10.8 Replacing Non-Periodic Parts
All four platform casters are identical, and are mounted to the platform in the same way.
NOTE: If you have a means of lifting the chassis of the platform enough to access
the screw that holds on the caster, you can avoid removing the battery, which is
only necessary to tilt the platform on its side.
If you cannot lift the chassis enough to access the caster screw:
1. Remove the inner rear cover.
2. Unlatch and open the battery compartment door, at the back of the platform.
The battery compartment door is capable of being locked. You may need to unlock it
before opening.
3. Disconnect the battery by unplugging the two cables at the rear of the battery.
4. Remove the battery from the platform.
5. Remove the side covers.
6. Lay the body of the platform on its side, exposing the casters.
WARNING: Magnetic fields can be hazardous to medical implant wear-
ers. Medical implant wearers stay back 30 cm (12 inches) from the
underside of the platform, which is exposed during this maintenance
procedure when the platform is tipped on its side.
Whether or not you had to remove the battery:
1. Remove the M10 x 30 mm screw holding the caster to the platform.
The screw was installed with Loctite 263.
Retain the screw for attaching the new caster.
