Replacing Manikin Skins

The manikin skins may need replacement if they have torn,

perforated or stained.

1 Unzip and roll the skin off.

2 Powder the inside of arms, torso and legs to reduce friction while

replacing the manikin skins.

To prevent tearing of the zippers from skins, make sure to properly
position the skin halves and hold them together while zipping them
closed.

Replacing Blood System Filter

If reduced blood flow is experienced, the filter may be clogged and needs replacement.

Never run the manikin without filter.

1 Turn off the manikin.

2 Remove genitalia with the catheterization assembly for easy access.

3 Disconnect the filter from the right leg and pelvis blood tubes and remove it.

4 Connect a new filter by reversing the steps above.
