Closed System Transfer Device (CSTD) for a Toomey Syringe

At our facility, we only have the Tevadaptor/onguard closed system transfer device (CSTD). However, we are having difficulties using this CSTD to transfer chemo agents (eg. Mitomycin) to the toomey syringe for administration.

How are other organizations transferring to toomey syringes using a CSTD?
