D Cutting the syringe with a blade according to the measurements. E Preparing the stopper’s rubber part by using scissors to remove the rubber seal’s ramifications. F Installing the rubber on the prepared plastic Luer slip. G Using the needle nose to straighten the irrigating cannula. H Implanting the irrigating cannula in the rubber seal through the rubber ring. I Using the irrigating cannula as a guide to putting the 30-gauge needle out of the rubber seal. J Fixing the plastic Luer slip to the plastic part of the 30-gauge needle.
