Operating Instructions Operator Manual 150830-353
The tabletop may be articulated within the limits shown by use of the hand
control positioning buttons or the optional foot control positioning pedals, or by
the optional ORCS System. If these controls fail to function, refer to
S
ECTION
7,
T
ROUBLESHOOTING
, to see if the problem can be quickly determined and corrected.
If problem is not readily apparent, table may continue to be operated per
procedures outlined in
S
ECTION

YSTEMS
. Headrest position
and kidney bridge elevation must be adjusted manually as outlined later in this
section.
NOTE: Battery-powered tables should be switched OFF after each procedure to
prevent unnecessary battery discharge. If low battery condition is indicated by
the hand control LED, refer to S
ECTION
6 for Battery Charging Procedure.
The table will continue to function normally for at least 24 hours after the
BATTERY DOWN LED (see S
ECTION
1, D
EFINITION OF
S
YMBOLS
) first illuminates. If
the LED illuminates during a procedure, complete the procedure and recharge the
batteries at the end of the day. If the BATTERY DOWN LED is flashing,
immediately connect the ac power cord to the table base and plug into an
appropriate acreceptacle (see Figure 6-3).
NOTE: When quickly articulating the table through various repeated movements,
the synchronization of the tabletop sections can get out of alignment and the
hand control may stop functioning properly. To prevent this condition, the user
should perform a return-to-level function after
each procedure. This will keep the
variance over multiple articulations to a minimum.
