changing the position of the spoon (GAMMA G5, G7, GP)
The spoon is normally set for right-handed use. If you wish to inflate the cuff with the left hand, the spoon can be
re-positioned for left-handed use:
• Remove the ball from the instrument with a twisting and pulling motion.
• Loosen the two screws near the air intake but do not screw them out completely.
(A special tool is supplied with GAMMA G7 for this purpose).
• Rotate the base of the spoon through 180° and re-tighten the screws.
• Grip the neck of the ball and push it back onto the air intake with a twisting motion. If necessary moisten the air
intake to ease fitting.
