Wall Mounting Instructions

WARNING: IT IS IMPORTANT TO SAFELY SECURE THE EQUIPMENT. UNSECURED
EQUIPMENT COULD POSSIBLY BECOME DISLODGED AND FALL, CAUSING INJURY TO
EITHER THE PATIENT OR EXAMINER.
WARNING: CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ARRANGE THE CABLES FOR THE
ACCESSORIES SUCH THAT THEY DO NOT PRESENT A TRIPPING HAZARD TO THE
EXAMINER OR A DANGER TO THE PATIENT.
WARNING: POSITION THE CLEARCHART 2 ON THE WALL SO THAT IT IS NOT
DIFFICULT TO OPERATE THE DISCONNECTION DEVICE (PLUG).
Note: Make sure the position you choose to mount your ClearChart 2 is within the
reach of a power outlet.
Direct-Throw: Your ClearChart 2 must be positioned at patient eye level directly in
front of the patient. The minimum test distance is 6 feet (1.83 meters) with a maximum
test distance of 31 feet (9.5 meters). Refer to the Direct Throw illustration in this
section.
Mirror Arrangement: A first surface mirror is a useful space-saving device to increase
the patient testing distance when the room does not permit a direct-throw arrangement.
Typically, your ClearChart 2 will be positioned higher than patient eye level so that
the examiner will not interfere with the patient's view of the ClearChart 2. Arrange the
ClearChart 2 and mirror so that the ClearChart 2 can be seen by the patient through
the mirror.
1. Find an appropriate spot on the wall that will support the ClearChart, which will hang
from the Mounting Bracket attached to the wall inserts included with the accessories.
Ensure that the refraction distance meets the requirements for either Direct-throw or
Mirror Arrangement.
2. Level the supplied Wall Mount Bracket with the metal tabs facing up and out on your
wall and mark the holes on the wall.
3. Using the supplied Drywall Fasteners, place the tip of each
fastener on the marked hole and using a hammer tap the
insert into the wall as far as the threads on the insert. Using
a phillips-head screwdriver, screw the fastener into the wall
until the surface is flush with the wall. Refer to the Drywall
Fastener picture for a sample of correct installation.
CAUTION: DO NOT OVER DRIVE THE
INSERTS INTO THE WALL.
4. Place the Wall Mount Bracket on the wall,
and screw the supplied screws into the
Drywall Fasteners.
5. Hang the ClearChart 2 by lining-up the
holes on the back of unit with the metal
tabs of the Wall Mount Bracket and hang
the unit on these tabs.
