Step 2. Unscrew the top portion of the large deep tissue applicator treatment head (Figure 30).
Caution: Dropping the ball may damage the ball.
Recommendation: Be careful when unscrewing the top portion of the treatment head. It is
recommended that this be done over a table to reduce the chance of dropping the ball directly on
the floor.
Step 3. The ball can now be removed for cleaning. Use a soft, non-fibrous wipe (e.g., Kimwipes
% isopropyl alcohol solution. Do not wipe with a dry cloth. Always dampen the cloth before wiping.
Step 4. Ensure that all cleansers have evaporated and the parts are dry before re-assembly and use.
Step 5. Reassemble treatment head by replacing the spacer ring, massage ball and screwing the top
portion securely on the treatment head.
Note: Do not discard the spacer ring (Figure 31). If the ring is upside-down or removed, the ball
will rotate. It is recommended for the ball not to move for veterinary applications.
