3.2.6 Remove Discovery A or SL Lower C-Arm Assembly (If
Necessary)
Note: It is not necessary to remove the C-arm if the hallway that the unit must go through
is at least 45" (114cm) wide (side-to-side inside dimension). Removing the C-arm
allows the unit to fit through a hallway 29" (74cm) wide.
The C-arm Carriage Assembly can be removed before taking the unit off the pallet.
Follow the procedure below to remove the C-arm:
1. Remove the 2 carriage-to-base shipping brackets (see Figure 3-8).
2. Remove the table locking bracket located on the left side of the scanner (see
Figure 3-9).
3. Move the table forward, remove the C-Arm Interface board cover, and remove
the tank cover. Then move the table back.
4. Remove the X-Ray Controller Assembly (4 Phillips screws). See “X-Ray Con-
troller Assembly” on page 5-18 for detailed removal information.
5. Remove the Tank Assembly (leave Filter Drum Assembly attached). See “Tank
Assembly” on page 5-19 for detailed removal information.
6. Disconnect the cables and Nylatrac mounting hardware, and tape Nylatrac and
cables in the bottom of the scanner so that they are secure.
