IMPORTANT: Unpacking and repacking of the AMC-20CF Dental System requires two or more people. When fully loaded, the module can weigh up to 194 lbs (87.9 kg). Lifting, moving, and joining of the dental cart and transport case requires considerable physical dexterity and strength. Caution should be exercised when removing/assembling this unit into its case.
NOTE: This Manual provides instructions for unpacking and repacking the AMC-20CF System into its transport case. For detailed information on operation of the dental cart and its accessories, refer to its Operation and
Maintenance Instruction Manual, PN 420791, included within this AMC-20CF transport case, or contact Aseptico at the address provided on page 9.
UNPACKING THE SYSTEM
Step 1 - Separate the Case Halves
:
NOTE: The AMC-20CF transport case includes built-in pallet skids that support the Dental Cart in a vertical upright position when shipping. Before opening the case, the case must first be lowered to a horizontal position so that it rests on its bottom half. The two halves can then be safely detached and separated.
A. Using the handles provided on the case ends, lower the case to a horizontal position so that it's resting on the back side of the bottom half (see Fig. 1A) .
(NOTE: The pallet skids are permanently attached to this bottom half.) IMPORTANT - A minimum of two people are required to lower the case to its horizontal position.
B.
Press the pressure release valve on the side of the case to relieve any pressure buildup inside the case.
Unlatch the eighteen clasps holding the two halves together and carefully lift top half off bottom half (see
Fig. 1B). Take note of the orientation of the two halves to assure the best fit when reassembling the halves later. Stow top half away for use later during reassembly.
C.
Using the handles provided on the top end of the case shell, lift the case and Cart to the vertical upright position (see Fig. 1C). IMPORTANT - A minimum of two people are required to raise the case to its vertical position.

Step 2 - Remove Accessories Case & Packing Materials:
A. Pull the accessories case out of its shelf (see Fig.
2A). Set the accessories case aside for use later, during assembly of the Cart (see Figs. 8 & 9, page 7 for accessories case contents and setup).
B.
Carefully lift foam packing block from top of Cart and place on top of case (see Figs. 2B & 2D). Note the orientation of the two cutouts in the block to the corresponding dental instrument holders located on the Cart's rotating arms (see Fig. 2C). IMPORTANT:
Always ensure that the instrument holders are positioned in their respective protective cutouts when transporting the Cart. The packing block is tethered to the case, to prevent it from getting lost or mislaid.
C.
Unbuckle the holding straps on each side of the
Cart (push button to release buckle). Unwrap straps from left and right side handles on the Cart (see Fig.
2E). Note how each strap is wound once around the side handle.

Step 2 - Remove Packing Materials - cont'd:
E.
Unbuckle the holding straps on each side of the
Cart (push button to release buckle). Unwrap straps from left and right side handles on the Cart (see Fig.
2E). Note how each strap is wound once around the side handle.
Step 3 - Deploy Loading Ramp:
A.
Unbuckle the holding strap for the loading ramp
(see Fig. 3A) and carefully lower the hinged ramp to the floor.
B.
Remove foam packing block from front of Cart by carefully withdrawing the block through the loops of instrument tubing (see Fig. 3B). Note how the instrument tubing is looped through the foam cutouts in the front and back of the block. IMPORTANT:
When transporting the Cart, always ensure that the instrument tubing is looped correctly through their respective foam cutouts. Place the front block on the top of the case, for reassembly later. The block is tethered to prevent it from getting lost or mislaid.
Step 4 - Raise Cart Off Support Blocks:
A.
Locate the scissors jack at the bottom of the Cart, positioned between the two bottom foam support blocks (see Fig. 4A). IMPORTANT: Before lifting the
Cart, ensure that the cutouts in the scissors jack platform align properly with the bolts protruding from the bottom of the Cart.
B.
Locate the jack crank handle in the foam pocket provided on the right hand side of the case (see Fig.
4A). The handle is held in place with a velcro strip.

Step 4 - Raise Cart - cont'd :
C.
Attach the crank handle to jack. The hooked end of the handle engages the ring on the end of jack (see
Fig. 4B).
D.
Slowly and carefully turn the jack crank clockwise to raise the cart, just enough to take the weight off the two support blocks. IMPORTANT: Provide adequate support to the Cart while raising the jack, to prevent the Cart from tipping forward.
Pull the two support blocks from underneath the Cart and set blocks aside (see Fig. 4B) for repacking later. The blocks are tethered to prevent them from getting lost or mislaid.
NOTE: Repacking the Cart When using the jack to lower the Cart down onto the two supporting blocks, first allow the Cart to rest on top of the blocks, then raise the jack slightly to apply a very slight pressure against the cart bottom -- do not lift the Cart off its supporting blocks .
Step 5 - Lower Cart Onto Loading Ramp:
A.
Slowly and carefully turn the jack crank counterclockwise to lower the cart down onto the loading ramp, until it rests firmly on its wheels (see
Fig. 5). IMPORTANT: Provide adequate support to the Cart when lowering the jack, to prevent the Cart from tipping forward.
B.
Pull the scissors jack out of its jacking dock located underneath the Cart (see Fig. 5). Set jack aside for use later when repacking the cart.
NOTE: Repacking the Cart When positioning the scissors jack underneath the Cart prior to raising it, the cutouts in the jack platform (see Fig. 5) must be aligned to the bolts on the bottom of the Cart.
Step 6 - Offload Cart From Case:
A.
Locate the Foot Pedal in the foam compartment located on the right-hand side of the case (see Fig.
6A). Remove Pedal from compartment and place on top of Cart.
B.
Stand directly in front of the Cart and grasp the two blue side handles firmly. Slowly and carefully roll the Cart out of the case and guide it down the loading ramp (see Fig. 6B). IMPORTANT: Provide adequate support to the Cart when rolling it out of the case. This task might require more than one person.

REPACKING THE SYSTEM
When repacking the Dental System into its case, follow the unpacking instructions found in this
Guide in Reverse Order.
Following are key points to remember when repacking the System:
1 . Remove all accessories from the Cart.
2.
Remove all liquid wastes and water from water bottles, amalgam separator, and bypass filter.
3.
Purge air pressure from air tank.
4.
Detach syringe and scaler instruments from their hoses and install into their shipping fasteners located under the
Cart's top lid..
5.
Open shipping case and deploy built-in loading ramp.

Carefully roll the AMC-20CF unit, back side first, up the ramp and into the case. Use the two side handles when pushing/rolling the unit. More than one person might be required to push the unit into the case. CAUTION: When moving and lifting the Cart, always provide adequate support, to prevent tipping.
7.
Position the scissors jack into the jacking dock which is mounted onto the loading ramp. Push the jack all the way in so it fully seats into the dock. Ensure that the cutouts on the jack platform are properly aligned with the bolts on the bottom of the Cart. Raise the Cart until the bottoms of the casters are approximately 3/4-inch above the ramp floor. Insert the two foam supporting
Page 8 blocks under the cart. Lower the jack until the Cart rests on the blocks, then gently snug the jack back up against the bottom of the Cart.
8.
Install the protective foam packing blocks on the front and top of the Cart. Ensure the Cart's dental instrument holders are aligned with the cutouts on the top packing block (carefully rotate the Cart's pivoting arms until the holders are aligned with cutouts). Ensure that the dental instrument hoses are looped correctly through the cutouts on the front and back of the packing block.
9.
Stow the amalgam separator block, foot pedal, and jack crank handle into their respective foam compartments and secure with velcro strips.
10.
Secure and tighten the holding straps on the sides of
Cart. Wrap the straps once around the side handles.
11.
Fold the loading ramp up against the front packing block and secure it tightly with the buckled strap provided.

Slide the Accessories Case into the top shelf.
13.
Carefully lower the case and Cart down onto its back side, until the case lays flat on the floor. This task will require two or more people.
