4 General instructions
1.
Never adjust a section when it supports the full weight of the patient. Each section of this
ManuXelect is supported by gas springs. As well as easing operation they offer full support of the
sections. However, these gas springs are not strong enough to lift a section while it supports the
full weight of the patient.
2.
Use both hands to change the couch settings: one hand for unlocking and the other to adjust the
section.
3.
A maximum patient's weight of 150 kg is allowed with the 6000N motor KL95 (standard motor)

A maximum patient's weight of 250 kg is allowed with the 9000N motor SL80 (optional motor)
when the height of the couch is being adjusted.

Never let the motor exceed a few minutes continuous operation. If this should happen, a thermal
cut out shuts off the power and protects the motor against overheating. In that case, let the motor
cool down until it functions again.
