NOTE
The handpiece is equipped with a projectile safety catch device in order to prevent the projectile from being ejected in case a
shock is released while the shock transmitter and the shock transmitter screw cap are removed.
The safety catch is also activated if the shock transmitter screw cap is not screwed on tightly, if the sealing ring between the cap
and the shock transmitter is missing or if two sealing rings (old and new) come together at the rear of the shock transmitter.
CAUTION
Danger of injury due to pulse triggering when handpiece is open.
• Disconnect the handpiece from the control unit before starting any cleaning or
maintenance work.
• After the projectile safety catch device was released the first time this device
has to be
replaced. Please send the handpiece for reparation.
