Position Finger Guard
❶
LUBRICATE
:
Liberally
apply surgical lube to the ring and the surrounding skin surface. This
makes it easier to position the guard, acts as a coolant and picks up any metal dust.
❷
POSITION THE GUARD
:
The finger guard
is flexible; it can be bent, even into a “U” to fit under
even an embedded ring. Slide the guard between the ring and the finger.
❸
MATE THE GUARD TO THE DRIVE UNIT
:
The channel of the finger guard is designed to
precisely guide the disc in order to produce an accurate cut.
❺
Activate Drive Unit
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
❶
PRESS THE RED BUTTON TO ACTIVATE
❷
BRING ROTATING DISC IN CONTACT WITH RING’S SURFACE
❻
Cut and Remove Ring
❶
Use the Correct Technique: Sweep the rotating disc back and forth across the surface, do not
press down. Downward pressure will prevent the disc from freely rotating, if the drive unit stalls
ease up and allow the abrasive disc to do its work.
❷
For softer metals, make a single cut then use the Mooney Ring Spreader™ (Order code #250)
to spread and remove the ring.
❸
For titanium, chromium cobalt and tungsten carbide, or if the ring is to be preserved and
repaired, make two cuts.
MONITOR PROGRESS
– DO NOT CUT INTO THE FINGER GUARD.
