2.4.1 Movement Controls
CAUTION : Never try to force a movement of the arm without
first releasing the brakes
WARNING : When carrying out movements with the RADiant
Therapy system, avoid colliding with objects or persons within
the room. Familiarise yourself with fixed collision hazards
within the room and always check before making a movement
that an object has not been moved into your intended path in
order to avoid damaging the equipment. To avoid injury, always
be on alert for movement into your intended path.
Figure 2-9: Brake Button
Tube Rotation and nod movements are achieved by means of releasing the
manual pinch brake. Axial rotation
and rotation about the
vertical/horizontal axis are achieved by means of pressing the brake button
located on the tube head to release the electromagnetic brakes.
Grip the tube head with left hand with the thumb located on the brake
button, release the pinch brake using the 3 lobe thumb screw with the right
hand and then press the brake button. The operator is then free to position
the unit for treatment. Once in position tighten the 3 lobe thumb screw and
release the button.
Electromechanical brake engagement and disengagement are signified by
an audible click. The correct disengagement of the pinch brake will allow
the tube head to move freely (tube head weight is then supported by the
left hand) Correct engagement of the pinch brake ensures the tube head
does not move during treatment.
2.4.2 The Support Arm
The support arm is fixed to the top of the base unit and consists of a two-
part
jointed arm and articulated ‘wrist’ joint
.
