Manual Handling
The NOxBOXmobile system is handling a toxic
gas at high pressures. Care should be taken
when moving the trolley to ensure that it is
protected from excessive percussive knocks.
Before moving, ensure system brakes are
disengaged. Always use the metal frame of the
trolley to manoeuvre the system, ensuring a
secure grip to prevent unexpected movement.
Never attempt to move the equipment by pulling
on the system connection lines or gas cylinders.
When in use and attached to the patient, the
NOxBOXmobile should be placed to avoid any
tension within the connection lines to the patient
circuit. The system brakes should be applied to
prevent accidental movement of the equipment,
which could cause lines to disconnect from
the patient circuit or damage to any monitor
connections.
Gas cylinders can be heavy. Appropriate manual
handling techniques should be observed when
lifting cylinders on and off the system trolley.
Always engage system trolley brakes to stabilise
the platform prior to attempting to replace any
gas cylinders. Gas cylinders should be properly
restrained when on the trolley, using the
provided straps.
