Before lifting or lowering, after carrying out all the safety checks necessary for handling, adjust the harness and/or distribute the load inside the basket stretcher in
order to balance its horizontal position when it is then handled.
Whenever a patient is lifted onto a basket stretcher, the patient should be secured to the stretcher using an appropriate number of belts.
IT
Weather conditions, geographical location, height and weight of the patient, type of wound, etc. will determine the number of belts to be used. Specific training in this
high-risk area is essential for operators responsible for conducting operations.
12. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Spencer Italia S.r.l. declines all responsibility for any direct or indirect damage which is the consequence of improper use of the product and spare parts and/or in any
EN
case of any repair carried out by a person other than the Manufacturer, who uses internal and external technicians authorised to do so; moreover, doing so will invalidate
the warranty.
• The operator must wear suitable personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc. during all checking, maintenance and cleaning operations.
• Establish a maintenance schedule, periodic inspections and extend the average life span, if foreseen by the Manufacturer in the User Manual, identifying a reference person
DE
who meets the basic requirements set forth in the User Manual.
• The frequency of inspections is determined by factors such as legal requirements, type of use, frequency of use, and environmental conditions during use and storage.
• Repairs of products manufactured by Spencer Italia S.r.l. must be carried out by the Manufacturer, who shall make use of specialised internal or external technicians
who, using original spare parts, shall provide quality repair service in strict compliance with the technical specifications indicated by the Manufacturer. Spencer Italia S.r.l.
declines any responsibility for any direct or indirect damage which is a consequence of improper use of spare parts and/or any repair work carried out by unauthorised
FR
parties.
• Reconditioning, a process performed on the device to restore the technical and functional safety of the device used, for example re-registration, must be performed by the
Manufacturer.
• Where foreseen, use only original or Spencer Italia S.r.l. approved components/spare parts and/or accessories in order to carry out all operations without causing alterations
or modifications to the product.
ES
• All maintenance and overhaul activities must be recorded and documented with the relevant technical operation reports. This documentation must be kept for at least 10
years after the end of the product's life and must be made available to the competent authorities and/or the Manufacturer when requested.
• Cleaning, provided for reusable products, must be carried out in accordance with the Manufacturer's instructions in the User Manual in order to avoid the risk of cross-in-
fection due to the presence of body fluids and/or residues.
• If required, the product and all its components must be washed and left to dry completely before storage.
PT
• If the product requires lubrication, this must be done after cleaning and complete drying.
12.1 CLEANING
Failure to carry out the correct cleaning operations could increase the risk of cross-infection due to presence of body fluids and/or residues.
The operator must wear suitable personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc. during all checking and cleaning operations.
CS
Any metal parts exposed to external agents undergo surface treatments and/or coating in order to obtain better resistance. Clean the exposed parts with water and delicate
soap. Never use solvents or stain removers.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, making sure you have removed all traces of soap, which may deteriorate or compromise conditions and durability. Avoid using high
pressure water, as it penetrates the joints and removes lubricant, creating the risk of corrosion on components. Let dry completely before storing. Drying after washing or after
use in a wet environment must be natural and not forced. Do not use flames or other direct heat sources.
DA
If disinfecting, use products that do not have a solvent or corrosive action on materials constituting the device, in addition to being classified as medical-surgical devices. Be
sure to take all precautions to ensure that there is no risk of cross-infection or contamination of patients and operators.
In the case of disposable products, no cleaning is required except that the product be properly stored and packaged according to the manufacturer's specifications.
12.2 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
NL
If routine maintenance is planned, establish a maintenance program and periodic checks, identifying a designated reference person. The person entrusted with device
maintenance must ensure the basic requirements envisaged within this user manual.
All routine and special maintenance activities and all general overhauls must be recorded and documented with the relevant technical intervention reports. This
documentation must be kept for at least 10 years after the end of the device's life and must be made available to the competent authorities and/or the Manufacturer
when requested.
PL
The operator must wear suitable personal protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, etc. during all checking, maintenance and cleaning operations.
The device does not require a routine maintenance program, but checks must be made to verify:
• General functionality of the device
• Cleanliness of the device (remember that the failure of cleaning may cause the risk of cross infections)
• Fulfilment of the requirements of the user manual in section 5 Warnings and 6 Specific Warnings.
• Fulfilment of the requirements of the manual in section 11 Proper use.
