  • Causa
    Steris has determined there is a potential that if the surgical table feet become unlocked from the floor during a procedure, the hand control may incorrectly indicate that the table feet are locked and still contacting the floor. the user may not realize that the table is unlocked and is able to continue articulating the table using the hand control. should this occur, the table can be relocked by pressing the floor lock button on the table hand control.
