4 Assemble the reaming system
Connect the SynReam Flexible Shaft (352.040) to the drill and
plug the first SynReam Medullary Reamer Head (352.085)
onto the shaft. The reamer heads can be picked up directly,
without hand contact, from the insert for medullary reamer
heads using the SynReam flexible shaft.
Start with the smallest reamer head (
8.5 mm, 352.085)
and then increase in 0.5 mm increments using the larger
reamer heads (352.090–190). The reaming depth should be
identical to the chosen nail length.
5 Insert reaming system
Insert the assembled reaming system, without rotating it, over
the SynReam reaming rod into the medullary canal. Use the
Tissue Protector (351.050) to spare the soft tissues.
