The Hold Timer Knob
is used to determine either
the static traction mode, or the number of seconds to
hold at the force indicated by the Max Traction
Knob
during each cycle of the intermittent traction mode.
During the hold phase of operation, the machine will
automatically compensate
for the normal
loss of
tension caused by harness stretch and patient
movement.
This "top-up" feature maintains the
prescribed
maximum
traction force indicated by the
Max Traction
Knob
©
(Note: Although the Hold Timer
setting may
be changed
at will, the new setting will not
be recognized until the next cycle).
The Treatment Timer Knob (7)
is used to start the
treatment, determine
its length
in minutes, and to either
stop or interrupt. Turn the knob so that its white
indicator line corresponds to the desired
length of
treatment. The treatment timer is a mechanical clock
that will "count down" to show the treatment time
remaining
plus automatically stop the treatment and
ring a bell to signal the operator at zero, The treatment
timer is the control used to start the treatment and the
only one used by the operator to stop or interrupt
treatment. After treatment timer reaches zero, wait
until all tension has released automatically before
using Cord Release Position (5)
or removing harness
from patient.
The Rest Timer Knob
is used to determine the
number of seconds to rest at the force indicated by the
Min Reset Knob (6)
during each cycle of the
intermittent traction mode. (Note: Although
the rest
timer setting may
be changed
at will, the new setting
will not be recognized
until the next cycle.)
The Caution Conditions Section
of the instrument
panel features four graphic displays which will light
(provided power is connected
and switched
"ON") only
upon the occurance of a condition
requiring the
operator's attention.
