Using Air-Drops

5.1 Drop Selector Switches

The Drop Selector Switches (photo 12)

activate the table drops. You may select

one or up to four drops simultaneously.

Once selected, pressing the Pressure

pedal (or optional foot strips) activates

the drops. Once drops are discharged,

pressing the pedal or foot strip again immediately reactivates them.

Drop-Tension Control Knobs

The Drop-Tension Knobs are located on the left side of each drop (#15,

page 2). Turn the knob clockwise to increase the firmness of the drop—

counter clockwise to decrease.

Caution: Do not loosen Tension Knobs too far Adjusting the tension knobs out too

far can cause the cervical (and pelvic) drops to malfunction. See The “Trouble

Shooting” section on page 16 for more detail.

Headpieces

6.1 Tilting Headpiece

All Air-Flex models are equipped with a tilting headpiece. The lever for tilting is

located under the front of the headpiece (A, photo 13). It controls the angle of tilt

30° positive or negative. Pull the lever to unlock; adjust the angle; release to lock.

6.2 Dual-Drop Headpiece

The Dual-Drop headpiece contains two drops—a drop-forward motion and a

straight-down drop.

Important Note: Before changing any of

the settings described in the following

section, be sure the headpiece drop is

discharged.

Drop-Forward Motion Headpiece

To use the Drop-Forward Motion of the

headpiece, the setting lever should remain in the side channel of the setting

mechanism as shown in photo 14. Be sure that the pin locks into the receiver

behind it—otherwise, the drop will not work. For a manual drop, push up on

the black cocking handle to engage.

For Air-Cervical Drop, see section 5.1.
