UNCRATING PROCEDURE
Open the top of the lighthead box and remove the
packing material, remove the sterilizable positioning
handle and remove lighthead from the crate.
NOTE
Details may vary depending upon model
and support structure fabrication.
ALL fixtures use METRIC fasteners.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Specific seismic information is available for applica-
tions. Refer to seismic drawings.The lighting fixture
should be installed in the following sequence:
1. Mounting Plate
2. Radial Arm Assembly and Ceiling Cover
3. Vertical Support Tubes/ Balance Mechanisms
4. Lightheads
5. Wall Control
1. Mounting Plate
a. Check the strength and stability of the mount-
ing structure. It should be fabricated of steel and
welded or bolted to the structural ceiling. It should
be braced in a manner that will allow no twisting
or lateral motion. In standard installations a steel
stiffener plate should be used to connect the 3/4"
diameter "all-thread" support rods and to provide
an attachment base for the angle-iron sway bracing.
The 3/4" diameter support rods should be mounted
in a 9-1/2" square pattern and should extend 2-1/4"
below the finished ceiling. See Mounting Structure
details in the back of this booklet.
b. Install the SKYTRON mounting plate on the
threaded rods between jam nuts. The plate should
normally be located 1-3/8" off the finished ceiling
(measured from the bottom of the plate) and ac-
curately leveled, within 0.1 degree, using a digital
level. Tighten the jam nuts securely. See figure
2.

LIGHTHEADS
•Use extreme caution when removing
the contents from the crates to pre-
vent damage to the lights. Leave the
lightheads in their crates until ready to
install.
•Ifthelightheadmustbesetdownafter
it is removed from the crate, always lay
it on the foam shipping block. Do not
lay it on the front face.
UNCRATING
•Shouldanydamagetothexturebe
noted while uncrating, further unpacking
should be stopped and the container
with all the wrappings held for inspection.
The transportation company should be
notified immediately so an inspector
can be sent. Consult the Damaged
Shipment Claim Procedure sheet for
further details.
•Personnel uncrating SKYTRON sur-
gical lights should be aware that they
are delicate medical equipment and
special care in handling should prevail
throughout installation.
RADIAL ARM ASSEMBLY
•Whentheradialarmassemblyisre-
moved from the crate and set on the
floor prior to mounting it, be sure the
mounting flange is toward the floor. If
the arm assembly is set on the floor
upside down the hub cover may be
damaged. See figure 1.
