Warnings & Safety Rules
WARNING!: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED!
Danger!: Possible explosion hazard if used in the presence of flammable
anaesthetics.
Only permit trained personnel to use this equipment.
Do not connect the equipment to the mains supply until all the instructions have
been studied.
Always check that the voltage stated on the identification plate corresponds with the
electrical supply.
Carefully inspect all equipment and accessories before use. Do not operate the
equipment if it appears damaged or incorrectly installed.
Always test the equipment prior to use, and check for malfunction or rapid
temperature rise. Do not use suspect or damaged equipment.
Always use eye protection when cutting to prevent injury from flying debris.
Always ensure that no loose articles can be caught by the moving parts of the
equipment.
Always disconnect the equipment from the electrical supply when cleaning,
changing accessories or when not in use.
Always allow the equipment to stop before removing from the cutting site.

Product Description
The De Soutter Medical CC5A consists of four items:
• CC5 Saw: The De Soutter Medical model CC5 is a low voltage two speed saw
designed for the safe removal of surgical casts.
• PS5 Power Supply: The PS5 power supply provides the CC5 saw with low
voltage electricity. It is located under the CCS debris drum.
• CCS Extractor: The CCS extractor provides a powerful suction at the cutting
site, removing fumes, dust and debris generated in the cast cutting process.
These particles are ducted from the cutting site through the extraction hose and
are contained in the disposable bag in the debris drum.
• Extraction Hose Kit: The hose kit provides the hose and other accessories
required for assembly of the CCS5 system.

System Assembly
Mains Supply Lead
If an unsuitable plug is fitted to the mains lead, remove and destroy this plug before
disposal.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue - Neutral
Brown - Live
Green/Yellow - Earth
Connect the wires in the mains lead to a suitable plug as follows:
Blue wire to the terminal marked either letter N or coloured blue or black.
Brown wire to the terminal marked either letter L or coloured brown or red.
Green/Yellow wire to the terminal marked either letter E or coloured green.
Ensure that the correct fuse is fitted to protect the equipment: refer to the Technical
Description for details of which fuse is required.
Extractor and Power Supply
The system may be supplied in two different formats:
1. PS5 power supply assembled to CCS extractor chassis.
• Disconnect the debris drum from the chassis and insert the CC5 saw power
cable into the PS5 power supply socket. Insert the cable into the cable restraint
and latching clip. Replace the debris drum and re-connect the power supply plug
into the socket on the powerhead.
2. PS5 power supply not assembled to CCS extractor chassis.
• Disconnect the debris drum from the chassis, and pass the power supply cable
through the rear box tray aperture. Secure the tray with the nuts and bolts
provided. Locate the power supply by sliding it backwards on the tray retainers,
and secure it with the small self tapping screw.
Saw & Hose:
• Attach the metal connector of the extraction hose assembly into the rear of the
CC5 saw and the other end on to the vacuum inlet spigot on the debris drum.
• Secure the CC5 power cable to the hose with the clips provided.
Handle:
• Assemble the handle to the chassis and secure with the nuts and bolts provided.
Refer to the diagram on page 7 of this manual.
Saw:
• Attach the blade of choice to the tool output shaft, secure the clamp screw and
tighten with the hexagon key provided.
Always check the condition of the blade before use. The blade may be repositioned
up to five times, therefore always presenting an unused section.

System Controls
Main On/Off Switch:
Located at the front of the extractor powerhead handle.
Extractor Controls:
Automatic:
Set the automatic/manual switch to automatic. The extractor will now operate when
the tool is switched on, and purge itself for a few seconds after the tool is switched
off.
Manual:
Set the automatic/manual switch to manual. The extractor may now be operated
independently from the saw.
HI/ LO Extractor Suction:
Select the desired suction level with the HI/ LO suction control. LO suction is
normally adequate for general cast cutting, and is much quieter.
Power Supply Controls:
The power supply is operated by the illuminated green switch at the rear.
Saw Controls:
Operate the saw using the rear mounted On/Off switch (this switch remotely controls
the extractor when set in Automatic mode).
Select the desired saw speed by setting the switch on the rear of the saw to either
(low) or
(high).
The saw cannot be operated without the extractor.

Operation
System Operation
Set the controls for the extractor suction and saw speed to the desired settings.
Switch the PS5 power supply ON. This switch may be left ON permanently.
Switch the extractor mains switch ON. In Automatic mode, the system will now be
controlled from the On/Off switch on the saw.
Cutting Technique
Before use, the operator should handle the saw and determine the most convenient grip
position.
Do not exert excessive working pressure - allow the blade to cut at it’s own rate.
Excessive pressure will overload the motor, without increasing cutting efficiency, and
will cause the overload to trip. If this occurs reset the overload by pushing the overload
button on the power supply.
Caution: Excessive cutting pressure will also cause the blade to overheat which may
result in injury to the patient. Likewise badly worn blades will generate excessive heat
therefore the blades should be inspected and replaced regularly. A new or
repositioned blade will improve cutting efficiency. Reduce vibration and temperature of
the blade when cutting.
Make the first cut both downwards and
slightly sideways, at approximately 30
degrees, in order to keep one side of the
blade out of contact with the cast. This will
allow the operator a greater sense of feel
when the blade breaks through.
After the first cut, all cuts should be made
straight down into the cast. The cutter
should be lifted slightly and moved
sideways; the second cut can then be
taken straight down, the operator feeling
the break through quite easily.
Cutting can then proceed in a series of
downward cuts, lifting and moving
sideways progressively. The blade may
touch soft mobile tissue momentarily
without harm under a light pressure,
however it should never be permitted to
be in contact with the skin for any length
of time.

Cleaning and Maintenance
The system should be checked visually after each use for each of the following:
• Condition of the electrical cables, for wear or abrasion.
• Excessive build up of plaster dust in the hood.
• The blade for wear and the blade retainer for tightness.
• The system as a whole for damage.
Never use any equipment you suspect to be damaged.
Periodically check the Extractor filters and bag for excessive contamination.
Periodic technical maintenance is not required.
Cleaning
Use suitable disinfecting and cleaning materials as per local decontamination
guide lines.
Extractor Bag Replacement and Filter Cleaning
For maximum efficiency replace the
paper dust bag as soon as the
suction performance decreases.
Powerhead
To gain access to the dust bag,
release the two powerhead latches
and remove the powerhead. Lift out
the two permanent filters, and remove
the dust bag by sliding the cardboard
collar from the inlet spigot. Dust bag
replacement is carried out in the
reverse sequence.

Filters
If after prolonged use the permanent
filters
appear
excessively
contaminated, rinse them thoroughly
in luke warm water and allow them to
dry naturally before use.

Fault Finding
Unit will not start:
Check the condition of the fuses and the overload protectors, located:
• On the power supply - 2 fuses and 1 overload protector.
• On the extractor powerhead handle.
To release the built in fuses, depress and twist the fuseholder. Withdraw the fuse in
its holder, and inspect and replace as necessary.
Reset the overload by pushing the overload button on the power supply.
Unit stops in use:
Wait five minutes and see if the thermal overloads reset. These thermal overloads
are located in the extractor and in the power supply, and operate automatically.
Tool cuts slowly:
Check the condition of the blade. Adjust and replace the blade as required.
Extractor is noisy and suction is poor:
Check the paper debris bag and the filters. Change the bag or clean the filters as
required.
If any problem persists then consult De Soutter Medical Ltd.
