Installing the Whirlpool ,
General Guidelines for Use:
Ÿ
Medical advice is beyond the parameters of this
manual.
Ÿ
The whirlpool is for professional use only. A minimum of
one trained operator is required.
Ÿ
The trained operator must evaluate and verify that the
patient is suitable for hydrotherapy treatment before
beginning hydrotherapy with whirlpool. See
Patient
Evaluation , page 2.
Ÿ Follow your state and local hydrotherapy procedures
and, if the patient has one, the physician's order for
treatment (see
Patient Evaluation , page 2).
Ÿ
Stay with patient at all times.
Ÿ It is the operators responsibility to ensure safe practices
for the patient and themselves.
Ÿ If a turbine is used:
Plug the turbine cord only into a receptacle that is
voltage-matched, properly grounded and polarized.
Verify that the receptacle has GFI protection or order a
GFCI plug for the turbine cord.
Keep patient hair, gown strings and other loose items
away from the impeller housing to avoid entanglement
and injury.
Keep the area around the turbine clear. The turbine
requires a minimum of 24" (610mm) of clearance.
Ÿ
Avoid prolonged contact with the motor cover, as elevated
temperatures can cause discomfort.
Ÿ
Ambient temperatures during use should not exceed
95°F (35°C).
WARNING
!
Certain medical conditions are incompatible with
hydrotherapy. The trained operator is responsible for
determining each user's suitability for hydrotherapy
before beginning treatment.
Improper operation can cause injury. Operate the
whirlpool only as described in this manual.
An unattended patient can be injured. Stay with
patient at all times.
Loose items such as gown straps or gauze can be
pulled into the turbine impeller and cause injury. Keep
loose items away from the turbine impeller housing.
Important
Communicate with patient at all times. If a turbine is
used, tell the patient before starting or stopping the
turbine and before changing the water or aeration
level.
