Caution
To prevent injury, the tool must be locked with the safety
system (see page 4) during each manipulation.
Make sure not to press the triggers (especially the top
trigger) when mounting and removing the attachments.
When mounting and removing attachments, do not simul-
taneously pull on the attachment while pressing the
unlocking button. This can make it difficult to remove the
attachment.
After the tool has been fully inserted, release the ring. Pull
on the tool to make sure that it is correctly locked in the cou-
pling.
After the tool has been fully inserted, release the coupling
sleeve. Pull on the tool to make sure that it is correctly locked
in the coupling.

Swing the drive up and center it precisely so that the drill bit
appears as a round point and the locking hole is visible
around it. The target rings also assist centering. The locking
hole can now be drilled directly.
Caution
Only special 3-flute spiral drill bits can be used. Your
Synthes representative will be glad to provide you with
additional information on which drill bits can be used.
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.
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.
The following procedures can cause an overload:
Correcting the drilling angle when the cutting edges
of the drill bit are completely in the bone.
Running into the nail with the drill bit.
Drilling can continue after making the following
corrections:
Correcting the drilling angle: Remove the drill bit until
the flutes are visible, and restart drilling.
Hitting a nail: Remove the drill bit until the flutes are
visible, and re-aim the drill bit or exchange the drill bit
if necessary.
Removing:
Follow the same procedure in reverse.
Let the sleeve slide back, and check that the drill bit is
properly locked by pulling on it.
Removing:
Follow the same procedure in reverse.
Caution:
It is best to use a three-flute drill bit in the Oscillating Drill
Fig. 2
Attachment. It is easier to drill into an angled surface with
such bits.

Removing:
Follow the same procedure in reverse.
Caution
Do not simultaneously pull the saw attachment forward
while pressing the release button.
When removing the saw attachment, keep the vent hole
free on the bottom of the coupling shaft.
When mounting and removing the attachment, do not
press the top trigger. This can damage the power tool.

Removing:
Release the coupling mechanism with the release button,
and then use your other hand to remove the attachment
from the machine.
Caution
Do not simultaneously pull the saw attachment forward
while pressing the release button.
When removing the saw attachment, keep the vent hole
free on the bottom of the coupling shaft.
When coupling and releasing the attachment, do not press

Caution:
The Torque Limiter must be annually serviced and
recalibrated by Synthes. Note the information on the test
certificate in the packaging. The user is responsible for
following the calibration schedule.

Care and Maintenance
Lubrication
Caution
To ensure a long service life and reduce repairs, the power
tool and all attachments must be lubricated after each use.
Exception: The Radiolucent Drive (511.300) may not be
lubricated.
The power tool and accessories may only be lubricated
with Synthes special oil (519.970). The composition of the
vapor-permeable and biocompatible oil is optimized for the
specific requirements of the power tool. Lubricants with
other compositions can cause the power tool to jam and
be toxic.
Only lubricate the power tool and attachments when
clean.
Compressed air hoses should never contact oil. When
lubricating, never use a double hose without the adapter
for oiling (519.790) since leaking oil could otherwise
damage the hose.
