TROUBLESHOOTING
The Saunders at Home Cervical Traction device features a very accurate, sensitive
gauge The pump is specifically designed not to leak in the "HOLD" position If
you notice a drop in the gauge reading when in the "HOLD" position it is probably
because you have relaxed or moved slightly If this happens, return to the "PUMP"
position and pump back to the desired force, then reset to "HOLD " Proper operation
of the Saunders at Home Cervical Traction device requires that the air system
be virtually leak-free If the traction force is not maintained, there may be a leak
somewhere in the system Please contact the service team if this is noticed
Questions to ask yourself before initiating the therapy:
•
Is the pump in the "PUMP" position when pumping?
•
Is the pump in the "HOLD" position when receiving treatment?
•
Are you lying still? (Any movement will cause fluctuation )
•
Are you pumping slowly?
•
Are all connections tight (i e hose cap, lens cap, good hose connection at the
cylinder?)
If the unit is leaking air, try the following:
•
Check the air hose connections at the cylinder and the pump and gently
tighten as necessary Do not over-tighten as the threads may strip
•
Make sure that the unit has not slipped and gone to full excursion (4")
•
Perform a POP test With no one in the unit, pump up the pressure until the
unit makes a loud pop (at about 50 lbs ,) then rotate the gauge to the release
position, and proceed with your treatment
