3-4. 180 Degree Table Top Rotation.
NOTE
Normal table top position is with the
head (and back) section over the power
cord end of the base.
a. The table top can be horizontally rotated 180°
without having to rotate the entire table. To rotate
the top, turn the TOP ROTATION LOCK HANDLE
counterclockwise (figure 3-15), grasp the table by
the head end and rotate the top 180° counterclock-
wise. Lock the top in position by tightening the TOP
ROTATION LOCK HANDLE clockwise.
WARNING
Always lock the table top in position
after rotation. DO NOT rotate the top
with an unevenly distributed patient
weight load as instability may result.
j. Pendant Control Storage. When the Pen-
dant Control is not in use, it should be stored on a
convenient side or end rail. A bracket is located
under the table top for storage of the Pendant
Control when the table is not in use and during
cleaning. See figure 3-12.

3-3. Head Section
a. A quick release positioning bar located under
and to the front of the head section (figure 3-13) is
used to raise or lower the head section. Pull the
release bar toward the head end to allow the
section to pivot up or down. Positioning from 60°
above horizontal to 90° below horizontal in 15°
increments is available. Release the bar to lock the
head section in position.
Figure 3-13. Head Section Adjustment
b. By loosening two locking knobs beneath the
back section, an additional 5" of longitudinal adjust-
ment can be achieved. If desired, the head section
may be removed by loosening the locking knobs and
pulling it straight out of the back section. 6001 Series
Tables have the capability of attaching the head
section to the leg section
for use as a foot extension
ONLY. Do Not reverse the patient on the table
without first consulting with SKYTRON. Two locking
knobs are located on the inside of the leg section for
securing the head section. See figure 3-14.
