SPECIAL USER INFORMATION
The extreme positioning capabilities of the 3100
series tables requires special attention for possible
interference points when using multiple function
positioning. As with the operation of any surgical
table, a certain amount of care should be exercised
to position the patient safely. Although the thick
pads and sheets substantially protect the patient,
pinch points, located at the joints of the top section
should always be considered. BE SURE THAT
THE ARMS, HANDS AND FINGERS OF THE
PATIENT, AND THOSE OF THE OPERATING
ROOM PERSONNEL, ARE CLEAR OF ALL MOVING PARTS BEFORE MOVING THE TABLE.
Proper restraints should always be used for patient
safety.
Certain accessories can be damaged when changing the position of the table top sections. Always
look first to see if a desired movement is going to
interfere with any accessories in use.
The operator has the ultimate responsibility of
preventing damage or possible injury. In general,
common sense will dictate when there is a potential hazard.
The following precautions should be reviewed
by all personnel prior to operating the table.
WARNING
DO NOT use the table in the presence
of FLAMABLE GASES.
NOTE
In case of a power failure or an electrical problem within the table, the emergency brake release system can be
used to move the table. The control
lever for this function is located on the
side of the table base and is identified
by an EMERGENCY BRAKE RELEASE
label. Turn the lever counterclockwise
to release the brakes.
NOTE
The Emergency Brake Release Valve
must be closed before any hydraulic
function will operate.
IMPORTANT
•The Emergency Brake Release Valve
must be tightened securely when not in
use.
•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.
NOTE
The table will lift and articulate a patient
weight of 500 pounds assuming normal
positioning of the patient.
NOTE
Activating any function button will activate the brake system. Using the TABLE
UP function to set the brakes provides
a visual assurance that the brakes are
locked. As the brake cylinders are
extending, the entire table will move
slightly. When the table top begins to
elevate, the brakes are fully locked.
WARNING
DO NOT unlock brakes when a patient
is on the table. An uneven patient
weight load may cause instability.

ENCLOSURE
SKYTRON’s Model 3100 and 3100A surgical tables
are electro-hydraulically operated surgical tables
with special x-ray equipment compatibility features.
See figure 1-1.
A longitudinal top slide capability of 23-1/2 inches
allows clearance for C-arm coverage of 58-3/4
inches without the need to reposition the patient. Xray cassettes can be loaded into a movable tray
from the head end of the table. A manual hand
crank system allows cassette positioning throughout an unobstructed range of 65 inches. A travel
indicator next to the hand crank indicates where the
center of the cassette tray is located in relation to
the positioning guide on the side of the table for
precise x-ray positioning. The full radiographic
table top allows clear sharp x-rays throughout the
cassette travel range.
The hydraulically-operated (built-in) kidney bridge
on the Model 3100 is made up of movable table top
sections. This allows total unobstructed radiographic capability with the kidney bridge in use. The
kidney bridge is not available on Model 3100A.
Manual controls are provided for cassette tray
positioning, emergency brake release, and leg
section removal.
1-2. Power Requirements
The Elite 3100 series tables require a 120VAC, 60
Hz electrical power supply. The table is equipped
with a 15 foot long, power cord with a standard
three prong, hospital grade plug. The electrical
protection fuses are located on the front edge of
the base. See figure 1-2. The main power ON/
OFF switch is located on the electrical enclosure.

X-ray cassettes can be inserted into a positionable
tray at the head end of the table. See figure 2-13.
The cassette can be positioned for x-ray coverage
of up to 65 inches from the head end of the table.
The removable tray attaches to the drive mechanism with magnets. To position the cassette tray
within the table, rotate the manual crank handle
located on the side of the table. A positioning guide
on the sides of the table corresponds with the travel
indicator for precise cassette positioning. Use the
positioning guide (if the guide is not visible due to
table draping, a measuring tape can be used) to
determine the desired location for the cassette.
Insert the cassette into the tray and rotate the
manual crank until the desired position is achieved
