WARNINGS:
• Clean and disinfect Cast Cutter and Cast Cutter Blades prior to each use. See Cleaning and Maintenance.
• Prior to use, check blades for wear. DO NOT use a dull blade. Use of a dull blade could result in a burn injury to tissue.
• Use only Stryker Cast Cutter Blades. Titanium nitrided blades are intended to cut synthetic casting material; and stainless
steel blades to cut plaster casting material. Ion nitrided blades will cut synthetic or plaster casting material. See Reorder
List in this manual for details.
CAUTION: The blade must be mounted on the Stryker Cast
Cutter in the following manner or damage to the equipment and
inefficiency of cutting will result.
1. Use the Cast Cutter Blade Tool included with your Cast Cut-
ter to loosen the blade retaining nut. Turn nut counterclock-
wise until it no longer turns.
2. Place the desired blade on the blade mount. Slip the blade
over the nut and posts. The posts will guide the blade into
position. Pull the blade down behind the nut. Ensure that
all four posts have engaged the blade.
3. Use the Cast Cutter Blade Tool to tighten the nut against the
blade. Turn nut clockwise. Make sure the blade is secure
and all four posts are engaged.
WARNING: Make sure blade is properly seated in the
Cast Cutter and retaining nut is tightened before each
use. An improperly tightened retaining nut may come
loose, causing blade to fracture, thereby endangering
patient and user.
