Loosen fixation screw (12) and adapt
the angle to the patient's foot (turn the
screw a few revolutions until the foot-
plate can be easily adjusted).
For short patients you can reverse the
footplate's bracket 180° (Fig. H) to adapt
the footplate to shorter calves:
• Loosen clamping lever (13) and
remove the footplate (11).
• Loosen the fixation screws (12).
• Reverse the bracket 180°.
• Screw the footplate to the bracket
and tighten the clamping lever.
Note!
When reversing the footplate, ensure
that the pins below the clamping lever
engage with the recesses in the bracket.
− To adjust the height of the support
assemblies for calf (6) and thigh (1),
loosen clamping levers (2) and (7)
(Figs. E/F).
2. Place the patient's leg on the carriage
and repeat the steps outlined under 1
above to adjust the CPM device to the
patient.
Caution!
m
Equipment damage –
Cover the leg support assemblies with
disposable tissues, when using the
ARTROMOT®-K1 after surgery. This
helps prevent discoloration.
Caution!
m
Patient hazard –
Ensure that the rotational axes of
the CPM device and of the knee joint
coincide both in the vertical and in the
horizontal plane (Fig. G).
Symbol 1:
Measurement of the
patient's femur length
from the greater
trochanter to the
lateral knee joint cavity.
Symbol 2:
Set the carriage to
the home position
(see 4.1) and adjust
it to the measured
femur length.
Symbol 3:
Adjust height of calf
and thigh support as-
semblies. Adjust
the footplate to the
height and length of
the lower leg.
4.5 Connecting the potential
equalization conductor
To prevent interference with monitoring
devices when used in treatment rooms,
the CPM device must be connected to a
potential equalization system according
to DIN 42801.
For this purpose, when using devices with
serial numbers > 35,000, connect the equal-
ization conductor to the potential equal-
ization terminal (23) of ARTROMOT®-K1
and to the potential equalization connec-
tion of the treatment room.
Observe the requirements of IEC 60601-1
for potential equalization connections.
