Страница: 5 / 22

Allow the cut graft to accumulate in the pocket of the handpiece. Lift the handpiece away from
the donor site to end the graft. Return the throttle to the SAFE position and carefully remove the
graft. (See Fig. 10)
• Method II
Use tissue forceps to gently lift the graft as it emerges from the pocket area. Do not stretch or pull the
graft as this causes irregular edges and nonuniform cuts. Lift the handpiece away from the donor site
to end the graft. Return the throttle to the SAFE position. (See Fig. 11.)
• Do not run the Zimmer Electric Dermatome without cutting for an extended time. Release the on/off
lever and return the safety lock to the SAFE position between cuts to remove the graft.
AFTER THE PROCEDURE
• Unplug from wall receptacle.
• To remove the Zimmer Electric Dermatome connector plug from the power supply, pull outward on the
outer sleeve of the plug to separate the plug from the receptacle.
• Remove the used blade and dispose of properly in designated sharps container or per hospital protocol.
• Remove excess body fluids and tissue with a disposable, non-shedding wipe and cover with a damp
cloth. Body fluids and tissue should not be allowed to dry on instruments prior to cleaning.
• Return and secure instrument and width plates to instrument case for transport and cleaning.
BLADE REMOVAL
• Loosen the width plate screws. Do not remove the screws.
• To remove the width plate, hold both sides and lift. Do not lift the width plate from the front as this will
cause contact with the blade and possible injury.
