6. SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Before starting any service or maintenance procedures, ensure that the
equipment has been adequately decontaminated.
Avoid contact with lubricants. Rubber gloves and protective clothing should
be worn when carrying out maintenance work.
The bed and its sub-assemblies are heavy and could cause serous injury or
death by crushing. When working beneath the mattress platform, the
equipment must be properly supported with suitable lifting devices, blocks or
stands.
Use only replacement parts that are approved by Arjo.
Use only parts listed in this manual; similar parts from other Arjo products
may not be compatible.
If single use fasteners are removed, they should always be replaced with new
parts.
CAUTION
After replacing any cable or actuator, check that none of the cables are kinked,
strained or pinched. Adjust the cables to remove any slack that could become
entangled in the bed mechanism. Verify that these conditions are maintained
over the full range of movement of the bed sections.
Do not allow electrical components to come in contact with aggressive
chemical agents, e.g. cutting oil.

•
Replacement of specific components and sub-assemblies
