3.9 Rotation Safety Lock Switch
The rotation safety lock switch (with the lighted indicator) locks out the lateral tilt
function. This feature is designed to prevent unintended lateral tilt of the table top. The
rotation safety lock switch should be turned off only when a 180-degree patient rotation
is to be performed. If the rotation safety lock switch is not illuminated, press the rocker
switch to the ON position.
3.10 180° Rotation Lock Indicator
The 180° rotation lock indicator light, when lit, indicates the 180-degree rotation lock is
engaged and the table cannot be rotated 180 degrees. If the 180-degree rotation lock
indicator is not on, rotate the rotation lock lever clockwise until the light is illuminated.
NOTE: If a 180 degree patient rotation is to be performed, the rotation lock lever should
be rotated counterclockwise approximately one half rotation past the point that the
rotation lock indicator light goes out. Rotating the lock lever to this point lessens the
drag of the friction control, thereby allowing the table tops to rotate more freely during
the patient rotation. If even less friction is desired, the lock lever may be rotated further,
counterclockwise, as necessary.
After the patient rotation is complete, rotate the rotation lock lever clockwise until the
rotation lock indicator light is illuminated.
When the rotation lock indicator light is not illuminated, the table top is
UNLOCKED regardless of how much the lock lever has been rotated clockwise or
counterclockwise. Always rotate the lock lever until the rotation lock Indicator
light is illuminated after a 180° rotation. If increased friction lock on the rotation
is required, rotate handle in a clockwise direction until desired friction is met.
All three lights must be illuminated before a patient is transferred to the table. If
all three lights are not illuminated, do not transfer the patient until they are
illuminated.
