OPERATION
General
DANGER
Do not use the LiftMate in an explosive or
oxygenrich atmosphere. To do so will result in
an explosion or fire.
WARNING
If the LiftMate malfunctions, immediately
remove your hand from the controls, press one
of the “Emergency Stop” buttons, unplug the
power cord from the electrical receptacle, and
assist the patient from the unit. If LiftMate
continues to malfunction, call for service. Do not
attempt to repair LiftMate yourself.
WARNING
Keep personnel and equipment clear of LiftMate
before initiating movement to avoid personal
injury or damage to the equipment.
CAUTION
The hand pendant is moisture resistant and runs
on low voltage, eliminating shock hazards.
However, to avoid temporary or permanent
damage to the hand pendant, do not immerse in
water or liquids.
CAUTION
Keep foreign objects away from hand pendant.
To avoid accidental operation, be sure the hand
pendant is NOT positioned between the LiftMate
and any other object. Failure to do so could
result in unwanted motion and possible injury to
patient or operator, or damage to LiftMate or
exam table.
NOTE: For optimum LiftMate performance, allow the
unit to reach room temperature before operating.
NOTE: The LiftMate is not designed for continuous
operation.
The control system includes a thermal overload
safety switch to protect from overheating. If the unit is
operated continuously causing the control to exceed its
allowable operating temperature, the thermal overload
safety switch will shut off. If normal operation ceases,
do not attempt to operate the unit. Allow the unit to
cool for 10-15 minutes before attempting to use again.
The thermal overload switch will automatically reset
when it has reached a safe operating temperature.
NOTE: Each control function will automatically stop
moving when either the UP or DOWN travel limit is
reached. If the hand pendant is pressed with travel at
its limit, the actuator will not operate. Sensors prevent
the actuator motor from operating when travel limit
has been reached, preventing wear of the actuator.
