Using the Radiolucent Drive:Before positioning the Radiolucent Drive, align the imageintensifier until the distal locking hole of the medullary nail isround and easily visible.
After the incision, position the Radiolucent Drive and centerthe drill bit tip over the locking hole. On the monitor of theimage intensifier, you can see both the drill bit and the targetrings of the drive.
Swing the drive up and center it precisely so that the drill bitappears as a round point and the locking hole is visiblearound it. The target rings also assist centering. The lockinghole 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 withadditional information on which drill bits can be used.
– Handle the Radiolucent Drive with great care. Do not allowcontact between the drill bit and the medullary nail.
– Depending on the setting of the image intensifier, a zonemay appear in the rear of the Radiolucent Drive that is notradiolucent. However, this does not inhibit aiming andworking with the device.
– To protect the gears, the Radiolucent Drive is equippedwith a slip clutch that disengages in case of an overloadand 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 followingcorrections:– 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.

Caution:It is best to use a three-flute drill bit in the Oscillating DrillAttachment. It is easier to drill into an angled surface withsuch bits.
Oscillating Drill Attachment (511.200)The Oscillating Drill Attachment (511.200) can be used on the Compact Air Drive II together with the AO/ASIF QuickCoupling (511.750).
Oscillating Saw Attachment (511.800)
Mounting the attachment:Shove the attachment onto the tool. There is a noticeableresistance. The attachment then clicks into place to showthat the coupling was successful. Once the attachment ismounted, reverse is automatically blocked.
The attachment can be locked in eight different positions.When the attachment needs to be rotated after it is coupled,it must first be uncoupled, and the attachment is pulledapprox. 1 cm forward. Adjust the desired angle (45° incre-ments), and shove the attachment back toward the tool untilit locks into place.
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.
Changing saw blades:1. Loosen the screw by about four turns with the key
(518.090). 2. Remove the saw blade by first pressing the saw blade
against the screw head, and then pull it out in a forwarddirection.
3. Insert the new saw blade by exerting a slight pressureagainst the screw head and then adjusting it to the posi-tion required. The saw blades can be locked in differentpositions.

Adjusting the amplitude:The deflection of the saw blade can be changed with theOscillating Saw Attachment (511.800). This is frequently nec-essary when doing precision work and when very long sawblades are used. Vibration can be minimized, and the sawingperformance can be optimized. It does not matter if thedeflection is set before you start or while you are working.
The neutral position is between the two extreme positionsand corresponds to a value of approximately 4°. If you wanta greater deflection, turn the adjusting lever toward “MAX“(5°). When the adjuster lever is set to “MIN”, there is adeflection of 2.5°. Maximum sawing power is obtained inthe centre position.

Reciprocating Saw Attachment (511.902)
Mounting the attachment:The attachment can be locked in eight different positions(offset in 45° steps). Shove the Reciprocating Saw Attach-ment onto the tool in the desired position. There is a notice-able resistance. The attachment then clicks into place andshows that the coupling was successful. Reverse is nowblocked.
To change the position, first release the coupling mechanismwith the release button, then use your other hand to shovethe attachment approx. 1 cm forward, rotate it into thedesired position, and shove it back until it locks on the tool.
Removing:Release the coupling mechanism with the release button,and then use your other hand to remove the attachmentfrom 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
the top trigger. This can damage the power tool.
Changing saw blades:Turn the lock knob in the direction of the arrow until the sawblade jumps forward approx. 1 mm. Remove the saw bladefrom the coupling (the slot of the lock knob and saw bladecoupling are in the same axis). Insert the new saw blade inthe guide slot of the saw blade coupling until the lock knobsprings back into locked position with a click (the slot of thelock knob and saw blade coupling are axially offset).

Top for Sternum for Reciprocating Saw Attachment (511.904)
Mounting the attachment:Use the Top for Sternum together with the ReciprocatingSaw Attachment (511.902). The Top for Sternum can beplaced on the Reciprocating Saw Attachment and tightenedwith the provided Allen wrench. Make sure that it is seated well.
Removing: Follow the same procedure in reverse.
Changing saw blades:Follow the same procedure as for Reciprocating Saw Attach-ment (511.902). Note that only Reciprocating Saw Blade(511.915) may be used since its length is adapted to thelength of the Top for Sternum.
Working with saw attachmentsThe tool must be operating when the attachment makescontact with the bone. Do not exert excessive pressure onthe saw since it slows down sawing because the saw teethcatch in the bone.
The best sawing performance is achieved by moving the toolslightly back and forth in the plane of the saw blade so thatthe blade can go a bit beyond the bone on both sides. Veryprecise cuts can be made when the saw blade is guidedsteadily. Imprecise cuts arise due to used blades, excesspressure, or jamming the saw blade.
Instructions for handling saw bladesSynthes recommends using a new blade for each operationto ensure that the saw blade is optimally sharp and clean.The following risks are associated with used blades: – Necrosis caused by excessive heat build-up– Infection caused by residue– Extended cutting time from poor sawing performance
