leave enough room for the size of the pole .
2 . Place Pump around pole and tighten screw until the clamp is
secured to the pole .
Never mount the Pump such that the IV infusion stand
A
becomes top heavy or unstable.
Ensure the pole clamp is folded away and stored
within the recessed area at the rear of the Pump
before connecting to a Docking Station/Workstation*
or when not in use.

the equipment rail .
