Monthly
Before every use
Before installing
Inspect for evidence of external damage or missing parts.
Ensure all components are in working order.
Using the clip-on level, make sure that all posts are straight. If any post is not straight remove the
track and level post accordingly.
Red mark on top of each post (under the top plate) is not visible.
The tracks are secured in place. Press down on each track to make sure they are locked onto the
posts.
Clean the inside of the tracks to ensure there is no dust or grease build-up inside the tracks.
Check to make sure that the trolleys move freely along the tracks.
Make sure the padding on the foot and top plate is clear of any foreign substance and is not
damaged. Have the paddings replaced accordingly.
* Which ever comes first: Annually - every 1400 patient transfer cycles - every 50 assembling/disassembling cycles.
WARNING
: If any of the above inspection point fails, DO NOT USE the
EASYTRACK
system until
appropriate corrective action is taken.
Annual Inspection by an Authorized Technician
The
EASYTRACK
must be inspected by a qualified Arjo technician on an annual basis to ensure
the proper functioning of its components, as well as the safety of the patients and care givers that
use the
EASYTRACK
. Please contact your local representative to make arrangements.
NOTE
: If the product does not work as intended, immediately contact your local Arjo agent for
support.
Cleaning
To clean the
EASYTRACK
, wipe it down with a damp cloth using warm water and mild detergent.
CAUTION
: Do not use phenol, chlorine or any other type of solvent that may damage the
finish.
To ensure a better rolling surface for the trolley wheels, clean the inside of the track every four
months. To do so, insert a damp cloth in the opening and slide it from one end of the track to the
other.
