Complaint is confirmed.Functional testing was not performed on the returned 5033-100 due to the damage to the tip of the device.Visual evaluation noted that the tip of the device is broken off and was returned.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to use error due to excessive user-applied mechanical forces.
