Injury hazard!
If the operating table is not wide enough to en-
able an ergonomic patient position, then the pa-
tient may be injured.
The table width extenders (1001.75A0 / 76A0)
may be mounted on the side rails of the operat-
ing table to enable ergonomic patient position-
ing.
Only one infusion stand (1009.01C0), one anaes-
thesia screen (1002.57A0), one wristlet
(1002.24C0) and one arm protector (1002.25A0)
may be mounted to the table width extenders
(1001.75A0 / 76A0).
When positioning the patient, be sure to observe
that the patient is lying above the centre of the
column in the lateral direction (see sketch).
Injury hazard!
It is not permissible to mount another table width
extender to a table width extender 1001.75A0/
76A0.
Injury hazard!
The nursing staff must ensure the patient is prop-
erly positioned and observe the patient’s condi-
tion in order to avoid endangering the patient’s
respiratory system, nerve pathways and circula-
tory system.
Injury hazard!
Keep the patient under continuous observation
when adjusting the knee crutches.
Hazard of tipping over!
Immobilize the operating table prior to transfer-
ring the patient! Press the LOCK button!
Note:
After standstills, actuate the operating table func-
tions to check proper functioning before positioning
the patient.
Press the function buttons height up/down, Trende-
lenburg/reverse Trendelenburg, lateral tilt right/left,
back palte up/down, leg plates up/down for two to
three seconds each. Finally, press the 0-position
button (z) to align the operating table horizontally.
The functions of the corded hand control are de-
scribed on page 9.
Note:
Depending on the patient weight, the speed of the
motor-powered adjustment and displacement func-
tions will change.
When lowering the table while a heavy patient is
lying on the table top, the speed of downward move-
ments will slighly increase.
The adjustment speed will be reduced during up-
ward movments.
