Instructions
1. Pull the sagittal head forward and away from the
handpiece body; then rotate it to the desired cutting
angle (see figure 2).
NOTE: The sagittal head has eight possible cutting
angle positions (45° increments).
CAUTION:
Before use, the sagittal head must be firmly locked
against the handpiece body to prevent damage to the
instrument. Ensure NO gap exists between the sagittal
head and the handpiece body.
2. Once positioned, gently turn the sagittal head to
ensure that it has snapped into place against the
handpiece body and is locked into position (see
figure 2).
