CLEANING
Model 1015 stretchers are designed to be power−washable. The unit may show some signs of oxidation or
discoloration from continuous washing. However, no degradation of the stretcher’s performance characteristics or functionality will occur due to power washing as long as the proper procedures are followed.
S
Follow the cleaning solution manufacturer’s dilution recommendations exactly.
S
Remove the mattress prior to washing the unit; do not wash the mattress with the stretcher.
S
Position the Fowler at 45_, place the unit in full reverse Trendelenburg (foot end down), raise the siderails,
and place the I.V. poles and push handles in the up position.
S
Stryker Medical recommends the standard hospital surgical cart washer for power washing Model 1015
stretchers.
S
Do not replace the mattress on the stretcher until the unit is completely dry.
S
Before returning the unit to service, verify all labels are intact, verify the brake/steer pedal locks properly
in both positions and check all components for proper lubrication.
DO NOT STEAM CLEAN THE UNIT. Use a maximum water temperature of 180_F/82_C. Maximum air dry
temperature (cart washers) is 240_F/115_C. Water pressure − 1500 psi/103.5 bar. If a hand held wand is
being used to wash the unit, the pressure nozzle must be kept a minimum of 24 inches/.61m from the unit.
Stretchers must have maintenance performed after a minimum of every fifth washing. Refer to the maintenance manual for specific lubrication instructions.
Failure to comply with these instructions may invalidate any/all warranties.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the display enclosure for the optional scale system. Do not allow cleaning solutions or other fluids to pool on the display unit. Wipe dry all surfaces after spills or cleaning.

Quaternary Germicidal Disinfectants, used as directed, and/or Chlorine Bleach products, typically 5.25% Sodium Hypochlorite in dilutions ranging between 1 part bleach to 100 parts water, and 2 parts bleach
to 100 parts water are not considered mild detergents. These products are corrosive in nature and
may cause damage to your stretcher if used improperly. If these types of products are used to clean
Stryker patient handling equipment, measures must be taken to insure the stretchers are rinsed with clean
water and thoroughly dried following cleaning. Failure to properly rinse and dry the stretchers will leave a corrosive residue on the surface of the stretcher, possibly causing premature corrosion of critical components.
NOTE
Failure to follow the above directions when using these types of cleaners may void this product’s warranty.
REMOVAL OF IODINE COMPOUNDS
This solution may be used to remove iodine stains from mattress cover and foam footrest pad surfaces.
1. Use a solution of 1−2 tablespoons Sodium Thiosulfate in a pint of warm water to clean the stained area.
Clean as soon as possible after staining occurs. If stains are not immediately removed, allow solution to
soak or stand on the surface.
2. Rinse surfaces which have been exposed to the solution in clear water before returning bed to service.

STATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS
The electronic circuits in the stretcher are completely protected from static electricity damage only while the
stretcher is assembled. It is extremely important that all service personnel always use adequate static protection when servicing the electronic systems of the stretcher. Whenever you are touching wires, you should
be using static protection.
Static Protection Equipment
The necessary equipment for proper static protection is:
S
1 static wrist strap; 3M part number 2214 or equivalent,
S
1 grounding plug; 3M part number 61038 or equivalent,
S
1 test lead with a banana plug on one end and an alligator clip on the other; Smith part number
N132B699 or equivalent.
CAUTION
All electronic service parts will be shipped in static shielding bags. Do not open the bags until you have completed steps 2 and 3 of the following procedure. Do not place unprotected circuit boards on the floor. All circuit
boards returned to Stryker should be shipped in the static shielding bags the new boards were shipped in.
Static Protection Procedure
1. Turn off the main power switch at the foot end of the stretcher and unplug the power cord from the wall
receptacle.
2. Insert the grounding plug into a properly grounded hospital grade wall receptacle. Plug the banana plug
of the test lead into the receptacle on the grounding plug. Connect the alligator clip on the other end of
the test lead to the ground chain of the stretcher.
3. Place the static control wrist strap on your wrist. Connect the alligator clip at the other end of the wrist strap
cord to the ground chain of the stretcher.
