2.0 Description
The Gaymar T/Pump Heat Therapy System provides
a means of applying heat therapy by supplying
temperature-controlled water through a connector
hose to a Gaymar T/Pad.The hose is terminated in easy-
to-use Clik-Tite connectors.
The T/Pad provides the interface for delivering the
heat therapy.The unique button design allows water
to flow and provides trouble-free operation when the
pad is folded.The pads are applied to the part of the
body requiring heat therapy, and the circulating water
maintains the pad at the set point temperature.
The T/Pads can be interconnected to provide therapy to
more than one body site at a time.

hose on the T/Pump or connect ends of the T/Pump
hose together (see fig. 2). Unkink pad and hose.
Open hose clamps.
2. Fill the pump with room temperature (i.e., not hot)
distilled water to the operating level indicated on
the side of the pump:
NOTE: Using tap water will decrease the life
of the pump.
3. Insert temperature setting key. Set temperature as
prescribed by the physician. Remove key to prevent
tampering.
4. Plug T/Pump into a properly grounded outlet.
5. Turn on the power switch.The selected water tem-
perature will be reached in approximately
20 minutes.
6. If the water level drops below the operating level,
add water. Do not overfill. Overfilling can result
in reduced pump motor life.
7. Apply T/Pad to the patient. FollowT/Pad instructions.
8. For specified performance, keep the pump at or
above the level of the pad.
9. If the pump is placed below the pad(s), water will
drain into the pump when it is shut off. If the pump
has been overfilled or if multiple pads are connected,
excess water can leak out onto the floor or fill the
reservoir and cause reduced motor life.
