Guide the patient to the unit so that they are facing the
chin rest.
Press either of the height adjusting keys to adjust the
height of the vertical carriage until the chin rest is
slightly higher than the patient’s chin. By positioning
the chin rest slightly higher than the patient’s chin the
patient will be encouraged to stretch up to reach the
chin rest. This will help to stretch and straighten the
patient’s cervical vertebrae.
