ECOPOSTURAL C5506 Instructions page 15

English
When raising or lowering the stretcher or when operating its modules, MAKE SURE
THAT NEITHER THE PATIENT NOR THE THERAPIST ARE TRAPPED between the
moving parts of the lifting mechanism by hands, feet or any other part of the body or
clothing. Be careful, since there is a risk of entrapment between mobile and fixed parts
of the stretcher, or, and due to unexpected movements when activating its modules.
Only operate the stretcher when there is no possibility that any part of the body could
be trapped and injured while moving the stretcher up/down or activating the tilt of the
component modules.
Pay special attention in the case of children and/or unauthorized personnel. Do not
leave children alone or unattended in the area around the stretcher.
Maintenance or cleaning tasks must be carried out only by authorized personnel and
with the stretcher drive systems properly blocked.
For adjusting the height use the foot pedal. Press the foot control switch pedal: left downwards / right
upwards.
Attention: When adjusting the height, the stretcher makes a horizontal displacement of about 20 cm from
its initial position. This requires a space that facilitates maneuverability during the process of adjusting the
height of the stretcher. Take care during the process to avoid entrapment between the stretcher and the
wall or adjacent objects.
The distance from the lower end of the stretcher to the floor is < 150mm, therefore it is NOT suitable for
placing a standard lifting device with a 150mm base.
Placing objects higher than 14 cm under the stretcher can lead to dangerous situations and cause serious
damage.
d) SECTIONS adjustment
The head-/backrest section is operated by a gas spring (3)
Modular system manually operated by levers (5).
(3) Gas spring: Press the mechanism situated at the very edge of the section towards the upholstery and
the table section will go up slowly. Release mechanism to lock position. To lower the section, press the
mechanism with one hand and with the other hand, push the section downwards to the required position.
(5) Lever system: With both hands press the 2 levers under every side support to release the bar and
position simultaneously the panel at the required tilting. Release the lever and the support will lock itself.
NEVER adjust any of the table sections WHILE THE PATIENT IS LEANING ON.
Safely position your FINGERS AND HANDS AWAY from the upholstery edge to avoid any
accidental jamming.
3) MAINTENANCE
For safety reasons, DISCONNECT THE TABLE from the electrical supply before the table
cleaning, repair or servicing.
a) Metal FRAME
For a proper operation of the table, you should do the dusting regularly with a cloth.
We also recommend to periodically grease the axles at the moving parts with a liquid grease spray. Lay
the couch on its side and take off the white caps protecting the nuts at the axles of the framework. Slightly
unscrew the nuts and spray the product around the loosen nuts. Leave to settle in this position for 12
hours. Tighten the nuts and put the protective white caps back on. Lay the table on the other side and
repeat.
Periodically check the couch visually for any signs of damage and make sure that all bolts, nuts and other
fasteners are tight.
* Please note that the repeated exposure of the table to high levels of humidity is not recommended.
