Maintenance Guide

CLEANING THE SAFETY ARM SYSTEM (CONTINUED)

CLEANING SOLUTIONS CONTINUED

WARNING

Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product if used improperly.

If the products described above are used to clean the equipment, the Safety Arm System must be rinsed with clean

water and thoroughly dried following cleaning. Failure to properly rinse and dry the Safety Arm will leave a corro

sive residue on the surface of the product, possibly causing premature corrosion of critical components.

REMOVAL OF IODINE COMPOUNDS

Use a solution of 1/4 Tablespoon of Sodium Thiosulfate in 1 pint / .5 litre of warm water to clean the stained area.

Clean as soon as possible after staining occurs. If stains are not immediately removed, allow solution to soak or stand

on the surface. Thoroughly rinse surfaces with clean water and allow to air dry before returning unit to service.

WARNING

Failure to properly clean contaminated parts or components will increase the risk of exposure to blood borne pa

thogens and may cause injury to the patient or the operator.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

A preventive and regular maintenance program should be established for all Technimount equipment. Preventive

maintenance may be required more frequently based on the usage level of the product. The Safety Arm System

requires regular preventive maintenance. Establish and follow a preventive maintenance schedule and keep records

of preventive maintenance activities (see maintenance form).

CAUTION

Close attention should be given to safety features including, but not limited to the clamp block, tubular arm, sur

face plate, and standard surface base mount.

Improper maintenance can cause injury or damage to the product. Maintain the product as described in this user

guide.

LUBRICATION

The Safety Arm System has been designed to operate without the need for lubrication. Due to an anodization of the

metallic parts, using a silicone-base lubricant can be used but it is not necessary. If you’re not sure about the product

to use, please contact technical support or customer service.

CAUTION

Failure to use authorized parts, lubricants, etc. could cause damage to the cot/stretcher and will void the warranty

of the product.
