MAINTENANCE
A preventative maintenance inspection and calibration check is recommended every six months. Arrange
with your dealer or other local qualified service personnel for this servicing. In the interest of safety, do not
attempt to perform this maintenance yourself.
To clean the machine, wipe it with a cloth. Do not use thinners or solvents as these may damage the surface
or blur the instrument panels and dials. For more thorough cleaning, wipe with a cloth dampened (not
dripping wet) with a diluted neutral non-abrasive cleaning agent (e.g. “409” or “Fantastic” brands).
PREVENT LIQUID AND FOREIGN MATERIALS FROM ENTERING YOUR TRU-TRAC™; read and follow
warning on page 1.
REPAIR
Consult the factory for all repair service other than a preventative maintenance inspection and calibration
check. A loaner/rental unit is available for use while your machine is being repaired.
Users located outside the United States should consult their supplier for servicing and repair.
Repairs by unauthorized personnel or the use of replacement parts not supplied by TRU-TRAC Therapy
Products Inc. is DANGEROUS, may result in damage, and will invalidate your warranty. Read and follow
warning on page 1.

upside down. Next, slide the carton up and away from the
contents. Protective plastic wrapping and foam inserts may
now be removed as the machine is returned to right-side up.
Save the carton and protective packaging for possible future
use. Inspect machine for any visable damage which may
have occurred during transit. If damage is noted, a claim
should be filed immediately with the transportation
company; not with TRU-TRAC Therapy Products Inc.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
Before installation, traction force which was preset for ship-
ment must be released properly to prevent damage. Complete
these steps before using the Cord Release (5) feature:
A. VERIFY that your electrical supply matches the voltage

Plate (10) . Contact your supplier if the machine is not
properly rated. Read and follow warning on page 1.

OPERATING CONTROLS AND FEATURES
The Clamping Knob © is used to extend or retract
Clamping Bracket (9) when installing or removing the
machine. See “Installation” instructions for details.
2. The Braided Traction Cord @) is securely attached to
the Accessory Connector © with a special “bowline”
knot. This knot should never be untied or cut off. To
prevent wear and fraying, the machine should be
mounted facing toward the desired direction of pull so
that
the Braided Traction Cord (2) does not contact the
side of the slot from which it extends. Do not use the
machine if signs of wear or fraying are observed on
the Braided Traction Cord @) — consult the factory for
replacement. Read and follow warning on page 1.
The Accessory Connector © is opened by using the
thumb and index finger to “pinch” the two “tabs”
towards each other inside the loop at the end of the
knot. This action opens the Accessory Connector @) to
accept the metal bar or metal ring of the desired
accessory such as Catalog Number SC-31S Spreader
Bar or Catalog Number PT-110 Line-Tite Clamp with
traction cord extension. Close the Accessory Connector
so that both halves engage the desired accessory.
The Max Traction Knob © is conveniently accessible
from either side of the machine. The knob is used to
determine the maximum traction force to be applied
during the Hold phase and should be turned so that the
white indicator line corresponds to the prescribed
traction force between 10 and 100 pounds (4.5 and 45
kilograms) on the Max Traction dial.
The Max Traction dial settings in pounds are marked in
cream colored numerals next to the graduations on the
outside edge of the curved scale. Settings in kilograms
are marked in orange colored numerals next to the
graduations on the inside edge of the curved scale. The
high
traction range above 40 pounds (18 kilograms) on
the curved scale is colored yellow as a caution
reminder to the operator — see the description of High
Traction Display for details.

5. The A symbol on the Cord Release Position
of the max traction dial is intended to alert the user to
the following:

CAUTION!
To interrupt or stop treatment, turn Treatment Timer
Knob (7) to zero and wait until all tension has
released automatically before using the Cord Release
Position (5). To prevent damage, NEVER TURN MAX
TRACTION KNOB (a) TO CORD RELEASE POSITION
(5) WHILE TRACTION FORCE IS APPLIED TO
BRAIDED TRACTION CORD (2).
With no traction force applied, the length of the Braided
Traction Cord (2) may be adjusted by turning the Max
Traction Knob (4) past the 10 pound (4.5 kilogram)
setting to Cord Release Position (5). (Note: a
mechanical interlock prevents the Max Traction Knob
from being turned past the 100 Pound (45 kilogram)
setting to Cord Release Position ©)
For proper operation, the machine reguires a partial
turn of Braided Traction Cord (2) on its take-up drum.
Therefore, if a longer cord is desired (such as for
lumbar traction), we recommend the use of Catalog
Number PT-110 Line-Tite Clamp with traction cord
extension.
6. In intermittent (rhythmic) traction treatments, the
machine will repeatedly pull to and hold at the
MIN RESET < maximum force indicated by the Max Traction Knob
ER, o, ©, then release to and rest at the minimum force
indicated by the Min Reset Knob (6). The Min Reset
Knob (© is accessible from either side of the machine
and should be turned so that the white indicator line
corresponds to the desired setting between 5 and 50
pounds (2.3 and 23 kilograms).
For proper operation, the Min Reset Knob (6) should be
set approximately 10 pounds (4.5 kilograms) below the
Max Traction Knob settings. See the description of
Min/Max Error Display @) for details on insufficient
differential between Min and Max settings.

7. The Power On/Off Switch (ὢ is also a circuit breaker
which takes the place of a conventional fuse in
providing electrical current overload protection. To
resume use after the circuit breaker automatically turns
the Power On/Off Switch O to the “OFF” position,
simply move the switch back to the “ON” position.
Failure to stay in the “ON” position indicates a
condition requiring repair; immediately disconnect the
Power Supply Cord (Male End) (1) from the electrical
outlet and consult the factory for repair service. Do
NOT use the Power On/Off Switch (の to stop or
interrupt treatment — see “How to Stop or Interrupt
Treatment” instructions.
8. The Power Supply Receptacle accepts the Power
Supply Cord (Female End) 02) and provides locking
tabs which must be fully engaged to ensure proper
connection — see “Before Installation” instructions.
9. The Clamping Bracket (9) secures the machine to its
receiving mount — see “Installation” instructions.
10. The Voltage Rating & Serial Number Plate
specifies the only electrical voltage on which the
machine was constructed to operate. Do not connect
the machine to the electrical supply without first
verifying that it is the correct voltage. Contact your
supplier if the machine is not properly rated — see
“Before Installation” instructions.
