Ceiling flange with lifting column
1 Lifting column
2 Selector switch
for setting the optimum viewing height of the surgical microscope or for
downward movement into the working position.
As long as you hold the selector switch in the turned position, the lifting
column moves downward (3) or upward (4), depending on the switch
position. When you release the selector switch, the lifting column stops
immediately.
The switching technology causes a delay of approx. 2 seconds at the
upper and lower end positions of the lifting column. After this time
elapses, you can move the column in the opposite direction again by
activating the selector switch again.
The lifting column is used to move the microscope into position for
surgery prior to the surgical procedure.
Do not constantly move the lifting column up and down, because this will
trigger the thermal cut-out, which automatically deactivates the drive
motor. If this occurs, the lifting column cannot be moved until the motor
has cooled down.
Note: After being in operation for a maximum period of one minute, the
lifting column must be turned off for at least nine minutes to prevent the
motor from overheating.
