Using the HELIUS-40

Read through these instructions carefully before using your new equipment. Take special

care to read the safety instructions, they are included to keep you and those around you

safe. It is recommended that these instructions be kept in a safe and handy place for future

reference.

This equipment consists of a HADEWE control unit (the main body of the machine) and a

handpiece. The control unit consists of the built-in vacuum and electronic controls for the

handpiece. The control unit can be placed on a table or used as a mobile unit in a carrying

case.

The handpiece is installed with a 27 Volt precision micro-motor that is specifically designed

to work with a corresponding HADEWE control unit. Do not tamper with the handpieces

as incorrect voltage or improper settings can destroy the motor.

HADEWE machines are designed to be operated using Rotatools and burrs with a standard

3/32” shaft. Use only tools or burrs with the correct diameter.

Use the equipment only according to these instructions. Any repairs, modifications or

maintenance not described in these instructions should only be carried out by a HADEWE

technician. Never remove the housing of the control unit, especially when the equipment is

plugged into the power source, as some components are live and electric shock may occur.

or by any attempt to modify the equipment beyond the scope of these instructions.

Safety Information__________________________________________________

Important Safety Notes – READ FIRST!

HADEWE equipment should only be used by a trained operator.

Never change the Rotatool (burr, cap, implement, bit, etc.) while the motor is running!

To ensure that the Rotatool or burr is firmly fitted into the chuck, never work with tools

that have an oily shaft, are worn or are bent. Check that the burr is securely locked into

place before turning the equipment on.

Prevent hair from wrapping itself around moving parts. If necessary, wear a hairnet.

Safety glasses or goggles must be worn at all times during operation of this equipment.

Switch on the control unit only when handpiece is held firmly or in the handpiece-holder.

Always switch OFF the equipment after use.

Ensure that both the handpiece and the patient’s foot are held firmly in place during

operation. To prevent injuries, work with extreme caution on the foot of the patient and

use only light pressure, allowing the tool to do the work.

Always use the suction cleaner on level 4 or 5 when working on feet or nails. Additionally,

the operator should wear nose and mouth protection to prevent the inhalation of dust.

Always wear safety glasses.

Before using equipment ensure that:

• The shaft of the burr is completely dry, straight and clean.

• The burr is inserted fully into the clamping chuck (test with the enclosed dipstick

and clean if necessary)

• The burr is perfectly upright when fixed in the clamping chuck.

• The burr is firmly fixed in the clamping chuck when the sliding button on the

handpiece is set to the closed position (towards the back).

WARNING: NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RPM OF THE BURR / ROTATOOL

The burr must be approved for use at the revolutionary speed (max rpm) of the HADEWE

equipment being used (see manufacturer’s instructions). Your HELIUS-40 is capable of

operating at a speed range of 7000 to 40,000rpm as shown on the digital display.

Switch the equipment off immediately if:

the handpiece.

f. Reassemble the handpiece in reverse order. Ensure that the slide-button is

set to open (in the forward position) during assembly and that the chuck is

firmly tightened.

Maintenance & Care________________________________________________

Cleaning the Clamping Chuck

The seals on the handpiece should ensure that very little

dust enters into the handpiece. Nevertheless, you should

clean the chuck on a regular basis (once a month) or more

often if any of the following happen:

• The chuck can only be opened with extra force

• The Rotatool cannot be inserted far enough into the chuck. To check if cleaning is

necessary push the enclosed dipstick as far as possible into the chuck. If the groves

are visible, cleaning is necessary. (If the dipstick is not available, depth limit is 1”)

• The shaft of the Rotatools become dirty while in the handpiece

• Rotatools can only be inserted with force

In order to clean the clamping chuck, remove it from the handpiece (follow the instructions

on the previous page) and follow these instructions:

1. Soak the clamping chuck in mineral spirits or non-abrasive cleaning solution

2. Use a brush to clean slot and bore

3. Leave to dry

4. Rub a small drop of machine oil onto your fingers and then lubricate the chuck shaft

with the oil from your fingers. Do not use too much oil and never use cooking oil.

Maintenance & Care_________________________________________________

Helpful Advice

Never clean the handpiece while the motor is running or with a pressurized air device. Dirt

could be forced into the bearings causing damage.

Never immerse the handpiece in liquids including lubricant. Clean the surface with a damp

cloth but not with any sprays. Make sure no liquids penetrate the motor handset, doing so

could damage electrical components in the handpiece.

Always leave a tool or the enclosed dipstick in the unused handpiece.

Don’t drop or knock the handpiece. This could damage the bearings or the motor.

Using damaged tools causes extra vibration of the handpiece. This could result in damage

or destruction of the bearings, the clamping chuck and/or the motor.

Do not apply excessive force when working with the handpiece. Working with too high

pressure doesn’t improve performance as the motor is slowed down, while the extra

demand may result in increased wear and tear on the handpiece motor and bearings.

Maintenance & Care_________________________________________________

Troubleshooting

Problem Probable Cause Solution

Use of bent tools/burrs Try using a different tool to check if this

corrects problem

Handpiece vibrates, is very noisy Maximum allowed speed was

exceeded for the tool Check tool manufacturer’s recommended

speed and decrease speed on control unit

Handpiece is becoming very hot

during operation Too much pressure is being

applied during use Avoid pressing too hard when working,

instead let the tool do the work

Use of bent tools Use a different tool to test this

Tool/burr can be inserted only

with difficulty, or not at all Chuck is dirty Clean the chuck according to the instructions

in the manual

The chuck is open Slide the button on the handpiece back to

lock the chuck

Tool/burr does not spin The chuck is not tightened

well Tighten the chuck firmly according to the

instructions in the manual

Button on the handpiece cannot

be moved easily Chuck is dirty Clean the chuck according to the instructions

in the manual

The cable is not plugged in Check to ensure that the equipment is

plugged into a working wall socket

The main power button is

turned off Check at the back side of the unit to ensure

that the power button is ON

Equipment does not turn on

Footswitch is faulty Pull the footswitch out of the socket to see if

this corrects the problem

The burr stops suddenly Motor is overheating Let the unit rest 10-15 minutes then try

again. If motor operates normally try

working with less pressure on the handpiece.

The suction stops suddenly Suction motor is overheating

Check that the filter bag is not full and that

there is no obstruction of airflow for the

vacuum. Allow motor to cool 10-15 minutes

and try again.
