Orbital Motion
Circuit/Mechanical Descriptions
The C-Arm can rotate in its cradle through an arc of 115 degrees. The back of the C weldment has a scale that aids in
positioning the C as it rotates. Once the position of the C is satisfactory, set either brake handle to the lock icon on the cradle to
keep the C from moving.

Orbital Movement and Brake
The following illustration is an exploded view of the C-Arm’s Orbital Brake. Rotating either brake handle moves the Brake Cam
against the Brake Pivot, which in turn presses the Brake Arm toward the C-Arm. The Brake Pad attached to the Brake Arm
presses against the back of the C-Arm, preventing orbital movement of the C.
