2) When a normal patient load exceeds 700 lb (318 kg), moving the table
from an extreme Right Tilt may require the tabletops be level. When normal
patient load exceeds 900 lb (408 kg), moving the table from an extreme
Right Tilt may be slow or not operate.
3) When a reversed patient load exceeds 400 lb (181 kg), certain articula-
tions may be much slower than with a lighter load; for example, Reversed
Trendelenburg articulating. Additionally, when using X-ray tops with
bariatric patients, the automatic return-to-level function may not respond
until first initiating an independent articulation.
An optional foot control assembly is available for use in conjunction with the
hand control. See Figure 4-4 for identification of foot control functions.
NOTE: Battery-powered tables should be switched OFF after each procedure to
prevent unnecessary battery discharge. If a low battery condition is indicated by
the hand control BATTERY DOWN LED, refer to S
