Insert the file into the canal. [Fig 4-6]
Attach the file holder B to the file (If using holder A, touch
the file below the handle with the file holder). [Fig 4-7]
Insert the file slowly into the root canal while checking the
graph and the number value on the screen. Stop insertion
when the distance between the file and root apex reaches
the standard value of the root apex (pre-set factory setting
at 0.0mm or your chosen value). As the file nears the
apical constriction, the unit will beep more rapidly. When
the apex is reached the file is touching the periodontal
membrane and a red bar will appear at the "Apex" on
the screen. As it goes past the apical constriction, the
frequency of beeps increases until the screen reads "-0.5. "
Then the sound will remain steady and the entire screen
will flash.

Continue inserting the file to -0.1 (if the standard value of
the root apex is set at 0.0) then move the file back until
0.0 is displayed on the screen. This helps to confirm the
location of the apex. [Fig 4-8~Fig 4-10]
After positioning the rubber stop of file on the tooth at the
reference point the file should be removed from the canal.
Measure the working length from the tip of the file to the
rubber stop with a ruler. After positioning the rubber stop
on the file to a reference point, the file should be removed
from the tooth.
