operation of the device.
Stretch flabby skin.
With the sliding surface in level contact with the
skin, push forward dermatome 1 in a smooth
movement, applying gentle pressure. Be careful not
to cant dermatome 1.
For very thin grafts, use a forceps, from time to
time, to lay up the resected portion of the graft on
surface 13.
Switch off the motor and extract the fresh graft
from the dermatome.
