Instructions
WARNINGS:
• DO NOT attempt to insert or remove any cutting
accessory or attachment while the handpiece
is operating.
• DO NOT apply excessive pressure, such as
bending or prying, with the blade. Excessive
pressure may bend or fracture the blade and
cause tissue damage and/or loss of tactile
control.
• Before operating the handpiece, gently tug the
blade to verify it is secure.
• Before operating the handpiece, gently rotate
the blade mount to verify it is seated properly
(should not rotate, fully recessed). Failure to
comply may result in excessive handpiece
vibration/noise and patient and/or operating
room staff injury.
NOTE: Operate Sagittal Saw Attachment with lower
trigger only. Cutting efficiency is lost if both triggers
are depressed to operate this attachment in the
oscillate mode.
To Install a Blade
1. Insert the blade into the blade mount retaining
gap.
2. Depress the button to allow the blade to fully
enter the gap and seat against the post, then
release the button.
CAUTION: The blade can be safely installed in
five possible cutting angle positions. ALWAYS
install the blade in one of the five positions shown.
Failure to comply may cause the blade to strike the
handpiece during operation.
3. Gently rotate the blade against the post until it
snaps into the desired location. If necessary,
depress the button again to rotate the blade to
the desired location.
4. To index the blade mount, pull out and slightly
rotate the mount until it snaps (recesses) into
the desired location. The blade mount will
index in 45-degree increments or eight possible
