When reusing the hoist or for use for a new patient, the hoist must be prepared in
accordance with „RKI guidelines for hospital hygiene and prevention of infection“ and
the „Guidelines for the preparation of medical products“ and all relevant requirements
must be observed. The Medical Devices Act and its regulations must be observed.
The hoist and its accessories should be cleaned and disinfected before a change of
patient or at 2-weekly intervals. Regularly clean to remove fluff and dust from the
double castors.
Attention
•
Clean the hoist with water and a cloth dampened with a commercial disinfectant.
•
Do not immerse electrical parts in water.
•
Where approved procedures and hygiene plans for preparing the hoist already
exist, these should be used.
•
Follow the instructions for use prescribed by the manufacturer of the disinfectant.
•
If necessary check with the manufacturer of the disinfectants that they will not
harm the hoist system.

and must not contain any corrosive substances. Substances contained in them must
not alter the surface of the plastic and they must not degrade the lubricant.
