When using the table, ensure that all accessories are properly mounted to it and check the function of acces-
sory lockings and adjustments.
When using the speciality headrest (100020126), ensure patient safety by releasing the headrest locking
before adjusting the back section. A warning label is affixed to the headrest.
The antistatic properties of the operating table require the use of Merivaara brand mattresses and antistatic
flooring.
Gas spring dismantling instructions are available from your sales representative. The release of nitrogen gas
is strictly prohibited, without following the proper instructions.
If the operating table has been in the cold, it must be allowed to warm up at room temperature for at least 6
hours before recharging the battery or switching on, to allow any condensation formed to evaporate.
All packaging cardboard should be recycled. Wood and plastics are energy waste.
The operating table is heavy (165 kg).
We recommend recharging the battery regularly overnight after a day’s use. This ensures that the table is
always ready for use and it extends the battery life. Charging takes approx. 5-10 hours, depending on the
battery charge status. The batteries also have sufficient capacity to be charged only once a week.
The equipotential point (DIN 42801) is located on the table base.
We recommend use of the equipotential point whenever operating and when using
patient monitoring equipment. Read all manufacturer instructions.
Dry the operating table carefully by wiping down with a dry cloth immediately after cleaning or disinfecting.
If the operating table batteries should quit during a procedure, connect the table to the main power supply
and continue as normal. Batteries can be charged while adjusting the table.
The switch in the table base can also be used as an emergency shutoff, if necessary.
Because batteries are problem waste, they must taken to a problem waste disposal facility.
When moving the operating table, ensure that any accessories mounted on the side or the back section
kidney elevator crank do not cause any damage.
