MAINTENANCE/CHECK
Annual check
The VENDLET V5 / VENDLET V5+ system must be service checked by a qualified
technician annually. This check will ensure that the safety issues pertaining to the
VENDLET system are in compliance with the standard as well as a long service life.
The annual check includes the following:
Mechanical parts
Check for signs of damage and crooked fittings and brackets.
Check the bars and support bars for dents/deformations.
Check whether the bar velcro tapes are attached and in good condition.
Sheets
Is the turning sheet in good condition?
Is the slide sheet in good condition?
Functional tests
Do all bolts and nuts match the parts list and are they evenly tightened? Is there a 1 mm
clearance between the end of the bar and the slide sleeve of the top fitting?
Check whether all four side rails are in place and in good condition.
Does the mounting meet all side rail dimension requirements?
Check whether it is possible to raise and lower the bars freely and in a parallel. It might be
necessary to remount the brackets to ensure proper height and width.
Check whether the VENDLET works as intended when the hand control is activated.
