3 Safety Guidelines
Configuring and operating this equipment requires precise knowledge and observance
of the instructions in this user manual. The equipment is designed only for its intended
application.
WARNING:
Servicing and repairs should be carried out only by authorised specialists.
Disconnect the power plug before starting any maintenance work.
Make sure that the equipment is connected to the correct power source.
The safety valve on the pressure tank opens automatically if the operating
pressure is more than 7 bar.
The pressure can be activated only if the door is closed completely, since a
safety door contact is installed.
Dry-run protection, which switches off at 112°C (brown button on the left side of
the device).
WARNING: Risk of scalding during the Hot Polymerisation.
Never open the lid while the unit is under pressure !
Never open the lid while the temperature is higher than 97 °C !
Open the lid slowly!
Display information have to be followed !
For safety-related reasons (hot water, pressure), only the valves and hoses
meant for this purpose must be used for draining. If parts of different
design are used / installed (self-made), there is a risk of scalding!

4 Responsibility for Operation or Damage
The responsibility for operating the device lies exclusively with the owner or user if said
device is incorrectly serviced, maintained or altered by persons not employed by an
authorised dealer or if the device is used in a manner contrary to its specified purpose.
The unit has to be maintained and operated in accordance with this user manual.

nonobservance of these instructions.
Warranty and responsibility provisions contained in the sales and supply conditions of
Wassermann Dental-Maschinen GmbH are not extended by these instructions.
5 Application
The Polyquick 260 is a pressure polymerisation unit for hot and cold polymerisation of
plastics. It can be set to a maximum temperature of 105°C and the polymerisation
pressure can be adjusted to a maximum of 5 bar. In automatic mode, the polymerisation
time can be preselected up to 99 hours. It has a particularly large pressure pot volume and
can hence also accommodate extra large articulators or up to 6 brass flasks including
clamp. A touch screen and the newly developed control panel allow the user to set the
relevant parameters quickly and easily using self-explanatory symbols. The Polyquick 260
can also be used as a pressure compactor without heating.
Only use the device for this type of application.

6 Before Starting
6.1 Transport
Before transporting the unit, ensure that it has been unplugged from the power socket.
Make sure that it is packed correctly in order to avoid accidental damage.
Be sure to check for any transport damage when unpacking the goods. Note
down any damage if found.
6.2 Installation
Open the box, remove the packing materials, and carefully lift out the device and
accessories. Check the included accessories.
The device has to stand horizontally on a steady and even surface.
Install the device in a place where it will not block the working area and the
functionality (take the dimensions into account).
Do not install the unit outdoors or in places without proper ventilation.
Before start-up, be sure the device reaches room temperature.
It is advisable to install the device firmly on the drainage system, since very hot
water can drain off from it. This also simplifies the process of complete
emptying, e.g. for cleaning.
6.3 Storage
If the unit is to be stored for an extended period, protect it from moisture and dust.

7 Installation/ Start-up
Before commissioning, please install the following connections:
Install the pressure hose included in the scope of supply and provide for an
appropriate outlet.
After setting the workpiece, fill the device with tap water, at most up to the engraving in the
tank. Establish a pneumatic connection of minimum 2 bar. If the pneumatic pipe is long,
pay attention to the hose cross-section (internal diameter min. 6 mm). Every pneumatic
pipe must always have a maintenance unit. Ensure a constant pressure by using the
pressure reducer.
Finally, insert the plug into the socket – make sure that the voltage specification of the
device and the mains network is identical.
Never operate the device without water, since the heating unit immediately
heats up to 60°C or to the preheating temperature when the power switch is
activated. If required, the heating unit can be switched off via the display.
7.1 Setting the Correct Pressure
Before filling the tank, remove the accessories and set the correct polymerisation
pressure. Proceed as follows (image, see 5.2):
1. Activate main switch (green rocker switch).
2. Close lid.
3. Touch the Pressure key (image, see 5.2). (4.0 bar default).
4. If the pressure is very less (min. 2 bar), increase the pressure (max.5 bar) using the
black regulator on the back side. Release the regulator by pulling to do the setting
and press it in once again.
5. If the pressure is too high, switch off the pressure (image, see 5.2) and release
the pressure. Turn the pressure regulator on the back side in the "minus" direction
several times; then, apply pressure to the tank. You can set the desired pressure by
turning the regulator in the "plus" direction (max. 5 bar)
