EX3™ Stepper
ATTACHING STEPPER TO STABILIZER
1. Slide stepper interface plate into stabilizer interface plate. Secure by tightening stepper quick connect knob.
PLACING PROBE IN STEPPER AND OPTIMIZING INSERTION PROFILE
NOTE: For GE Healthcare ERB transducer: Transducer handle must be removed.
1. Open the cradle latch.
2. Place and orient transducer into the cradle.
3. Close cradle latch and tighten knob.
4. Loosen grid rail locking knobs and pull back on grid rail so grid platform is out of the way for initial transducer positioning.
NOTE: Free longitudinal movement achieved by fully disengaging longitudinal movement detent knob by turning counterclockwise. Enable
n
stepping function by turning knob clockwise until tight.
Free rotation of cradle achieved by disabling rotational movement detent knob by turning counterclockwise. Enable rotational detent by
n
turning knob clockwise until tight.

DEVICE INSPECTION

1. EX3 Stepper should hold transducer securely, allow smooth rotation and precise movement along longitudinal axis of the transducer.
FUNCTIONAL PREUSE CHECKS
WARNING
Prior to each use perform the following checks to ensure optimal stepper performance.
n
1. Rotate longitudinal movement knob to ensure carriage moves freely through full range of linear travel and performs stepping function.
2. Rotate cradle to ensure movement through full range of rotational travel.
3. Rotate vertical adjustment knob, grid rail locking knobs, and horizontal adjustment knobs to ensure movement through full range of rotational
travel.
4. If carriage, cradle or knobs do not move freely, apply lubricant that complies with hospital policies and procedures. Super Lube
Synthetic Grease with Syncolon
NOTE: If horizontal adjustment knob does not move freely, lubricate surface areas of adjustment slide block.
n
If carriage does not move freely, lubricate outer edge of index drum.
