Who this is for

The office manager who has to keep chairs turning this week.

This is equipment management, not a lecture. Fewer rooms down, fewer Friday surprises.

What actually cuts downtime

Five habits. None of them need a new delivery unit.

Same day

Mail it today

Do not finish the week on a rattling high-speed.

Spare

One extra in rotation

Covers the two days the original is on the bench.

Status

Truth

Estimate first

If it is not worth repairing, you hear that before work starts.

Handpieces on a delivery unit with instruments on the tray

A room down costs more than a turbine

Chair time is the hidden number. Repair turnaround is usually shorter than waiting on a new OEM unit.
