CASTOR REPLACEMENT
NB: We would recommend that castor replacement is done by Aidapt or a qualified technician.
1.
Remove the existing castors
using a short reach 8 mm Allen
key (available from Aidapt).
2.
Replacement M12x35 bolts are
provided with each castor, the
removed bolts should be
disposed of.
3.
Apply a thread locking fluid to
the bolt to lock the assembly
securely. We recommend the use
of Bondloc B243 or Locktite 243.
4.
Assembly should be screwed tightly and the castor should sit flush with the frame.
(i.e. there should be no gap between the castor and the frame)
NB: Where leg extension pins are in place it is recommended that the extension pins
are replaced at the same time as the castor.
For further technical details contact Aidapt.
COMMODE BUCKET
To remove the commode bucket, simply slide the bucket out from the chrome runners at
the rear of the commode. Cover the top of the bucket to avoid splashing, carefully dispose
of the contents into a proper sluice or WC. Never use an open drain, sink or basin. This
could cause a serious health risk. To avoid the possibility of trapping, do not slide the
commode pan on or off the rails while somebody is sitting on the chair.
Clean out the residue with a suitable disinfectant and refit to the commode after use
NB. Always remove the commode bucket prior to removing the grey horseshoe seat.
CLEANING
A useful guide to decontamination is MHRA leaflet DB2003(06).
Do not use abrasive cleaners as this could damage the surface of the equipment. For
cleaning, wipe with a clean cloth soaked in detergent solution and wring out. Depending
on the detergent manufacturer’s instructions the solution may be heated.
Wipe all surfaces of the equipment and the cloth should be re-immersed periodically and
the detergent changed frequently. The detergent should be rinsed or wiped off using a
clean cloth immersed in clean water and wrung out.
To disinfect make sure the equipment has been cleaned and dried and then wipe over with
a clean cloth and a compatible liquid disinfectant. After disinfecting clean with clean water
and dry.
