Radiolucent Drive
▲ Precautions:
•
To protect the gears, the Radiolucent Drive is equipped
with a slip clutch that disengages in case of an
overload and emits an audible rattling noise.
•
The following procedures can cause an overload:
–
Correcting the drilling angle when the cutting edges
of the drill bit are completely in the bone.
–
Hitting the medullary nail with the drill bit.
•
If overload occurs, drilling can be continued after
having made the following corrections:
–
Correcting the drilling angle: remove the drill bit until
the flutes are visible and then restart the drilling.
–
Hitting a medullary nail: remove the drill bit until the
flutes are visible and re-aim the drill bit or exchange
the drill bit if necessary.
•
Handle the Radiolucent Drive with great care.
Do not allow contact between the drill bit and the
medullary nail.
•
Depending on the setting of the image intensifier,
a zone may appear in the rear of the Radiolucent Drive
that is not radiolucent. However, this does not inhibit
aiming and working with the device.
