3. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
This product has been designed to be virtually maintenance-free between service
intervals. The degree of periodic maintenance required will be determined by use and
condition.
The following preventative maintenance checks and procedures should be carried out
every 12 months.
All service and repair activities must only be carried out by properly qualified and trained
persons approved by Arjo.
Disposal of the product and its components should be compliant with local regulations.
WARNING
Before starting any maintenance activity, disconnect the bed from the mains
power supply. The bed sections will still operate on battery power unless the
function has been disabled on the side rails outer controls or ACP.
Avoid skin contact with lubricants. Gloves and protective clothing should be
worn when carrying out maintenance work.
3.1 General
Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. Make sure that all visible fixings/fasteners
are secure and not missing.
Examine all flexible cables for cuts, abrasions, kinks or other deterioration.
Check the mains plug and cable for any signs of damage. If either the mains plug or cable
is damaged, both must be replaced as a complete assembly. Under no circumstances
should the integral moulded plug be replaced with a rewireable plug.
3.2 Castors and Brakes
Check the brakes for efficient operation.
Check that the steering lock operates effectively.
Poor braking or steering performance indicates that one or more castors require
replacement (the castors on this product are not adjustable).
