• Face shield: This is mounted on the front of the X-ray Tube and Tube Housing Assembly by sliding it
into its mounting holes. It can be easily fitted and removed as required.
CAUTION
The face shield must be removed when using a Mag Stand.
When mounting the face shield, it must be pressed firmly into place to ensure correct
alignment. Make sure, by looking underneath the tube head, that the face shield is pushed
all the way forward, so as not to miss any chest wall tissue.

Four sets of five buttons are provided, one on each side of the X-ray tube head and one on each side
at the base of the handle. They are all used in exactly the same way.
