Tube Unit Rotation
Because the tube assembly is
counterbalanced,
no active lock is required. And little ef-
fort is needed to override friction and rotate the tube.
5. Use the collimator handles to position the tube to the desired angle.
D
You may rotate the tube in two directions:
a.
clockwise and counterclo180 degrees (detents at every 90 de-
grees), or
b.
