INT ODUCTION
The Basic Ultrasound Table features three primary positions:
horizontal, chair and Trendelenburg.
A convenient and easy-to-operate hydraulic foot pump
adjusts table height during patient transfers and scanning pro-
cedures. Trendelenburg positioning is easily performed with a
smooth-turning hand crank. Ankle straps, located at the under-
side of the leg section, prevent patient sliding during
Trendelenburg positioning. Fowler positioning is accommodat-
ed with preset stops at 0°, 15°, 35°, 55° and 80°. The table-
topʼs hourglass shape narrows to 19 inches, providing com-
fortable scanning probe positioning at and below the plane of
the tabletop. The leg section unlocks and swings down for
chair positioning, or for positioning with optional stirrups.
Patient comfort during lengthy procedures is assured by
two-inch thick table padding covered in durable and easy-to-
clean Naugahyde®. Two adjustable straps with Velcro®hook
and loop fastening are provided for increased patient stabili-
ty and comfort. Five-inch locking swivel casters provide
smooth and secure table positioning. Optional folding side
rails drop down and out of the way for unobstructed access
to the patient.
GENE AL SAFETY CONSIDE ATIONS
CAUTION: Failure to follow the instructions in this
manual could result in injury to the patient, yourself or
others.
1. Ensure that the casters are locked prior to placing the
patient on or removing the patient from the table.
2. Never place a patient on or remove a patient from the
table when it is in a Trendelenburg position.
3. The table is designed to hold 350 lbs. maximum.
Exceeding this limit could cause damage to the table which
could result in injury.
4. Never allow anyone to sit on the leg support. Its maxi-
mum load is 75 pounds. atients should always sit on the
central seat cushion prior to laying flat on the table.
5. Use the ankle straps when placing a patient in a
Trendelenburg position.
6. The patient restraining straps are intended for use only
as a means to limit patient motion during imaging for
improved image quality. They are not intended to protect
uncontrolled patients from hazards such as entrapment by
moving equipment, or falling off the table.
7. The casters provided on this table are not intended to be
used for transporting the patient outside the imaging room.
8. eriodically inspect the table for proper operation and
damage. Remove the table from service for further inspec-
tion and repair whenever any of the following conditions are
detected:
• Excessive play or looseness in any of the table motions
• Any motion binding or difficult to move
• Downward drifting of the tabletop
• Damaged or loose casters or caster wheel locks
• Any signs of damage to the table support structure such
as cracks, bent parts or looseness.
See the “Maintenance” section of this manual for further
considerations.
CONSIDÉ ATIONS GEENEE ALES DE SÉCU ITÉ
ATTENTION: Le non-respect des consignes de ce
manuel peut provoquer des blessures au patient, à
vousmême et à dʼautres.
1. Sʼassurer que les roues sont verrouillées avant de placer
le patient sur la table ou de lʼen retirer.
2. Losque la table est en position Trendelenburg, ne jamais
placer le patient ni lʼen retirer.
3. La capacité maximale de la table est de 159 kg (350 lb ).
Ne pas dépasser cette lamite afin dʼéviter dʼendommager la
table, ce qui pourrait causer des blessures.
4. Ne jamais laisser personne sʼasseoir sur le support des
jambes ou du dos. Sa charge maximale est de 34 kg (75
lb). Les patients doivent toujours sʼasseoir sur le coussin de
siège central avant de sʼétendre à plat sur la table.
5. Utiliser les courroies de retenue du patient ainsi les cour-
roies de cheville pour placer un patient en position de
Trendelenburg.
6. Les courroies de retenue du patient nʼont pour seul but
que de limiter les déplacements du patient durant la visuali-
sation en vue dʼune image de qualité supérieure. Ils nʼont
pas pour but de protéger les patients sans contrôle des
risques comme celui de se coincer contre un appareil en
mouvement, ou de tomber de la table.
7. Les roulettes donʼt cette table est pourvue ne sont pas
destinées à être utilisées pour tranporter le patient en
dehors de la salle de visualistion.

TABLE O IENTATION
The Basic Adjustable Height Ultrasound Table is oriented
as shown in Figure 1. The crank handle for Trendelenburg
positioning is located on the front of the table. Standing in
front of the table, the cushion to the left is the back, the cen-
tral cushion is the seat, and to the right is the leg support.
There are two restraining straps; one at the base of the
back cushion, the other at the seat, as shown. There are
also ankle straps at the end of the leg support.
For convenience, it is possible to reverse the head to foot
position of the table. To do so, remove the guide tube, rotate
the table 180°, and then attach the guide tube at the other end
where the hole is provided. Adjust the tube to minimize binding.
Figure 1. Table orientation.
OPE ATING INST UCTIONS
Anchoring the Table
(See Figure 2.)
Each of the four casters on the table has a brake which
simultaneously locks the wheel and swivel into position,
thereby securely anchoring the table in place.
To lock the caster, step on the locking lever. Step on the
release button to free it.
Figure 2. Anchoring the table.
Vertical Height Adjustment
(See Figure 3.)
To raise the tabletop of the Ultrasound Table, step on the
Foot Pump ever and pump it until the table reaches the
desired height. To lower the tabletop, press and hold the
Foot Pump ever all the way down until the table lowers to
the desired height.
NOTE: Even though the table may be raised or lowered
when it is in any of the three scanning positions, for patient
safety we recommend that you only make vertical adjust-
ments with the table in the normal position.
Figure 3. Vertical height adjustment.
Positions
The Basic Adjustable Height Ultrasound Table can assume
three positions: normal, Trendelenburg, and chair. To posi-
tion the table in any of these positions, perform the following
procedures
NOTE: atients should be placed on the table so their
head is on the back cushion.
• Normal Position
The Normal Position for the table is horizontal. To place the
table in this position, simply reverse the procedures for plac-
ing the table in the Trendelenburg and chair positions.
• Trendelenburg Position
(See Figure 4.)
NOTE: Before adjusting the Trendelenburg position, be
sure to place the table in the horizontal position prior to lay-
ing the patient on top of it. After placing the patient on the
table, make sure to secure the restraining straps and the
ankle straps around the patient.
The Trendelenburg position of the tabletop may be adjust-
ed up to 15°. To do so, rotate the crank handle on the front
of the table counter-clockwise. To adjust the tabletop so that
it approaches the horizontal, simply rotate the crank handle
in the opposite (clockwise) direction.
Figure 4. Trendelenburg position.
To place the Ultrasound Table in the chair position, you
need to adjust the back and leg support. To do so, refer to
the following procedures (and corresponding figures). With
the back and leg support in the vertical position, the table
will be in the chair position, as shown in Figure 5.
NOTE: If possible, when placing the table in the chair posi-
tion, pre-position the back and leg support with the patient
off the table.

Leg Support
(See Figure 6.)
The leg support has two positions: horizontal and vertical.
To lower the leg support, grasp the cushion with both hands
and pull it out far enough so that it swivels. ower the cush-
ion until it rests in the vertical position.
To return the leg support to the horizontal position, grasp
the cushion with both hands and raise it to the horizontal
position and then push on the end until it slides into the
locking position.
NOTE: Make sure that the cushion slides all the way in for
horizontal positioning of the tabletop. There is a spring
assist to help slide the leg support into its home position.
Figure 6. Leg support.
Back
(See Figure 7.)
The back may be placed in five different angled positions:
horizontal, 15°, 35°, 55°, and 80°.
NOTE: Make sure that you keep both hands on the back
cushion whenever adjusting its position. Do not let it go.
NOTE: To raise the back, place both hands underneath the
cushion and raise it so that it moves towards the vertical.
The back will automatically lock into one of the angled posi-
tions. To move the back to the vertical position, another
angled position, or lower it to the horizontal, raise the cush-
ion slightly and pull on the hand grip to release the locking
mechanism.
Figure 7. Back.
MAINTENANCE
The Basic Adjustable Height Ultrasound Table is virtually
maintenance free. Only a few simple steps are periodically
required to maintain the table in “like new” condition:
1. As required, apply a thin film of lubricating oil to the verti-
cal support shaft and guide tube.
2. As required, clean all exterior painted surfaces, cush-
ions, and restraining straps with a mild detergent solution.
3. Periodically check casters - tighten if loose or wobbly.
4. Periodically check the condition of the restraining straps.
5. Periodically check bolts on the table - tighten if loose.
6. Periodically inspect all welds.
