Mounting the Hot Dog Controller to an IV Pole
To mount the Hot Dog Controller to an IV pole, place the Controller IV pole Clamp around the
IV pole and turn the clamp handle clockwise until securely tightened (
). To remove the
Controller from the IV pole, turn the clamp handle counterclockwise until the unit releases.
Caution
To prevent the IV pole from tipping, the Controller must be attached at a height that provides
stability. It is recommended to use an IV pole with a minimum wheelbase radius of 35.6 cm (14
in) and to mount the Controller no higher than 112 cm (44 in) from the floor. Failure to properly
mount the Controller may result in IV pole tipping, catheter site trauma and patient injury.
