Instructions for Use
1. After prepping and draping the patient,
perform the incision and retraction techniques
required to expose the skull.
2. Select the appropriate drill bit. Use the
5.8 mm drill bit for ventriculostomy or
intraparenchymal skull bolt procedures. Use
the 2.7 mm drill bit for subdural or other
intraparenchymal procedures.
3. Place the drill bit into the chuck as shown
in Figure 1.
4. While holding the drill handle in place,
tighten the drill bit by turning the chuck
counterclockwise. See Figure 2.
NOTE: To remove the drill bit, repeat this step
turning the chuck clockwise.
5. Loosen the drill guide using the hex wrench.
6. Carefully slide the drill guide towards the tip
of the drill bit until the determined skull depth
is reached.
WARNING: The drill guide will not stop the
drill. The guide is designed only to provide the
neurosurgeon with a marker for drilling depth.
7. Tighten the drill guide in place with the
hex wrench.
8. Begin drilling procedure.
WARNING: The drilling procedure must be
performed with the drill held within 10° of
the orthoganal position to the skull. When
used with the skull bolt, installing at an angle
may result in a fracture of the device or in
an inadequate seal between the washer and
the skull.
