Precautions
To avoid injury or equipment damage:
•
Carefully observe all equipment motion as you operate the controls. Uncontrolled or
unmonitored movements can cause the gantry, table or detectors to collide with personnel or
other equipment.
•
Check for obstructions before initiating any hand controlled motions such as moving the
detectors. Be careful not to drive the detectors into fixed objects.
•
Make sure that no body parts are at risk to become pinched or trapped when the equipment is
moving.
•
Do not lean anything against the equipment. Doing so could cause it to tip or fall and may
result in injury or equipment damage.
