EN
• Excessive force may lead to bur bending, breakage or excess vibration. If the bur fractures during use, the resultant
sharp surfaces may cause lacerations of the body tissue. A bur which fractures inside a patient may also cause tissue
injury and necessitate emergency procedures for extraction.
• Eccentricity of the bur can cause bur vibration and may result in excess tissue and bone destruction and hearing
damage.
PRECAUTIONS
• Always handle handpieces with care to avoid damage.
• Make certain the appropriate bur is securely fastened into the handpiece prior to use. USE ONLY medtronic XOMED
ROTARY BURS INTENDED FOR USE WITH THE SKEETER ULTRA-LITE OTO-TOOL
• Excessive noise from the bur when drilling close to the cochlea or ossicular chain may cause hearing damage
• Excessive force may lead to bur bending, breakage or excess vibration. If the bur fractures during use, the resultant
sharp surfaces may cause lacerations of the body tissue. A bur which fractures inside a patient may also cause tissue
injury and necessitate emergency procedures for extraction.
• Eccentricity of the bur can cause bur vibration and may result in excess tissue and bone destruction and hearing
damage.
• DO NOT attempt to bend needle nose or effect repairs to the system.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WITH THE XPS 3000 (SEE FIGURE A)
1. Inspect components for damage and determine if system is ready to use.
2. On IV pole, mount XPS Model 3000 console and plug unit into power source.
3. On the rear of the console, turn the power switch to the ON position.
4. After removal of the handpiece from the sterilization tray, transfer the connector from the sterile field to the circulating
nurse.
5. The cable is plugged into the appropriate (smallest) connector in the console.
6. Connect footswitch into XPS Model 3000 console and place under operating table.
7. Load the desired bur for the procedure into the handpiece by inserting the bur shaft through the distal end of the
handpiece with a slight twisting motion while simultaneously depressing the bur release button. The bur is locked into
place when a "click" is noted. Locking of the bur should be checked prior to use by firmly pulling on the bur after the
"click" is noted. To remove the bur from the handpiece, depress the Bur Release Button on the handpiece and carefully
pull the bur out.
8. Select drill speed settings by depressing the top and bottom buttons (increase and decrease speed) in the control
button cluster.
9. Tug the bur to ensure its security in the handpiece.
10. Test drill by depressing foot pedal. The system is now ready to use.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WITH THE ACCELERATOR FOOT CONTROL
1. Invert the Accelerator Foot Control and open the trap door to the battery compartment on the base of the unit by
pulling upward.
2. Insert three (3) 9 volt alkaline batteries (Duracel MN1604 9 volt batteries are recommended) into the battery holders
on the trap door making certain that the batteries are firmly snapped into place and properly aligned in conformance
with the polarity indicator label affixed to the trap door.
3. Securely snap the battery compartment trap door closed.
4. Test the batteries by pressing the Battery Check Button on the right side of the Accelerator Foot Control. The green
indicator light located adjacent to the button will illuminate if the batteries provide sufficient voltage for operation.
Should the indicator light fail to illuminate, recheck the seating of the batteries to confirm proper installation and
repeat the battery check. Should the indicator light still fail, replace the batteries with fresh ones.
5. Batteries should be checked in the above manner prior to each use of the system.
6. Load the desired bur for the procedure into the handpiece by inserting the bur shaft through the distal end of the
handpiece with a slight twisting motion while simultaneously depressing the bur release button.
7. The bur is locked into place when a "click" is noted. Locking of the bur should be checked prior to use by firmly pulling
on the bur after the "click" is noted.
8. To remove the bur from the handpiece, depress the Bur Release Button on the handpiece and carefully pull the bur
out.
9. Position the Accelerator Foot Control on the floor near the surgeon's foot. Drop the sterilized handpiece cord and plug
into the receptacle on the Accelerator Foot Control.
10. The operating speed of the handpiece may be varied with the Accelerator Foot Control by depressing the foot pedal
forward with the toe to increase speed and by depressing the foot pedal backward with the heel for slower drill
operation.
