Inspection of Components
A routine inspection of the components of the MAYFIELD Infinity XR2 Base Unit should be made before
each and every procedure to assist in keeping it in good functional condition and to avoid problems the
day of surgery. This check should include the following:
1. Check to see that all the components of the base unit are available for assembly. Use the
Inspection section of this Instruction Manual for a complete list of components. ALL
components must be available and ready for assembly or the base unit should not be used.
2. Check the adjustment of the base locking handles by following these steps.
a. Attach the base unit to an OR table and lock to the side rails.
b. Raise the Crossbar to be even with the top of the OR table, locking the handles.
c. With your hands on either ends of the Crossbar, push down on the Crossbar attempting to
move it. If with minimal force, the Crossbar moves, adjustment to increase the locking power
of the Locking Handles should be made as outlined in this manual.
d. If the handles are too hard to close, adjustment to decrease the locking power of the Locking
Handles should be made as outlined in this manual.
3. With the Locking Handles unlocked and all the components attached but loose, raise and lower
the base unit, rotating all joints. All should freely rotate without any "ratcheting" noise
(starburst teeth hitting together as rotated). If this ratcheting noise is heard, loosen the joint
that is causing the noise.
4. Check the other components for function
a. Again, with the base unit Crossbar raised to be level with the top of the OR table, lock the
locking handles.
b. Lock the link arm locking knobs
c. Verify that all starbursts are fully engaged and locked
d. With these knobs locked, the total base unit should be locked into place and no movement
should be seen.
e. Exert force to each component to detect any movement. There should be no lateral or
rotational movement with the knobs of the Link Arm totally tightened. If movement is seen,
re-tighten the knobs and check again.
5. Perform visual check of all components (Start at one side of the base unit and systematically
review each component as you make your way to the other side to assure that you do not miss a
component)
a. Check all connections to be free of debris that might impair the function of that component
or the one that connects to that component.
b. Examine all components for cracks on all surfaces.
c. Check the side rails to be securely fastened to the Side Rail Brackets
d. Check that the Shock Cushion is present and in proper position on both Locking Handle
assemblies.
e. Slide the yoke from side to side on the crossbar to make certain that the surface is smooth
and free of debris or anything that would impede its movement.
