Before use of the Flex-coil® Swivel System, reusable Shoe Mounting Kits must be installed in cages. Utilizing the adhesive backing on the Shoes and tubing tab/clips they can be attached to cages with Stainless Steel, painted steel, Formica, and plastic tops. With modification Shoes can also be mounted on mesh steel cage tops (contact International WIN, Ltd., for advice). For use in runs please contact International WIN, Ltd., for custom made Run Rods. The Shoes become an integral part of the cage, are reusable and are sealed to enable thorough cleaning and disinfection. The steps for typical installation follow. Before starting gather together a yard stick, “magic marker” pen and a Shoe Mounting Kit (Reorder Number SH9100). |

Start with a clean, dry cage. With the alcohol pads enclosed in the shoe mounting kit remove any residual soap or fatty substance in an area approximately 8 inches in diameter
around the top center of the cage. Also wipe a 3 inch wide strip on the top of the cage leading from the previously cleaned circle to the front of the cage along the approximate left-to-right centerline. Allow the alcohol to dry. |

Determine the true top center point of the cage with a yard stick. With the yard stick on edge position it diagonally across the top of the cage and place a small mark with a �Magic Marker� pen at the mid-point of the diagonal distance. Repeat the procedure along the opposite diagonal. The point between the two marks is the center point of the cage.

The next step is to attach the Shoe to the cage top. BE VERY CAREFUL as it is possible to attach the shoe BACKWARDS. The Flex-coil®
Swivel Set will only go in
one end of the Shoe and this
end should face forward towards
the front of the cage.
The Shoe has a thin trailing
surface. Think of this surface
as a "tail". The tail should be
facing the back of the cage.
In this picture the technician�s
left thumb and forefinger
are grasping the "tail".

and attach the Shoe to the top center of
the cage.

Press the Shoe firmly to the cage top at multiple sites and hold pressure at
the sites for at least 15 seconds.
Pressure and time are
important to insure a long lasting
installation.

Attach the 2 tubing tab/clips. These tab/clips hold the I.V. set tubing leading
to the Flex-coil® Swivel Set
along the top centerline of the
cage. First, divide the distance
from the front of the shoe to the
cage front into thirds along the
front-to-back centerline. Place a
small pen mark at the 2 sites. In
turn, remove the protective backing
from the 2 tubing tab/clips and
adhere the tab/clips (preferably
slightly off center so the tubing
clips are aligned along the centerline)
to the top of the cage near the
marks.
