The proper method to install the 1.5 mm is as follows:
1. Grasp the distance gauge by the support leg.
2. Insert the distance gauge into the end of the slider while rocking it back
and forth once or twice. This will ensure that it is centered onto the slider
when installed.
To remove the 1.5 mm distance gauge, grasp the support leg and gently rock it back
and forth while pulling it out from the slider.
Caution
THE 1.5 MM DISTANCE GAUGES CONTAIN A BUILT-IN LENS AS PART
OF THE ASSEMBLY. THEY ARE THE ONLY DISTANCE GAUGES THAT
SHOULD BE USED WHEN THE DELIVERY SYSTEM SLIDER IS
ADJUSTED FOR A 1.5 MM SPOT SIZE. USE OF ANY OTHER DISTANCE
GAUGE WILL RESULT IN AN INCORRECT SPOT SIZE AND THE
FLUENCE DELIVERED TO THE TREATMENT AREA WILL BE
INCORRECT.
