Certified technical personnel familiar with the cot/stretcher’s specifications should complete the installation of the
clamp block. Refer to the cot/stretcher manufacturer’s manual before installing the Safety Arm System and ensure
that the installation of the Safety Arm System does not damage or interfere with the use of the cot/stretcher.

Inspect regularly the clamp block and Standard Surface Base for any issue and loose screws, bolts and nuts.

Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if used improperly. If such
products are used to clean Technimount equipment, the equipment must be rinsed with clean water and tho

roughly dried following the cleaning. Failure to properly rinse and dry the Arm will leave a corrosive residue on the
surface of the cot/stretcher, possibly causing premature corrosion of critical components.

Installation of the Safety Arm System was designed to be placed on either side of the stretcher with the use of the
right or the left Safety Arm System (patient right or left). When ordering, it is important to identify which side the
Safety Arm is to be located. The Safety Arm System cannot be reversed as the clamp block has been designed for
a specific side.

A preventive maintenance program should be established for all Technimount equipment. Preventive maintenance
may need to be performed more frequently, based on the level of use of the product. Close attention should be
given to safety features (i.e.: safety pins, and attachment points).
9
Failure to use authorized parts, and lubricants, etc., could cause damage to the arm and will void the warranty of
the product.

This user guide should be considered a permanent part of the Safety Arm System and should remain with the pro
-
duct even if the arm is subsequently sold.

Always manipulate the arm at the lower position of the cot/stretcher, as much possible; high lever may unbalance
the cot/stretcher with violent movement or unpredictable motion.
