WARNING!
The VHM Arm contains a strong spring which is used to counterbalance the weight of the mounted
device.
The Arm housing should never be disassembled by non-GCX personnel.
mounted device should only be removed with the Arm in its highest vertical position, and with the Height
Locking Lever engaged. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in serious injury.
Before mounting the Arm:
1. Note that this arm has a wide range of motion both up/down and side to side. Please consider carefully the device
being mounted and the proximity of the assembly to other equipment, hospital personnel, and the patient. GCX
recommends that the hospital's risk management personnel verify the appropriateness of the application prior to
installation and use.
2. The combination of the MX600/700/800 and an 8-slot FMS exceeds the acceptable load limit for the VHM Arm,
however a 4-slot FMS can be used.
