Drive Motor
Select the desired pole position and secure the flexible mounting arm to the pole.
Note: To reduce the potential for an air embolism, the drive motor is typically
positioned so that the pump will be near and just below the outlet of the reservoir
from which the blood is being pumped.
Flexible Mounting Arm
Select the desired pole position and secure the flexible mounting arm to the pole.
Set the mounting arm to the desired position:
•
Turn the tension control knob counterclockwise to
loosen the joints of the mount arm. Manually support the
flexible arm when adjusting the tension control knob. Do
not loosen the knob beyond the stop.
•
Position the arm as desired and tighten the tension
control knob.
Screw the drive motor onto the threaded stud. Make sure the drive motor is fully
installed on the threaded stud. Make sure the drive motor is securely mounted on the
mounting arm.
Note: Always manually support the flexible arm when adjusting the tension control
knob.
Centrifugal Motor Mount Arm
To mount the drive motor, secure the bracket on a pole or
other vertical support and secure the drive motor to the
bracket by adding the washer and tightening the bracket
knob.
Insert the drive motor cable into the receptacle on the centrifugal drive unit. Remove
the safety cover from the drive motor.
CAUTION: Do not sterilize the centrifugal drive motor as sterilization may
damage the motor.
