5.1 Mounting adjustable feet

• Attach daylight loader DL24/DL26 or daylight attachment DA24 in place.

• Place the threaded sleeve (5) as supplied into the daylight loader or daylight attachment: for DL 26 in the two central inside sockets, for DL 24 in the two outside sockets.

• Place the threaded sleeve (5) with the threaded flanges to the bottom onto the adjustable foot (6) and rotate approx. 3 times.

The sleeve should not be screwed onto the foot too far, otherwise the sleeve cannot be placed properly into the daylight loader or daylight attachment.

• Place the sleeve together with foot into the molding of the daylight loader or daylight attachment. See Fig 5.

5.2 Installation note

Fix the daylight loader or daylight attachment to the X-ray processor XR24 using the 4 quicklock screws (7) at the back of the processor.

Turn the quick-lock screws clockwise until they click in place!

Place the cassette holder (8) right or left on the floor of the daylight loader as desired.

5.3 Attaching seal

After installation of the daylight loader the seal must be placed in position:

• Open the cover of the daylight loader.

• Place the seal (10) of the film feed (9) in position on the X-ray processor. The side with moldings should be to the bottom.

USE

6. FILMPROCESSING

During processing of thin layer (Extraoral) films, lid (11) must be completely closed otherwise films will be pre-exposed

7. FILM STORAGE

The film depot (13) can be used to store a maximum of 10 extra-oral films.

For the protection of both staff and patients, protective gloves must be worn when using X-ray processors.

When storing film in the film depot (13) the following must be observed:

Use up all films once a pack has been opened! This prevents films from being stored for too long and avoids the consequent grain effect on such film material.

• For films in the formats 12 x 30, 13 x 18, 15 x 30 hang the film holder (12) in the film depot (13). Place the film material in the film holder (12)

• For films in the format 24 x 30 or 24 x 18 the film holder is not required. Place the film material in the film depot (13); 24 x 18 films should be placed vertically in position

Close the lid of the film depot (13) after every removal of a film; otherwise there is the danger of a double exposure.
