C Removal
The "C" is the C-shaped weldment that supports the X-ray tube and Collimator on one end and the Image Intensifier and CCD
camera on the other end. Removing the C is a simple task but some heavy lifting is involved. Follow these steps:
WARNING: Failure to install the C-Arm Safety Bolt may allow the gas spring to rotate the L-Arm
very quickly and very forcefully when you remove the C from the end of the L-Arm. This
could result in serious injury or equipment damage.
1. Turn off power to the Workstation and remove its power plug from the AC outlet.
2. Follow the procedure provided in this chapter under Electrical and Electronic Assemblies to remove the Image Intensifier
from the C. THIS INCLUDES INSTALLING THE C-ARM SAFETY BOLT.
3 Remove the four hex-keyed bolts that secure the Image Intensifier mounting plate to the C.
4. Carefully separate the Image Intensifier mounting plate from the C.
CAUTION: Step 5 requires some careful heavy lifting. Get somebody to help you.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the High Voltage and Control Cable assembly in the following step.
5. Loosen the Orbital brake.
6. Rotate the Image Intensifier end of the C through the Flip Flop assembly.
7. Carefully lift the C out of the Flip Flop assembly and set it aside.
