Figure 2-18.  Head Section Adjustment

 
  b. 

By loosening two locking knobs beneath the 

back  section,  an  additional  1.5"  of  longitudinal 
adjustment  can  be  achieved.    If  desired,  the 
head  section  may  be  removed  by  loosening  the 
locking knobs and pulling it straight out of the back 
section. 

The  6701  Hercules  Table  has  the  capability  of 
attaching the head section to the leg section for 
use as a foot extension ONLY.  Do Not reverse the 
patient  on  the  table  without  first  consulting  with 
SKYTRON.  

Two locking knobs are located on the inside of the 
leg  section  for  securing  the  head  section.    See 
figure 2-19.

Figure 2-17.  Emergency Brake Release     

NOTE

•The  Emergency  Brake  Release 
Valve  must  be  closed  and  tightened 
(counter-clockwise)  before  activating 
any hydraulic function.

•If  the  Emergency  Brake  Release 
Valve has been operated, the BRAKE 
UNLOCK button on the pendant control 
will have to be pressed before brakes 
will lock again.

2-9. Head Section

  a.

 A quick release positioning bar located under 

and to the front of the head section (figure 2-18) 
is used to raise or lower the head section.  Pull 
the release bar toward the head end to allow the 
section to pivot up or down.  Positioning from 60° 
above  horizontal  to  90°  below  horizontal  in  15° 
increments is available.  Release the bar to lock 
the head section in position.

•Prior  to  unlocking  brakes,  check  for 
obstructions  on  the  floor  that  might 
prevent the table from moving smoothly 
to  new  location.  Relock  the  brakes 
immediately  once  the  final  position 
is  reached  and  before  commencing 
surgery.  Table  brakes  should  remain 
locked  at  all  times  if  patient  weight 
exceeds 500 pounds.
