Precaution - Synthes Battery Power Line II Instructions For Use Manual

Notes:
• Always turn the mode switch to "OFF" position
when inserting/removing attachments and cutting
tools.
• If the attachment does not engage properly then
rotate the attachment gently until the drive shaft
engages.
• All BPL/BPL II attachments are fully compatible
with the BPL/BPL II handpieces (530.605/530.705).
• After inserting a cutting tool, always check that it
is properly engaged by pulling it.
• Only use original Synthes attachments and cutting
tools.
• Check the cutting tools for wear and/or damage
after each use, and replace if necessary. Synthes
recommends that cutting tools are only used once
for patient safety.
• The use of irrigation fluid is recommended to cool
the cutting tools and prevent heat necrosis.
• Damage resulting from the use of attachments
and cutting tools from other manufacturers is not
co vered by the warranty.

Precaution:

• During reaming procedures high torque values
must be provided by the power tool to the reaming
head to allow efficient bone removal. In cases
where the reaming head is suddenly blocked these
high torque values can be transferred onto the
user's hands, wrists and/or the patient's body.
In order to prevent injuries it is therefore essential
that:
– The power tool is held in an ergonomic position
with a firm grip.
– If the reamer head blocks, the speed trigger is
released immediately.
– The correct function of the speed trigger (imme-
diate stop of system when the trigger is released)
is checked before the reaming process.
