2.1Operational Test (Models 409-004
and 409-005) (See Figure 2-1)
In order to effectively diagnose a malfunction of the 409004 and 409-005 Pediatric Examination Table, it may be
necessary to perform an operational test as follows:
WARNING
Refer to the Operator Manual for com-
plete instructions on operating the
table. Failure to do so could result in personal
injury.
NOTE
The Operational Test, for the most part, only
describes what should happen when the table is
operated. If the table does something other than
described, a problem has been discovered. Refer to
the Troubleshooting Guide to determine the cause of
the problem and its correction.
Also, this operational test procedure is based on units
that have a beam scale; some units do not have a
beam scale - For these units skip to step 14.
(6) Remove any items from table top. Set large
poise weight to zero, making sure it is seated in
notch and set small poise weight to zero, making sure small poise weight is pushed firmly
against shoulder of beam.
(7) Observe. The beam pointer should balance in
center of trig square, indicating scale is zeroed.
NOTE
Use the calibrated test weight which should be hanging on a storage hook on the right rear of the table.
The test weight will have a label indicating the calibrated weight of the test weight.
(8) Place the calibrated test weight on center of
upholstered table top.
(9) Using the large poise weight and small poise
weight, set beam scale to a setting which is
equal to calibrated test weight.
(10) Observe. The beam pointer should center in
the trig square indicating beam scale is within
tolerance.
(1) Move table top locking handle to LOCK posi-
tion. Attempt to move table top (See
Figure 2-1).
(2) Observe. The table top should be firmly locked
into a stationary position.
(3) Move table top locking handle to UNLOCK posi-
tion.
(4) Observe. The table top should not be locked
into a stationary position anymore. Look
between table top and base. There should be
approximately a 1/4 in. (6.35 mm) gap between
locking rails and bottom of table top; at the very
least, there should not be any contact.
(5) Push down on center of table top a few times to
align and exercise all internal scale parts.
(11) If beam scale does not center, adjust the small
poise weight and/ or large poise weight as necessary to center beam pointer in trig square.
(12) Determine how much beam scale reading dif-
fers from weight of calibrated test weight. The
allowable tolerance is ±1 oz. (28.3 g).
(13) Hang the calibrated test weight on its storage
hook, located on right rear of table.
(14) Remove any items from table top and then
move table top locking handle to LOCK position.
(15) Extend linear scale fully. Using a carpenter
square, check to see if the linear scale is
square with back of table top when scale is fully
extended.
2.2Operational Test (Models 409-006
and 409-007) (See Figure 2-2)
In order to effectively diagnose a malfunction of the 409006 and 409-007 Pediatric Examination Table, it may be
necessary to perform an operational test as follows:

The illustrated parts list provides information for identifying and ordering the parts necessary to maintain the
unit in peak operating condition. Refer to paragraph 1.5
for parts ordering information.
6.2Description of Columns
The Item column of the parts list gives a component its
own unique number. The same number is given to the
component in the parts illustration. This allows a part
number of a component to be found if the technician
can visually spot the part on the illustration. The technician simply finds the component in question on the illustration and notes the item number of that component.
Then, he finds that item number in the parts list. The
row corresponding to the item number gives the technician the part number, a description of the component,
and quantity of parts per subassembly. Also, if a part
number is known, the location of that component can be
determined by looking for the item number of the component on the illustration.
The Part No. column lists the MIDMARK part number
for that component.
The Description column provides a physical description
of the component.
The Qty. column lists the number of units of a particular
component that is required for the subassembly. The
letters “AR” denote “as required” when quantities of a
particular component cannot be determined, such as:
adhesive.
Bullets { • } in the Part No. column and the Description
column show the indenture level of a component. If a
component does not have a bullet, it is a main component of that illustration. If a component has a bullet, it is
a subcomponent of the next component listed higher in
the parts list than itself that does not have a bullet. Likewise, if a component has two bullets, it is a subcomponent of the next component listed higher in the parts list
than itself that has only one bullet.
6.3Torque Specifications and Important
Assembly Notes
When specific assembly torque specifications, measurements, or procedures have been identified, by our
engineering department, as required to assure proper
function of the unit, those torque specifications measurements, and procedures will be noted on the parts
illustrations. Adherence to these requirements is essential.
