3.2 Motor Reattachment
Your device contains six motors attached to six struts,
each with a motor clip. Each motor is numbered 1 to 6
and must be attached ONLY to the corresponding strut.
If a motor clip comes off, the motor may become dis-
lodged and come out of the strut mounting bracket
(see Figure 9).
If this happens, please contact your physician as soon
as possible. Your physician may tell you to come into
the office or he/she may ask you to reattach the motor
yourself.
The motor can be reattached by placing the motor back
in the strut mounting bracket and installing the clip (or a
new clip) around the motor and to the mounting bracket
(see Figures 10 and 11).
Please be sure that both sides of the motor clip
are firmly seated in the motor mounting bracket.
After the clip is attached, gently pull the motor to
ensure it cannot be displaced.
After your strut motor has been reattached, your device
should continue to operate normally. If you have any con-
cerns, do not hesitate to contact your physician.
■ Note:
If more than one motor has become displaced, do not
attempt to reattach them yourself. You should contact
your physician as soon as possible. The physician or
authorized health care professional should reattach the
motors to ensure that they are all placed in the correct
struts.
In case of Control Box detachment, please contact
your physician as soon as possible.
