For myelographic procedures, the Horizontal Stop selection located on the table
control panel should be off. This inhibits accidental motion of the cone during the
procedure.
To set the myelographic stop:
1. Press the button, move stop up or down and release it.
2. Then move the spot film device against it to make sure it is firmly seated.
NOTE: Engage the compression lock on the IDD as a precaution.
SET THE MANUAL MYELOGRAPHIC STOP ON THE FLUORO
CARRIAGE (ILLUSTRATION 2-6) BEFORE BEGINNING THE
PROCEDURE.
