Pilot² 2.4. Touch display Remove the transport protective film before use. All functions of the EndoPilot² are called up using the convenient touch display. The touch display allows intuitive and self-explanatory operation. Operate the touch display with a light touch of the finger. Operation is of course possible when wearing gloves.
Pilot² 2.6. Charging, switching-on, standby mode, switching-off Make sure to fully charge the device before first use. (The device can only be charged or switched on with the inserted microSD card.) When charging, please ensure that the device has not been heated by sunlight. Charging is interrupted at a device temperature above 40°C.
The menu offers a variety of setting options. All parameters such as speed, torque and operating mode etc. may be changed individually. Parameters that deviate from the instrument manufacturer’s specifications may lead to file breakage and other damage. Schlumbohm ® is not liable for damage caused by operating the device in a way that deviates from the instrument manufacturer’s specifications.
Pilot² 2.9. Filling technique - BackFill Connect the BackFill gun (12) with the cable to the red socket (1f) of the device. The nut for BackFill needle (9) must be tightened with the wrench (13) to avoid leakage of gutta-percha at the thread.

Ultrasonic function Battery status display 3. Manual apex length determination In this menu you can pre-probe the canal manually, i.e. with a file guided by the hand.
Pilot² You can configure the settings in this Setup menu: For example, you can set different sounds and the volume. Caution: If you allow the file to touch the lip clip, this will cause a short circuit. With this short circuit you can test the correct operation of the display and apex locator.
Pilot² 4. Motor system 4.1. Favorites When you access the Preparation menu, the Favorites menu will appear. The device has a large file database. The values of many file systems are already stored in this database. Use the F i l e s y s t e m s button to reach the Selection menu (see 4.2).
Pilot² 4.3. Preparation After selecting the file system and the desired file, the Endomotor is started up using the foot switch in the Preparation menu. The selected file appears in the upper line. The speed and torque values of the file are indicated below. In addition to the currently selected file, further files are shown.
Pilot² 4.5. Setup motor The settings that apply to the entire preparation are chosen under this menu. It is possible to individually change the selected file’s parameters. Select the F i l e d a t a . The File setup opens (see below).
Pilot² 4.5.2. Reciprocal function General: An Endo instrument is set into a cyclic right-left movement with the reciprocal technique. The user rhythmically pulls the instrument out of the canal to remove chips. The advantage of this technique is the significant saving of time. Settings: Under the F i l e s y s t e m s...
Pilot² 4.5.3. Apex functions during motor operation You can select the settings that apply to the preparation under the A p e x S e t u p menu. (See also section chapter 3) You can set various sounds and the apex signal’s volume. Here, you define how the motor reacts when reaching the apex position.
Pilot² You can select a total of two modes of operation: 1. Apex function 0.5 seconds/ 1 second/ 2 seconds. A p e x s t o p The position or propulsion of the file in the root canal is displayed on the symbolized apex during preparation and the manual probing.

Pilot² Check the ultrasonic handpiece for damage before use and especially after each disinfection and sterilization. If there is any evidence of cracks, do not use the ultrasonic handpiece again. There is a risk of electric shock. Use a cofferdam with each treatment. This prevents the inhalation or ingestion of small parts. Do not leave the device unattended.
