MOBILE C-ARM
1. Select
the
LOCK
mode:
•
Systems with center pivot steering: the
LOCK
mode is both the front-locked (front-
depressed) and the rear-locked (rear-depressed) pedal positions.
•
Most older systems without center pivot steering: the
LOCK
mode is the rear-locked (rear-
depressed) pedal position only. However, some older systems have the
LOCK
mode in the
front-locked position.
Attempt to push the C-Arm and verify that the caster/wheel assemblies are locked in place; the
casters should not pivot and the wheels should not roll.
