Tube Head Replacement

When a replacement Tube Head is sent to a site in the field for replacement, it
is not ready for immediate installation into the scanner. Some parts from the
old Tube Head must be transferred to the new Tube Head (see list below and
figure 5-1).
These parts are: 1) tilt bar
2) lead ring (around filter area)
3) lead wrap
4) fan bracket
5) nuts, bolts and washers
6) collimator positioning hardware
7) the collimator assembly.
Verify that all necessary parts have been transferred to the new Tube Head
before shipping the defective. LUNAR has received defectives with the lead
ring, for example, still in them.
