ORB Assembly Guide

The ORB Assembly is probably one of the most challenging for new beginners using the BEFE / QEnergySpa System. We are hopeful that the video and step-by-step instructions are helpful.  90% of the time, the orb assembly or cable are the problems with operation. Once you understand this, you will be quite happy to proceed with your QEnergySpa sessions.

Review the video demo of Orb Assembly below.

The QEnergySpa is a precise and fragile electronic piece of equipment.

It is similar in fragility to a computer. Because of its unique assembly, it is wise to assemble or disassemble in bright light. This will allow you to view the preciseness of each and every part prior to use.

It Helps To Be…

Careful. The care you take in the assembly or disassembly of these delicate precision instruments will preserve them for the years to come. All acrylic parts: Orb and on the cable and mohawk (part of the cable). Once you understand how fragile and precise the acrylic parts are, you will appreciate your patience spent on taking care of your QEnergySpa. It is also extremely important to assemble and disassemble DRY components. It’s easy to slip and mishandle the wet parts. They break easily. They are precise and made to fit perfectly.

Prior to Orb assembly or disassembly:

Visually inspect each part in bright light. Look for cracks or any broken pieces on all acrylic and metal parts. Check the cable to be sure that it has no cracks, cuts, or crimps. Check for any abrasion on the cable. Be sure to completely disassemble the orb shell. This includes removing the buttons in each orb shell. The buttons, (the metal disc with rod) sometimes comes apart. This can disrupt the conductivity, too.
