CareFusion Alaris PK Plus MK4 8005PK201 Directions For Use Manual page 18

w Do not mount the Pump with the AC power inlet or the syringe pointing upwards. This could affect the electrical safety
in the event of a fluid spill or lead to the infusion of air which may be in the syringe.
Pole Clamp Installation
The pole clamp is fitted to the rear of the Pump and will provide secure
fixing to vertical I.V. poles of a diameter between 15 and 40 mm.
1. Pull the folded pole clamp towards you and unscrew the clamp to
leave enough room for the size of the pole.
2. Place Pump around pole and tighten screw until the clamp is
secured to the pole.
w
Ensure the pole clamp is folded away and stored
within the recessed area at the rear of the Pump before
connecting to a Docking Station/Workstation* or when
not in use.
Never mount the Pump such that the I.V. infusion stand
becomes top heavy or unstable.
w Prior to each use, check the pole clamp:
• does not show any signs of excessive wear,
• does not show any signs of excessively loose movement in the extended, mountable position.
If these signs are observed, the Pumps should be taken out of service for examination by Qualified Service Personnel.
Docking Station/Workstation* or Equipment Rail Installation
The rotating cam can be fitted to the rectangular bar on the Docking Station/Workstation* or the equipment rail measuring 10 by 25mm.
1. Align the rotating cam on the rear of the Pump with the rectangular bar on the Docking Station/Workstation* or the equipment rail.
2. Hold the Pump horizontally, push the Pump firmly onto the rectangular bar or equipment rail.
3. The Pump should click into position when fitted to the bar.
4. Ensure that the Pump is positioned securely. Verify Pump is secure by gently pulling the Pump away from the Docking Station/
Workstation* without using the release lever. When the Pump is securely attached, it should not come off the Docking Station/
Workstation*.
5. To release, push the release lever and pull the Pump forwards.
Warning: Pump may fall off the Docking Station/Workstation* if not properly mounted which could result in user and/or
patient harm.
