1) The Wire Tensioner (54-1139) allows tensioning wires up to 130kg. An indication of the applied tension can be read from a scale (fig. 1).
2) Only when tensioning 1.5mm diameter wires, apply the specific Tension Limiter (54-1141) to physically limit the applied tension to 90kg.
Make sure to insert the Tension Limiter correctly, paying attention to the laser mark (fig. 2).
3) To exchange the different types of Wire Tensioner Tips, remove the Wire Tensioner's Tip by loosening the locking set-screw with the hex-driver (52-1018) (fig. 3). Do not remove the locking set-screw for any reason.
4) Using appropriate tools thoroughly clean the whole cannulation (fig. 4) to remove any debris that might be present. Additional information on cleaning and reprocessing can be found in the leaflet PQTLK.
5) Apply one drop of medical grade lubricant on moving elements when needed.
NOTE: Products that show excessive fading of marked product code and lot, thus preventing clear identification and traceability, must NOT BE USED.
