1.
Place the stimulating coil to be used into the coil holder on the right hand side of the stimulator as
instructed in Figure 4.4*. If using a stand held coil, place the coil in the stand.
2.
Connect the stimulating coil to be used to the Magstim Rapid² unit*.
Note: There is locating key on the coil connector, which needs to be aligned with the
corresponding receptor on the stimulator coil socket. It is then possible to rotate the outer collar of
the coil connector clockwise in order to lock the coil to the stimulator. (See Figure 4.5)

Care must be taken to attach the coil connector to the stimulator correctly (see Figure 4.6).
Failure to do so can cause damage to the connector pins and in severe cases, internal damage to
the coil and the stimulator.
