Assembling The Headlight System - Cuda Fiberoptics LIT051CUDA Mode D'emploi Et Manuel D'entretien

3. ASSEMBLING THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM

Before continuing remove the protective caps.
To attach the fiber optic cable, insert the instrument end into the headlamp module until
it snaps in place (Figure 1). A bifurcated cable fits into the cable clips on both sides and
rear of the headband.
To remove the cable, grasp the body of the module in one hand and the metal part of the
cable in the other and pull up. Do not pull the cable by its legs.
Remember, the fiber optic cable is made of glass fibers. When adjusting the cable on the
headband, do not bend the cable at an angle of more than 60 degrees.
Next, place the headband on your head; make size adjustments turning the knob on the
rear of the headband until it feels comfortable. For more comfort, adjust the cross band.
On the sweatband the adjustments are made by the rear and the cross member. Open the
sweatband at the rear and adjust until comfort is reached; press unit together with the
Velcro etched.
Once the headlamp module and cable are connected, the unit is ready for use. Adjustment
to the module can be made by means of the joystick. The joystick is removable for
autoclaving.
The system comes with gown clips to relieve the weight of the cable from the headband.
One gown clip is attached below the shoulder; the other is used to connect the cable to the
surgeon's gown. This eliminates the risk of tripping or dropping the illuminator end.
CAUTION
: The metal portion of the fiber optic cable at the lightsource gets hot
during operation. Allow cooling for a minimum of 5 minutes outside the illuminator
before touching.
