1.1 Installation of Radiation Shield
Warning:
Use gloves and eye protection when handling the X-ray Shield.
Warning:
Do not handle or position the Radiation Shield alone. Two people are
required to handle and position the tempered glass shield to minimize stress
to the shield.
Caution:
The X-Ray Shield is made of tempered glass and is fragile. Use extreme care when
handling and installing the shield. When installing, the shield must be precisely
positioned and must not be flexed in any direction.
Caution:
Inspect the X-ray Shield before and after installation. Small imperfections embedded
in the glass are acceptable. Do not install the shield if cracks or chips are visible.
Caution:
Use care when cleaning the X-ray Shield to avoid excessive force and movement of
the shield.
