and then refit the head, tightening it appropriately to ensure the best
possible electrical continuity between the parts.
If the electrode cannot be inserted into the collet, extract the collet from its
location and push in the electrode with force; when the electrode has
been inserted, refit the resulting assembly into the handpiece and then
refit the head as described above.
Always sterilize the handpiece and electrodes before use; the handpiece
is specifically designed for sterilization in an autoclave.
Always switch OFF the appliance after use by setting the main
power switch to "0".
