LOWERING THE TABLETOP
1. It is recommended that the tabletop be centered before lowering
it (refer to Tabletop Float Motion operation in preceding para-
graph).
2. Press the DOWN foot pedal (see Figure 5) to lower the tabletop
to the desired height.
3. Transfer patient onto tabletop.
4. Ensure patient is positioned with his or her hands situated along
the side of their body, or with the hands grasping the patient
handles (see Figure 3). Be sure patient’s hands remain above
the tabletop.
Note: As it is lowered, the speed at which the
tabletop travels will gradually be reduced until
the tabletop reaches the lowest point of travel for
optimal patient comfort.
