handpiece as far as possible in order to
provide proper support and close the collet or

may tend to bend or break the shank or arbor of
an accessory. Let the speed of the accessory do
the work.
DO NOT stall the motor by jamming or using

excessive pressure on the mounted point, buff,

the motor.

If the power cord or plug to the handpiece
