Replacing the Vein Tubing
A. Figure 3 shows how the four vein
tubing sections should be connected to
the connector block. The tube fittings are
not shown.
Note: All diagrams have been color
coded for illustrationpurposes only. The
latex veins you received with your kit are
different configuration and length. Two
are uniform diameter tubing and length.
Figure 3
Two are multi-diameter tubing and
different lengths.
Figure 4
B. Start with the longer length of multi-diameter tubing. Plug the end
of the short section into fitting #1. (See figure 4 – Red.)
Note: A small amount of lubricant or water will make it easier to slide
the tubing over the connector. . Work the tubing completely into the
channel over the back of the arm, around the third finger from the
inside, and back over the arm in the same channel. Connect the end of
the tubing into fitting #4. The couplers should be approximately in the
positions shown on the diagram. Veins may be trimmed with scissors
for a good fit; just make sure that the connector block is back in its cor-
rect location within the core and that the tubing is not kinked, pinched,
or too tightly stretched. Slight pinching in the finger area is normal and
will not obstruct blood flow.
