The instrument heads indicated on the front foil are intended to help you
identify the maximum speed for your instruments. However, before you work

permitted maximum speed. The maximum speed specified there must not be
exceeded under any circumstances. This poses a danger of injury and the
danger that your device will be damaged.

Now select the permitted maximum speed for the instrument you currently want to work
with. The instrument heads depicted (max. diameter) and the associated speed should

;
otherwise the instrument or the handpiece may be damaged. It can also cause injury
due to broken instrument heads. The correct permitted maximum speed for the
instrument you currently want to use can be found by comparing the instrument diameter
on the front film with the instrument heads shown. Once you have found a match, press
the illustrated instrument head that you have found to be correct. The permitted
maximum
speed is now set. The speed is shown in the display. Lower speeds are
generally permitted for all of the instruments.
