Inserting the Kirschner wire
The following diameter ranges can be set for the
adjustment sleeve:
∅ 0.6-1.8 mm
∅ 1.8-3.0 mm
∅ 3.0–4.0 mm
Leave clamping lever 4.3 in forward position (away
from the drive unit).
Set adjustment sleeve 4.2 to the correct diameter
range for the diameter of the Kirschner wire: Push
back and turn adjustment sleeve 4.2 until the
intended diameter range setting is reached.
Release adjustment sleeve 4.2, making certain that
adjustment sleeve 4.2 clicks into position.
Insert the Kirschner wire into the Kirschner wire
attachment until the required extension length is
reached.
The Kirschner wire is held in the intended position
in the attachment by an automatic clamping
mechanism.
Clamping the Kirschner wire
Pull clamping lever 4.3 towards the motor unit (the
stronger the clamping lever is pulled, the stronger
the clamping force on the Kirschner wire).
The Kirschner wire is clamped in now.
Note
The Kirschner wire remains clamped only as long as the
clamping lever is pulled towards the motor unit. The
clamping lever automatically returns to its rest position
away from the motor unit, and the Kirschner wire can
be moved freely again as soon as the clamping lever is
released.
