Swiveling the Mounted Instrument
1. To swivel the mounted instrument simply push or pull the corners of the
instrument.
2. To adjust swivel tension, remove bolt cap or existing Down Post from Swivel

using a 1/2'' [13 mm] socket driver.

desired angle.

Pivoting the Arm
1. To pivot the Arm at the Slide, simply push on the side of the Arm or
mounted instrument.
2. To adjust pivot tension, loosen or tighten the Pivot Tension Bolt using a
1/2" [13 mm] socket driver.
Cable Management
Two cable management features allow convenient placement and flow of
cables:
1. An open cavity beneath the arm (with flexible cable covers) allows
management of cables between the front and rear of the arm.
2. A “pass-through” channel at the rear of the slide allows cables to pass
behind the arm within the Channel.
Note: If cable connectors are too large to fit through the pass-through,
try placing the cables in the "pass-through" before installing the arm in
the Channel. Contact GCX for optional Channel Covers available to
further manage the flow of cables in the Channel.
Cleaning
CAUTION: GCX makes no claims regarding the efficacy of the listed chemicals or processes as a means for controlling
infection. Consult your hospital’s infection control officer or epidemiologist. To clean or sterilize mounted instruments or
accessory equipment, refer to the specific instructions delivered with those products.
1. The mounting assembly may be cleaned with most mild, non-abrasive solutions commonly used in the hospital
environment (e.g. diluted bleach, ammonia, or alcohol solutions).
2. The surface finish will be permanently damaged by strong chemicals and solvents such as acetone and
trichloroethylene.
3. Do not use steel wool or other abrasive material to clean the mounting assembly.
4. Damage caused by the use of unapproved substances or processes will not be covered by warranty. We
recommended that you test any cleaning solution on a small area of the arm that is not visible to verify compatibility.
5. Never submerge the arm, and do not allow liquids to enter the arm. Wipe any cleaning agents off of the arm
immediately, using a water-dampened cloth. Dry the arm thoroughly after cleaning.
