User Manual

Before we go any further, we want to say thank you.
The TARA surgery table is worked out by dedicated team of engineers, veterinarians and
designers. Our team wants to say thank you for choosing the TARA! You’ve just invested
into cutting-edge technology, great aesthetics and ergonomics.
Tara is a most ergonomic and functional surgery
table on the market. The table is made of
electro-polished stainless steel. With its 4
actuators and wide range of accessories
the table combines the functions of several
standard surgery/examination tables.
Both V-top plates can smoothly be adjusted by
actuators. Beside that the Up/down movement
as well as the table’s tilting to the both sides are
also adjusted by actuators.
Wireless foot remote control enables safe and
comfortable working environment. Table top
warming is available as an extra.
Last but not least Tara’s unique Dental End has smooth up & down adjustment function
that no other surgery table has. This enables to offer your patients maximum comfort in
long-lasting surgeries.
