General instructions for use
4. Position the patient at temple support "4" (Figure 18), resting the
chin on the support base 1. The hands should rest on the front
handles. Ask the patient to bite the reference notch of bite "3" on rod
"2" (Figure 18) with his incisors. In case of edentulous patients,
he/her must rest the chin against the reference shoulder of the
edentulous chin support.
5. Instruct the patient to close the eyes.
6. Press the ON button "20" of the laser centering device. Three
laser beams will light up the mid-sagittal plane line "45", the
horizontal line for the Frankfurt plane reference "46" (the plane that
identifies a line that ideally links the ear hole - the auditory meatus -
with the lower part of the orbital fossa Figure 18) and the canine
plane line "47" (Figure 18). Position the patient's head in such a way
as to ensure that the first two luminous beams fall in correspondence
of the respective anatomical references.
The luminous beam of the Frankfurt plane can be adjusted according
to the height of the patient. This adjustment is made using knob "5"
(Figure 18) located on the side of the tubehead.
7. Also, close the temple support acting on the two knobs "6" (Figure
18). The temple support will help the patient to stay in a correct
position. Check that, during this phase, patient has not changed the
position.
8. Press key "23" to confirm. The confirmation request LED
switches off. The luminous centering devices switch off and the
rotating arm goes to its examination start position. Once alignment
has been completed, the following message will be displayed:
