WARNING
AVOID INJURY. DO NOT EXCEED TABLE MAXIMUM CAPACITY OF 227 KG

CAUTION
Temporal sampling may be degraded due to changes in timing for the table to
move from location to location if proper positioning methods are not followed.
Make sure that the patient is securely positioned on the table and their arms are
not allowed to drag on the table or allow clothing, sheets or blankets to get
caught causing a table move problem.
