INTRODUCTION 
Thank you for purchasing the MITAKA Point Setter (holding system for surgical 
instruments). 
MITAKA KOHKI Co., Ltd. has been producing many products in the 
area of astronomical instruments, industrial measuring instruments, and medical instruments 
since 1966. The pride of true workmanship goes into each component of all our products. 
We believe that you will fully recognize the high quality of our products with the 
use of the Point Setter. 
MITAKA KOHKI originally created the Point Setter as a holder 
arm to retain a brain spatula. Since its original creation, there have been a number of 
improvements made to the Point Setter, including its expanded use as a holder for various 
other surgical instruments. It is especially valuable for the holding of an endoscope, which 
has lately attracted considerable attention in the endoscopy field.    Other uses for the Point 
Setter include the holding of a retractor, a respirator tube, a CCD camera, and a magnetic 
stimulation coil. 
Note: In the USA, the Point Setter is FDA 510k approved only for use in holding an 
endoscope. 
MITAKA KOHKI asks its USA customers to contact Mitaka USA at 
(888) 244-6173 regarding other possible FDA approved uses for the Point Setter. 
Furthermore, if you have any questions regarding its intended use, please contact us; we are 
eager to help our customers in any way that we can.
