3.3. Moving the C-Arm and Workstation
3.3.1. Overview
Familiarize yourself with the location and mechanical operation of all controls prior to moving the system.
Neglecting the precautions during moving could cause the system to lose control and may
cause injury to the operator and other persons.
Before transporting the system, please make sure the 4 brake handles: the C-Arm orbital
rotation brake, the lateral rotation brake, the Wig-Wag brake, and the horizontal Cross-Arm
brake are locked. Otherwise, equipment damage or personal injury may result.
If any brakes are not firmly locked, don’t transport the system and contact GE Healthcare
Service Engineer.
Cords and cables connected to the Workstation and C-Arm can become trip and/or snag
hazards in the work area. Personnel working around the system should be aware of all
cords and cables whenever they move around the system or the system is moved.
Always:
• Check and make sure there are no obstacles on the way.
• Move the system slowly.
