!
Danger of injury due to unintentional activation. Pull out the plug before
changing the saw blade. If applicable use thick gloves to prevent injury
when handling the saw blade. Only ever connect the HEBU oscillating cast
cutting saw to the mains when it is switched off.
3 Scope
The use of oscillating plaster saws mainly takes place in orthopaedics for plaster removal.
3.1 Inteded Use
A hand-held, current-driven (AC) product for cutting gypsum or synthetic material usually during the
removal of a plaster cast. The proximal end (the handle) is usually cylindrical, while the distal end
terminates in a round, crescent-shaped, or circular blade suitable for cutting plaster casting material. The
leaves cut as an electric motor in the handle drives them (swinging). The cut is done by vibration rather
than by sawing.
3.2 Contraindication
There are no known contraindications.
4 Mounting / exchanging the saw blade
4.1 Releasing the retaining screw / removing the old saw blade
1. Place the cast cutting saw on a stable underlay (table).
2. Apply one fork wrench at the drive shaft behind the saw blade,
and the other one at the front at the retaining screw (see fig. 1).
3. Hold the rear wrench firmly and use it to fix the cast cutting saw.
4. Release the retaining screw using the front wrench.
5. Remove the retaining screw and the fixing ring.
Ensure that you do not lose any components.
6. If applicable, remove the old saw blade.

4.2 Inserting the new saw blade
1. Check that the female thread and saw blade support of the drive shaft are clean.
2. Position the new saw blade.
It makes no difference which side of the saw blade is facing inwards or outwards.
Important!
The notches in the saw blade must be positioned precisely flush on the spigots of the
drive shaft.
3. Position the fixing ring. The notches in the fixing ring must always be pointing towards
the saw (see fig. 2). These must also be positioned precisely on the spigots.
4. Screw the retaining screw in manually until hand tight.
5. Then tighten firmly using the fork wrench, as described above.
The tightening torque is 6 - 7 Nm. Caution! Do not overtighten.

5 Operation
Switching on and off (see fig. 3)
Switching on: Push the switch forwards ( I )
Switching off: Push the switch back ( 0 )
Setting the oscillating frequency (see fig. 4)
Select the oscillating frequency when the motor is running.
The optimum oscillating frequency can be selected at the s
peed gauge depending on the properties of the plaster cast.
Oscillating frequency preselection using the electronic
speed gauge.
Lowest oscillating frequency ( 1 )
Highest oscillating frequency ( 8 )

5.1 Opening plaster casts
First select a suitable saw blade.
Apply the HEBU oscillating saw with the saw blade mounted to the cast you wish to open and
press in lightly. Your guiding hand can be used as a support and for depth control, and to
prevent sudden penetration of the blade when the cast has been cut through.
As long as the saw blade is cutting through the plaster, you will be able to feel a resistance.
Once the plaster cast has been cut through, this resistance disappears. Once the breakthrough
point is tangible, lift the saw blade off lightly without removing it from the cutting groove and
move it forwards appr. 15 mm in the direction of cutting.
Then apply the blade again and proceed as described above until the next piece has been cut
through.
In this way, the plaster cast is more safely opened through a series of cuts and linear
movements along the cutting line than would be the case if executing a continuous linear cut.
After you have used the saw only a few times, you will become accustomed to guiding the saw
through the plaster cast and you will also develop an instinctive feel for the moment where no
further resistance is tangible and no further pressure should be applied to the saw blade.
If the saw blade oscillates for too long on the wadding, high-speed oscillation can bring about a
burning sensation on the skin under the wadding.
Additional remarks:
◼Because different materials are used, every plaster or plastic cast has different properties.
While working, try to determine the optimum speed for the respective material.
◼A lower speed is advantages when cutting through plastic casts. This prevents the plastic from
starting to melt due to friction heat generated during cutting.
◼Where possible, avoid cutting through plaster casts without wadding when using the HEBU
oscillating cast cutting saw.
Injuries can result if the skin has become stuck to the plaster, and so does not oscillate with
the saw blade.
Where a plaster cast close to the skin is preferred, we recommend laying a knitted or felt strip
along one side of the arm or leg and drawing a line precisely above this strip on the surface of
the plaster cast using indelible ink.
When sawing open the cast, this line can be used as guiding mark.
◼When applying a plaster cast following surgery, the position of the operation wound should be
marked on the surface of the plaster cast. This will allow a window to be cut subsequently in
the plaster for removing stitches and observation of the wound.
◼Cutting a window in the plaster also simplifies the extraction of bone nails and also facilitates
any necessary punctures or incisions.
◼ Metal rails inserted in the plaster cast should not be cut.
◼ While serving, check the retaining screw for a firm fit and if necessary tighten.
◼ If the motor is overloaded, the device is automatically switched off. The fuse (see fig. 9 on
page 24, item 110) is located on the electronic circuit board (see fig. 7 on page 24,
item 110) and can be quickly and easily exchanged after unscrewing the housing.
◼Used and blunt saw blades place excessive stress on the motor and should consequently be
continuously checked and exchanged in good time.
◼To ensure even wear of the saw blade, open the retaining screw and turn the saw blade
by 90°.

6 Cleaning and maintenance
The following measures should be performed once a week
or more often if the saw is used frequently: Clean the
cooling slots (see fig. 5) to ensure sufficient ventilation for
cooling the motor. Clean the motor compartment from the
outside with a jet of dry compressed air.
Wipe disinfection is suitable for motor housing, cable, power plug and all accessories, such as saw
blades and an open-end wrench. For this purpose, we recommend products with a pH-value within 9-10,
e.g. MediClean forte from Dr. Weigert.
It is important to ensure that the device is disconnected from the power supply and the disinfecting liquid
does not enter the interior of the motor.
