5.3 Preventative Maintenance
The following preventative maintenance procedures should be carried out every 12
months.
Other than general maintenance activities all other service or repair work must
be performed by qualified and trained persons who are approved by Arjo.
WARNING
The couch must be disconnected from the mains power supply before starting any
maintenance activity. Avoid skin contact with lubricants.
GENERAL
1
Examine the couch for obvious signs of damage. All aspects of the equipment
should operate as intended. Check that all nuts, bolts and other fasteners are
tight and are not missing.
2
Examine flexible cables and conduits for cuts, cracks, abrasions or other
deterioration.
3
Check that the power supply plug is not damaged. If either the power cable or
plug is damaged, then both the cable and plug must be replaced as a complete
assembly by an approved service agent.
CASTORS
1
Apply the brakes and push the couch forwards. If any of the four braking
castors rotate the brake is not fully effective.
2
Check the steering lock castor for correct operation.
3
If either the brakes or the steering locks are not working correctly contact an
approved service agent.
FOLD-DOWN ARMS
1
Inspect the Arms for general wear and tear on fittings and pivot joints every six
months. Check for rust, structural integrity of welds and paint finish every twelve
months.
2
Raise the Arm and lock in position. Refer to the operating procedures in this
manual for further instruction. Ensure that locking operation operates smoothly
and check for wear and tear of pivot screw and arm posts.
PAPER ROLL HOLDER

has not been compromised in any way.
