OVERVIEW
The 9600 Mobile C-Arm is supported by four wheels with offset casters. This
includes two front wheel casters and two rear wheel casters. In addition there is
a balance wheel located underneath the battery tray that will prevent the Mobile
C-Arm from tipping backwards while transporting the system over an incline.
Four possible versions of the rear caster may be found in the field. The original
Surgi-glide I (-01) with side scan installed, an interim Surgi-glide version that had
side scan removed (-02), a third version (-03) with side scan reinstalled and the
latest version, Surgi-glide II.
Information concerning older versions will be found in shaded boxes throughout
this section.
