The plaster saw comprises several crucial components, including the electric main unit, a transmission shaft, bushing, eccentric shaft, bearings, transmission clamp, circular and linear saw blades, housing, front cover, securing screws, power cord, and wiring plug. Designed for the removal of plaster and gypsum bandages in orthopedic surgery, the plaster saw boasts remarkable features, including robust power, a lightweight design, stable operation, minimal vibrations, low noise, and a high level of safety and reliability, even in the face of temperatures as high as 135°C. The motor is equipped with double insulation protection to ensure the safety of both the operator and the patient.
1.Operating Instructions:
Before using the device, ensure the saw blade is flat, has no missing teeth, and is securely installed. When installing the saw blade, firmly secure it by turning the cap clockwise using a 5mm hex wrench.
Begin by disinfecting the plaster saw with a formalin solution. Turn on the electric main unit, and activate the primary switch to start the device.
When working, hold the plaster saw firmly and gently position it on the plaster you wish to cut, ensuring a vertical cutting motion. If you’re unsure, avoid cutting too deeply, even though the tool provides soft tissue protection.
For vertical gypsum cutting, lift the plaster saw slightly, move it forward, and then gently place it in the lower section to be cut. Repeat this process until the task is completed.
2.Important Points to Remember:
When plugging in the power cord, exercise caution not to accidentally activate the plaster sawl’s power switch to prevent potential hazards.
Apply appropriate pressure during use; avoid excessive force. The saw blade oscillates effectively when moderate pressure is applied.
If the saw blade becomes jammed in the gypsum during the cutting process, power should be gradually cut off, instead of toggling the power switch on and off. This prevents sudden motor load fluctuations that may damage the motor.
The temperature of the motor casing increases over time during operation. If the casing becomes excessively hot, suspend usage and allow it to cool before resuming, as continued operation under these conditions can lead to motor overheating and potential damage.
3.Maintenance and Care:
Regularly inspect the electric main unit’s insulation performance to ensure the safe use of electricity.
Periodically assess the performance of each component. If the motor operates abnormally or mechanical issues arise, conduct a thorough examination of the mechanical structure. Depending on the situation, replace parts or initiate repairs. Following repairs, apply new MOS2 grease to prevent wear on transmission components due to inadequate lubrication, which can impact the device’s lifespan.
