Adjustable
head support
Temple pads
for children
Then turn the adjusting knob to adjust the head support to
suit the size of the patient's head.
• You can use temple pads if you take exposures of
children or patients with a small head. Slide the
temple pads onto the adjustable head support as
shown. Ensure that you slide the temple pads as far
up as they will go.
NOTE
Use temple pads on both sides (not on one side only).
• You can use fastening straps for additional head
support if needed. Attach one strap in front of the
forehead and two at the back of the head as shown.
NOTE
Be careful when you handle the straps. Do not let the
straps hit the patient in the eye or face.
NOTE
Do not overstretch the straps. The straps lose their
elasticity if you pull them more than 50 mm (2 in.).
Straps with a free length (i.e. when they are not
stretched) of over 255 mm (10 in.) do not support the
patient's head firmly.
