detailed in the service schedule, section 5.4, by Eschmann
trained or accredited engineers.
1.6 The service schedule provided in this manual details
a program of maintenance work to be carried out at six
monthly intervals, refer to the applicable section of this
manual for details of how to perform these various functions.
Any special adjustments required for components are
detailed in the part replacement (section 6.0) for that item
to save duplication. As routine the Service Schedule should
be followed in the event of an additional service due to a
fault developing with any aspect of the table, this will ensure
that all aspects of the table are covered.
WARNING
Ensure that the correct screw torque settings
are used as detailed within this manual to
ensure safety and that parts are not damaged.
1.7 Throughout this manual there are recommended
torque settings for many of the screws. In the main, these
are only provided on the illustrations. Ensure that these
are checked and the correct torque settings are used where
specified. These are provided to ensure safety (i.e. screws
are tightened correctly) and that components are not
damaged by excessively high torques.
1.8 Fig. 1.0 identifies the main parts of the T20-a
operation table.
1.9 The table can be placed into a ‘Service Position’ that
provides easy access to components within the ‘top of
column’ area (ensure table is switched ‘off’ before opening
top). To achieve this position first note the safety warning
in section 4.1. Remove as much as possible from the table
top (e.g. leg and head sections, accessories and
mattresses etc.). Remove the top of column steel covers
(items 13 and 14 of Fig. 6.1). Remove the four M10 screws
(each side) that secure the trunk sections to the pedestal
(not the M6 cap head screws that can be seen passing
through the oilite bushes on each side) and allow the trunk
section to pivot (short trunk down) about the oilite bush
pivots (item 16, Fig. 6.3). Extreme care should be taken at
all times with the table in this position, especially during
transition into and out of the ‘Service Position’. Use tool
number T2203 to maintain contact between the connector
blocks if required when the table is in the ‘Service Position’.
When returning the table out of the ‘Service Position’ ensure
the eight M10 screws are tightened to the correct torque
and that the covers are replaced.
1.10 The ‘Instructions for use’ (provided with the table)
contain all the cleaning, disinfection and care instructions,
consult this for these aspects as they are not duplicated in
this manual.
CAUTION
Continued use of the table batteries when
‘critically low’ can damage the batteries. Charge
batteries regularly to maintain peak
performance. Do not remove the table from
charge until both charging LED’s are ‘green’ to
avoid false battery level indication on the
handset.
