OWNER’S MANUAL
1. Wall/Desk Power Source
The Welch Allyn No. 74250 Wall/Desk Power Source is designed with
versatility in mind. There are several mounting options.
1. Wall mount
2. Desk top mount
3. Desk edge mount
Features of the Wall/Desk Power Source include:
Condensing lens
storage area
On/Off switch
rheostat control
Scope turns on
when lifted from
cradle
to headset
UL/IEC/CSA approved
plug-in transformer
Wall Mounting
Fasten the mounting plate to the wall with the appropriate screws (wood
screws are provided). Flat side of the plate should be facing the wall,
long sides should be horizontal. When the screws are tightened, there
will be a gap between the screw head and the surface of the plate.
Mount the Wall/Desk bracket by fitting round holes in back plate over
screw heads, then pushing downward on case. This slides the tapered
slots in the back over the shoulders in the mounting plate.

Desk Top Usage
The Welch Allyn Wall/Desk Power Source can be set on any flat sur-
face. To prevent scratching and sliding, the small rubber pads should
be attached to the bottom of the unit. Remove the pads from their
backing and place them on the outermost corners of the unit’s base.

Mounting
Desk Edge Mounting
NOTE: Do not use rubber pads if mounting to the EDGE of a desk
or table.
The Welch Allyn Wall/Desk Power Source can also be mounted on
the edge of a desk or cabinet. This will allow the Binocular Indirect
Ophthalmoscope (BIO) to hang unobtrusively, close to your task area.
To mount the Wall/Desk bracket on the edge of a desk or cabinet, it
must be secure so the weight of the BIO does not tip it over. To secure
the unit to the desk top, apply the two-sided tape found in the acces-
sory bag to the back edge of the base of the Wall/Desk bracket.
NOTE: Make sure the surface is clean before attaching. Locate the
bracket so the cradle is hanging over the edge of the desk. When the
bracket is in the desired position, apply firm pressure to it so it becomes
properly and evenly seated.
NOTE: If the Wall/Desk bracket ever needs to be relocated, it can be
removed by prying up on one end. Any tape residue can be removed
with an alcohol wipe.

Operation
Once the Wall/Desk bracket is mounted, the unit is ready for use. Plug
the Power Source into an appropriately-grounded outlet. Then plug the
cord from the Power Source into the receptacle labeled “in” on the
Wall/Desk bracket. To complete the connection, screw the external
sleeve down until it stops — this will secure the plug in place. The cord
from the BIO should be connected to the “out” receptacle in the same
manner that the power source is connected. Be sure to complete the
connection by screwing the external plug sleeve down until it stops.
ON
OFF
IN
OUT
When the BIO is in the cradle of the Wall/Desk bracket, the unit is
always off and the Light Emitting Diode (LED) on the front of the unit
is turned off. When lifted from the cradle (with on/off rheostat in on
position), power to the BIO is on and the LED will illuminate. The rheo-
stat control/on-off switch controls power to the instrument as well as
illumination intensity.
Cleaning
All surfaces may be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with alcohol.
Maintenance
Periodic technical inspections should be performed by qualified per-
sonnel. This equipment should be inspected at least once every six
months, more often if used under adverse conditions.

2. Portable Power Source
The Welch Allyn No. 74260 Portable Power Source provides complete
portability and ease of use.
Features of the Portable Power Source are:
Charging indicator
On/Off switch
and rheostat
control
Belt clip
In use/time
remaining
indicator
Back
Front
UL/IEC/CSA approved
direct plug-in recharger
Operation
When fully charged and operated at full
intensity, the Portable Power Source has
approximately fifty minutes of on-time. When
the BIO is used at half intensity, the on-time
is approximately seventy-five minutes.
To recharge the Portable Power Source,
plug the recharger into the appropriate outlet
and into the proper receptacle on the
battery pack. When the battery pack is re-
charging, the charge indicator will glow yel-
low. The battery cannot be overcharged.
NOTE: Be sure the on/off switch-rheostat
control is turned OFF during recharging.
Do not attempt to plug the recharging
cord into the same receptacle the BIO
cord plugs into.
To use the battery pack, plug the BIO cord
into the proper receptacle. The external
sleeve on the plug needs to be screwed
down tightly to ensure a non-interrupted
connection. Turn on the on/off switch-
rheostat control and adjust to the desired
intensity. When the battery pack is on,
the power indicator will turn green. When
approximately four to seven minutes of
ON-time remain, this indicator will change
to amber.

To Change the Battery
Unscrew the two screws which hold the housings
together. Be certain not to touch the green circuit
board or any of the components on it. Disconnect
the old battery pack from the connector and
attach a new battery pack. Install the battery
pack with label facing you, as shown. Be
sure the battery pack connector and wire
lies across the bottom edge of the housing,
as shown. Use only Welch Allyn No. 72240
rechargeable battery pack.
