Chapter 4 Cartridges & ECD Operation
Drive-Stun Backup
Recommended Drive-Stun Areas for Maximum Eect
Pursuant to your agency's policies and guidance, when operator safety is at risk, drive the X26 ECD into the
following areas for maximum eectiveness.
• Carotid (sides of neck) (see warning below).
• Radial (forearm).
• Pelvic triangle (see warning below).
• Common peronial (Outside of thigh).
• Tibialis (calf muscle).
WARNING
Use care when applying a drive-stun to the neck or groin. These areas are
sensitive to mechanical injury (such as crushing to the trachea or testicles if
applied forcefully). However, these areas have proven highly eective targets.
These areas should only be targeted when users are defending themselves
from violent attacks. Refer to your department’s policy regarding drive-stuns
in these and other sensitive areas.
