designed to be used to remove
calluses, but rathe r to sm o ot hen horny skin (with little pressure).
To remove calluses select instruments (abrasive caps/DiaTWISTER) with 10
mm diameter for the speed ranges 15,000 or 20,000 rpm.
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
Page 42/64 English – V100 - Date 09/2017
8. You ca n now tur n on th e hand piec e moto r using th e pus h butt on (13) on the cont roll er
or the push butt on (55) on the handpiece. T he arrow in the display will now be filled
blue. The instrum ent will no w turn clock wise at the speed yo u have selec ted. You c an
now change the motor speed of the handpiece by pressing the buttons (5) – (12),
however, you must not exc eed t he hig hest perm issibl e s peed for the in strum ent being
used. The selecte d speed is indic ated on the di splay. You can c hange the in strument
speed in steps of 1,0 00 w ith t h e butto n s (14) and (15).
Please note tha t b y chan gi ng t he r ot at i on speed in steps of 1 ,00 0 (b ut t on (14)
or button (15)), als o the maximal permissible instrument si ze when you have
reached to defi ned m aximum rotati on s peed usi ng t he butt ons (5) - (12). This
is indicated by the blue LE D in the instrum ent area (5a) - (12a). The actual
speed is shown on the displ a y (19).
E.g.
The speed is set to 6,000 rpm . N ow pr ess the button (14) until you reach the
next defined ro tation speed (10,000 rp m = button (6)) b y pressin g the butt ons
(5) - (12). Now the LED for 10,000 rpm lights up automatically (6a)). This
reminds you that a different maximum instrument diameter must be used.
The instrument heads indicated on the front foil are intended to help you identify
the maximum s peed for you r instrume nts. However, before yo u work with a n
instrument, b e sure t o follo w the m anufactu rer’s i nstructi ons on t he perm itted
maximum spee d. Th e ma ximum sp eed speci fied there must not be exc eeded
under any circ umstances. Thi s poses a dang er of injury an d the danger th at
your device will be damaged.
The maximum speed for the instrument currently in use must not be exceeded.
Make sure that you do not bloc k the handpiece mot or by overloading it. This
may be the c ase, for example, if your instrument gets caught in som ething
(such as a towel) while working. If this happens, switch off your device with the
main switch as s oon as possibl e or discon nect it from th e mains as soo n as
possible. As so on as the device is di sconnect ed from the mains, r emove th e
blockage and check your device f or damage (e.g. instrument or ha ndpiece
damaged). Onl y reconnect t he devic e to the m ains and tur n it on agai n if you
do not find any damage. Now check your device at a handpiece rotation speed
of 6,000 rpm with a small instrument (max. Ø 7 mm) and carefully test the entire
rotation spe ed range in steps. If you do not not ice anything her e, you may
continue your work care fully.
9. With the push buttons (21) – (26) and (27) or (28) you can change the spray level. The
selected suction level is shown on the display.
As soon as the handpiece motor is in operation, the suction will also always
be turned on automatically (barely noticeable).
We have deliberately chosen to do this because this prevents the handpiece
from becoming warm and also ensures that dust created when working is
suctioned off to a minimum.
10. Switch the suction function to "Not ready for operation", and therefore off, using the push
button (20).
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000
English – V100 - Date 09/2017 Page 43/64
11. You can turn the handpiece motor on/off using the push button (13) on the controller or
the push button (55) on the handpiece.
Please note that th e suction is automaticall y switched off as soon as you
turn off the handpiece motor.
12. You can switch the direction of the handpiece motor to anti-clockwise or clockwise using
the push button (16). This is shown on the display when the arrow indicating the direction
of rotation points in the other direction.
You can change the direction of rotation while the handpiece motor is
running.
13. You can make changes
o before the handpiece motor is running
--> the device runs using the factory settings when the handpiece motor is switched on
o while the handpiece motor is running
--> the changed setti ngs will take effect immediately
14. If the displa y sho w s th e symbol for a dust ba g change, it is tim e to c ha ng e the dust bag.
In this case the suction system will no longer be fully powerful. If you do not heed this
indication, the suction will switch automatically within 30 seconds back to level 3. This
prevents the d evice from being dama ged. (For i nformatio n on how to ch ange the dust bag,
please refer to the section "Changing the dust bag").
We are confident that you will quick ly become accust omed to working with your Baeh rTec
A1200/A2000 safely and properly and wish you lots of fun and success!
4.11 Accessories
The following accessories are optionally available for your BaehrTec A2000:
4.11.1 Foot pedal (BaehrTec A2000 only)
You can purc hase a fo ot pedal (Art No .23000001) for the B aehrTec A 2000. Using this f oot
pedal, you can adjust the speed continuously from 6,000 rpm to 40,000 rpm.
The device functions the same way with the foot pedal as it does without. There are only two
differences:
o The foot pedal symbol appea rs on the di splay
o As long as the foot pedal is connected the speed of the handpiece motor can only
be controlled using the foot pedal (yo u can see the currentl y used instr ument
speed on the dis play when the foot p edal is activated). Her e, you can use the
buttons (5) – (12) to set the maximum speed that you wish to reach when fully
depressing th e foot pedal . Th e butt ons (14) and (15) can also be used whe n the
foot pedal is activated. You can also adjust the maximum speed. Please note that
the selected maximum speed is only visible when the foot pedal is fully engaged.
Operating Manual BaehrTec A1200 / A2000

5.5.4 Easy-Clean clamping mechanism
We are delighted to inform you that your handpiece contains our newly developed, innovative
and patented Easy-Clean clamping mechanism (hereinafter referred to as "Easy-Clean").
In a conventional clamping mechanism, the dirt that arises when working can cause an
instrument you a re o per at in g wi th yo u r han dpiece to sto p, eve n though the m o tor is running .
This can be accel e rat ed e ve n f ur th er b y cream s , oil s, fa t s o r the li k e. T he consequence: T h e
clamping mechanism is no longer functional or only functional to a limited extent and
previously ne ed ed to b e s e nt to the factory f or m ai nt en anc e and cleanin g. T o s ave yo u fr om
doing this in future, we have developed Easy-Clean. You can easily clean Easy-Clean yourself
without great expense or effort.
The Easy-Clean grips need to be cleaned at least once a month!
Recommendation: In the case of an average of 8 to 10 treatments per day, you should clean
the grips every 14 days with the tool supplied. If you additionally want to clean the grips every
day for hygiene reasons – as well as the device itself – please only use the clamping
mechanism cleaner 2 (brush) with alcohol.
It is essential that you read this section with the utmost care! It contains
important information on protecting yourself, others and the device from
damage! It must only be used by trained professionals.
Never perform cleaning work or change a filter on a device that is still connected
to the mains. Turn off the device at the main switch beforehand and disconnect
it from the power supply.
Caution – risk of injury! Never try to perform cleaning work on the
handpiec e while the handpiece m otor is runni ng. The han dpiece motor
must be switched off.
Only the appropriat e t oo l sh ou l d be us ed to cle an Easy-Clean. Other types and
fields of application are carried out at your own risk, and may conceal dangers.
No form of misappropriation is permitted.
Improper use may lead to damage to persons or objects.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper
use, unqualifie d staff or i nco rr ect operating.
All warranty claims are void following improper use.
The clamping mechanism cleaner must only be used only for Easy-Clean
(developed for self cle aning). W ith conventi onal clampin g mechanism s which
are not intended for self cleaning, under no circumstances must the clamping
mechanism cleaner be used, as the clamping mechanism will immediately
suffer damage.
Clean the clampi ng device clean er 1 after each us e and make sure that it is
always in a perfect hygi enic co ndition before use.
We recommend a brush (Art-No. 34916) to clean the clamping mechanism
cleaner 1.
For hygiene reasons, please clean the clamping mechanism cleaner 2 after use
