1.3.4 Function Verification and testing of product and accessories
After the installation is completed, it must be checked that the red mark in the upper
part of the inner tube just below the top plate is not visible. This should also be checked
regularly by the use of the pole. If the red marking is apparent the cause may be:
o
Too week ceiling structure that causes the power of the pole pushing the ceiling
up. Then use the Top plate Big or the ceiling must be reinforced, or the pole
must be moved to an area where construction is strong enough.
o
The tightening screw on the quick release may have loosened. Tighten the nut
on the quick release till it sits tight.
When recycling the pole, all surfaces must be inspected for damage. Take special care
of the list in the top- and base plate which make the friction ring. If this shows sign of
darkning, it should be replaced.
After this control, the pole must be installed in a room where the ceiling is solid, and
the Quick Release must be checked so that the red marking is not visible after
installation.
1.3.5 Disassembly
Pull out the foot pedal and open the quick release. The inner tube can now be pushed down into
the outer tube.
1.3.6. How to use
Gripo Alu can be used in many situations where there is a need for support. Use of equipment
and methods will in cooperation with the user, the therapist and the supplier`s qualified person
be best taken care of.

1.3.7 Error Indications and check out of these
If the pole seems loose, out of plumb or there are marks on the floor or the ceiling that indicates
that the pole has displaced, the assembly must be checked by a competent person.
If the red mark on the top of the inner tube appears, the pole must not be used before new
installation is done and checked. This may indicate that the pole is either not installed correctly
or the ceiling is not strong enough.
1.3.8 Inquiry by mistake
If an error occurs, using problems or suspected wrongly installation, please contact your
supplier. By request, always give the serial number affixed to the pole
