4. Operations S afety

 Always use a mattress of the correct size and type. A range of suitable pressure reducing and pressure relieving mattress are availabl e from Huntleigh Healthcare.  When the bed is operated, make sure that obstacles such as bed side furniture do not restrict movement.  Before operating the bed, make sure the patient is positioned correctly to avoid entrapment or imbalance.  Always apply the brakes when the bed is stationary.  Lower the bed to minimum height when the patient is left unattended.  Keep these instructions handy for reference.

Brakes and S teering Central Operation There are two coupled brake pedals at the foot of the bed. When they are pushed down from the horizontal free position they operate all brake castors simultaneously. When the linked pedals are raised from the horizontal free position they engage one head-end castor so that it cannot swivel. Push the bed in the direction of travel so that the castors are all in-line and trailing, then lift either pedal to engage the steering castor. For easy access of brake/steer pedals it is imperative to apply brakes before lowering the bed to its extreme low position, and raising the bed before attempting to release the brakes or engaging track lock (steer) so that the bed can be moved.

WARNINGS Brakes should be activated at all times whilst bed is stationary. Track lock will self-disengage when fully lowered.

Individual Operation To operate braking, push down on the brake lever on each castor. When moving the bed, push from the foot-end holding the foot panel

Adjusting the knee break angle Operation The height, backrest angle and leg elevation functions are all power driven. Control Handsets The patient handset is accessible to either patient or the nursing attendant. From this handset the patient can control all bed functions. When a handset push-button is pressed the appropriate bed function will operate until the push-button is released. Batteries (battery back-up model only) The emergency back-up battery is automatically switched on if the bed is disconnected from the mains power supply. The batteries will enable emergency power operation for short periods of time. An example of this would be when the bed is being moved between wards. To ensure the batteries are kept fully charged, the bed must be connected to the mains power supply at all times during normal use. Patient Transfer If the patient is to be transferred by means of a patient hoist, the bed will need to be raised enough to allow hoist access underneath the bed.

Warning Bed functions, particularly Hi-Lo are not to be used during patient transfer. 5. Cleaning

Warning Disconnect the bed from the mains power supply before cleaning. Gloves and protective clothing should always be worn when carrying out cleaning procedures. These instructions also apply to accessories but not to mattresses. Wipe all surfaces with a soft cloth moistened with hot water and mild detergent (or the hospital’s recommended cleaning solution). Take extra care with areas that may harbor dirt or dust. Rinse with clean water and dry with a paper towel

To remove potentially infectious material such as body fluids, or even when the bed has been used by somebody with a know infection, clean afterwards with NaDCC (e.g., Presept, Actichlor) at 10,000 ppm of available chlorine. Rinse and dry. Allow the cleaned parts to dry before replacing the mattress.

Caution Do not use abrasive compounds or pads. Do not use hypocarbonate or phenolic cleaning solutions. 6. Maintenance / Troubleshooting The following preventative maintenance procedures should be carri ed out at intervals of 12 months or as specified. All service or repair activities must only be performed by properly quali fied and train persons who are approved by Huntleigh Healthcare. Disposal of product and components should be compliant with local regulations.

Warnings Disconnect the bed from mains power supply before starting any maintenance activity. The bed will still operate on battery backup power if handset buttons are pressed (battery backup model only). Avoid skin contact with lubricants. General Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. All aspects of the equipment should operate as intended. Make sure that all nuts, bolts and other fastenings are tight and are not missing. Examine fl exible cables for cuts, abrasions, kinking or other deterioration. Make sure that the electrical power cable plug is not damaged. If either the plug or cable is damaged then both the plug and cable must be replaced as a complete assembly by an approved servi ce agent.

Individual Locking Castors Checks every six months should be conducted on the castor assemblies in order to check for looseness. To do this, apply the brakes and lift the bed off the floor. Castors should be securely fixed in to the castor tubes. If a problem is found, re-tighten the fixing bolts to the underneath of the castor assemblies.

Castors and Brakes Apply the brakes and push the bed forwards. If any of the three or four braking castors rotate, the brake is not fully effective. Check the steering lock for efficient operation (central operation only). If either the brakes or the steering lock (central operation only) are not working as they should, contact an approved service agent.
