Or you could just temporarily remove the protective shrouds on the tips of the probes :yes:

Eh??? For a start what protective shrouds! You need to push hard to get a good contact it doesn't matter if you have the shrouds on or not! If the machine beeps and fails to take a reading, or you get a high reading, push hard, I have this machine I should know!!! F wit...

As do I, and my test probes have removable plastic tips so that more than 2mm of the tip is exposed. You're just making hard work for yourself. Or maybe you should buy a new one, or have your one recalibrated (you do know about that don't you? Of course you do).
