OSCIMED PSV
1 Technical description
1.1 The electrical power supply
Supplied from a socket by a cable which passes through a transformer reducing voltage
to 24 VDC, it is optimal for the security. The device complied with the latest version of
medical standards EN 60601.
1.2 The electro-mechanical drive
The oscillating movement of the blade is made by a DC motor and a mechanical device,
which is made from high quality materials, with low wear and without maintenance. The
motor and the high lifespan sensor switch are driven by a microprocessor card.
The electromechanical device is mount trough anti-noise rubbers on the body of the
cutter to avoid vibrations in the hand and noise. The switch, situated closed to the user’s
hand, is a contactless long life time sensor.
1.3 The cutting blades
The blades have a synthetic coupling center. A special lock nut makes it easy to install or
change the blade without any tool.

2 Use - Safety –Maintenance
2.1 Start and stop
Plug into electric socket.
Press the red sensor switch to start the saw;
press a second time to stop it.
2.2 Vacuum nozzle change
First disconnect the power supply.
Then remove the vacuum nozzle to reach the blade, by pushing the supple parts on
both sides in order to release the nozzle and slide it up.
Set the nozzle back by inserting it in the guide and push down to the bottom till the
automatic lock.
2.3 Saw blade change
First disconnect the power supply.
Remove the vacuum nozzle to reach the
blade.
Turn the blue blade lock nut (1) a quarter-
turn and pull it out. To remove the blade,
incline it a little and pull out.
Set the new blade (2) on notched spindle,
return the lock nut and turn back a quarter-
turn on its internal locking notch (1).

2.4 Vacuum hose insertion
Place the screws of the hose coupling/connection in a
vertical position, as shown on the photo, and insert on
the end-piece/housing saw.
Turn a quarter in order to get
the screws „horizontal“ and
lock the connecting part.
Proceed the opposite way to remove the hose.
2.5 Field of use
In a general way, every use other than cutting bandages and casts is forbidden.
In the medical field, this saw is not authorized for use where the saw blade could be in
direct contact with the patient or for surgery.
2.6 Protection against mechanical overload
To avoid overloads in case of fall and for the patient security, the saw stops
automatically in case of brutal overload on the saw blade. In this case, disconnect
the power supply, wait 2 minutes and reconnect the device to restart the saw.

Remark concerning the immunity to the electro-static discharges:
Trials according to the EN 61000-4-2 norm have shown a non-destructive and very short
lasting stop of the saw in case of a more than 4000 volts electric shock.
2.8 Maintenance - Cleaning
Disconnect the power supply before any maintenance or cleaning operation.
Check that no electric cable is damaged, that the oscillating shaft and the switch are not
blocked in their movements by an accumulation of sawing wastes.
The only maintenance this saw needs is that it has to be kept clean. Wipe clean with a
damp rag. Do neither immerse the saw in water nor every other liquid, nor clean it with a
shower.
