Unpack:
The ALS Simulator is packaged without the legs attached . Remove the upper
body and legs from the packaging and attach the legs to the torso .
To attach Right Leg (with enclosed air tank):
1 . Remove bladder reservoir from pelvis .
2 . Remove blank genitalia module from pelvis .
3. Carefully slide the tubing and wiring exiting the fixed bolt from the upper
thigh of the right leg through the connector hole and into internal cavity of
pelvic area . (Photo 1)
4 . Continue to advance the bolt and wiring though the connector hole until the
thigh is flush with the pelvis of the manikin.
5 . From inside pelvic area, slip the longer air connection tube through the
provided thumb nut, then slip the shorter electronic wire through the
thumb nut .
6 . Connect the wire and cable inside the pelvis .
7 . Tighten the thumb nut until desired articulation is achieved .
8 . Replace bladder reservoir in torso .
9 . Replace blank genitalia module in pelvic region of torso .
