eMax Operating Manual
Introduction
The eMax is an electrically powered high performance instrument system that operates at 80,000 rpm. It offers variable speed, bi-directional operation, minimal noise levels, and an optional hand control. It is a high performance drill that highlights minimal vibration performance, thermal energy management, and high reliability for Neurosurgeons, Neurotologists, Skull Base Surgeons, Spinal Surgeons, and Otolaryngologists. Before using the eMax system, it is imperative that all individuals working with the system read this operating manual. The surgeon is responsible for learning the proper techniques in the use

! Summary of Warnings and Cautions Definitions Warning - Identifies conditions and actions that pose hazards to the user or patient. Caution - Identifies conditions and actions that may damage the equipment under test.
! Warnings DO NOT modify ground or power cord. DO NOT operate in an explosive flammable environment. DO NOT use without inspecting the system for damage and the hose for any cuts or abrasions. Do not use if damage is evident. DO NOT allow liquid into the console, the console could be damaged. DO NOT operate this equipment unless you have been trained by a certified Anspach representative. The surgeon is responsible for learning proper techniques in the use of this equipment, as improper use may cause serious injury to user or patient or damage to the system. DO NOT cut where you cannot see unless an image intensifier is utilized. Delicate structures in proximity to the dissection must be thoroughly protected to prevent injury. DO NOT operate this instrument without the use of safety glasses. All operating room personnel must wear eye protection.
nism while the motor is running; doing so will make the safety mechanism inoperable. DO NOT operate without irrigation. Irrigation is mandatory for proper operation. DO NOT dispose of the cutting tools without using standard protocol for sharp instruments. DO NOT use a craniotome in conjunction with the Hand Control. Excessive rotational force on the hand control may move it, thus shutting the motor down. DO NOT use cutting burrs and saw blades more than once. Cutting burrs and Saw Blades are disposable and intended for single use only. DO enjoy using these instruments. We have manufactured them to conform to rigorous quality standards to provide dependable performance.
! Cautions United States Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician or other licensed health-care provider. Use care to protect the hose when handling, cleaning, and during system use. Damage to the hose can cause leaking, rupture, or other related failures. The power source should comply with the applicable IEC, CEC, and NEC requirements. Grounding reliability can only be achieved when this equipment is connected to a receptacle marked “HOSPITAL GRADE”
DO NOT bend the attachments or attempt to use attachment as a lever. Firm control of the instrument must be maintained at all times.
Continuous extreme cutting at near stalling conditions will quickly overheat the motor.
DO NOT force the cutting burrs while performing operation. Use a gentle tapping motion or side-to-side motion and let the instrument do the cutting. Forceful side loading of cutting burrs may cause fracture of dissecting tool, which may cause injury.
The Micro Dissection Attachment is to be used only for delicate bone dissection applications. Excessive force or side loads during use can cause rapid temperature increase at the distal end of the attachment. Always use copious irrigation with this attachment.
DO NOT operate the motor without an attachment and a cutting burr. Confirm the attachment is the proper size for the cutting burr and that it is secure. Cutting burrs must be adequately retained within the motor to prevent distal migration, which may cause injury.
The Anspach System Console automatically recognizes the installation of the microSaw attachments onto the handpiece and adjusts the speed to the appropriate level. The maximum allowable speeds are as follows:
DO NOT attempt to engage the safety mecha2

Operation of the microSaws at higher speed levels will cause damage to the attachments. When cleaning, do not immerse motor or attachments except as indicated in Anspach cleaning instructions, do not insert brush into motor housing, and do not use saline solution. Do not allow liquid to enter eMax console, foot pedal, or irrigation pump (console with optional irrigation).

Direction can only be changed when the motor is not running. A series of eight beeps will be heard when the motor starts to rotate in reverse.
Operation Firm control of the eMax must be maintained at all times. Never force the cutting burr. Let the instrument do the cutting. Only Anspach microMax/eMax cutting burrs should be used with the eMax. Always use continuous irrigation to prevent heat build-up. Never use the attachments as a retractor to bend or pry. Always wear safety glasses.
Control of Motor Speed and Direction 1. Upon start-up, the eMax motor is set at full speed. The display reads 80,000 ± 10% RPM. To increase or decrease the speed of the motor, depress the blue arrows located on the face panel. Speed increases and decreases in 10,000-RPM increments.
3. Rotational direction can also be changed by depressing the toggle switch located on the top left of the foot control for one second; the console will beep once to let the user know the motor has switched direction. To switch back to forward mode, quickly depress the toggle switch for one second. It will instantly switch back into the forward mode, and one beep will sound. When the direction changes the LED on the face panel located to the left of the “F” will indicate the forward direction. The LED located to the left of the “R” will indicate reverse direction.

Cleaning and Maintenance Motor DO NOT IMMERSE! Prior to sterilization, wipe with a clean, waterdampened cloth and mild detergent or isopropyl alcohol. Silicone Spray or Instrument Milk may be added to lubricate the motor handpiece knurled knob. Silicone spray may be used on the hose to prolong its flexibility and to facilitate foreign particle removal. The motor handpiece should be tested by running it with an attachment and cutting burr at least every three months for one minute to determine the temperature. If the distal tip and main body of the handpiece are uncomfortably hot to the touch (approximately 43°C [110°F]), return the instrument to Anspach for servicing. Do not insert brush into motor housing. Do not use saline solution for cleaning.
Console and Foot Pedal DO NOT STERILIZE!
2. Immerse attachment in a clean container filled with an adequate amount of isopropyl alcohol to fully cover the attachment. 3. Agitate for 30 seconds. 4.

Sterilization Motor and Attachments Metal devices, tools and equipment are constructed of materials unaffected by normal environmental conditions of current standard sterilization means, when proper operational techniques are employed. Effectiveness of sterilization equipment or sterilization processes are directly dependent upon numerous factors beyond the Company’s control including among other things; sterilization means, processes and wrapping techniques employed, brand, model and condition of sterilization equipment, care and maintenance techniques employed and operator knowledge and experience. Before sterilizing: Place attached protective cap over electrical connector on eMax motor prior to sterilization. Ensure sterilization equipment is in proper working order as specified by the manufacturer. Assure equipment manufacturer’s instructions are properly employed by trained and qualified personnel; Assure actual cycle employed has been properly validated for the device(s)/load configuration being processed
16
and appropriate sterilization indicator devices are included for each process and cycle. The Company cannot anticipate all possible equipment, processes and/or conditions that may be encountered.
