WARNING:
TRIPPING HAZARD: Make sure to route the power cord so that it will not create a tripping
hazard.
SHOCK HAZARD: Monitor the electrically conductive properties of the floor locks (all
models) and casters (B2AV800S(K) and B2AV800(K)). Measure their resistance level
according to the requirements of NFPA 99 before placing table in use. Subsequent
routine testing should be performed at least once every three months.
PATIENT INJURY HAZARD: A potential hazard exists when the surgical table is used
together with high-frequency surgical equipment such as cardiac defibrillators and cardiac
defibrillator-monitors. In certain conditions the antistatic properties of the mattress pads
could become insufficient to prevent burns to the patient's skin. Care must be taken to
ensure that the insulation between the mattress pad and the patient's skin is maintained,
including monitoring the bed sheet for excessive moisture, which could compromise this
insulation. Carefully read the manufacturers' instructions of the aforementioned
products, as they relate to patient safety.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD: Only authorized service personnel should be allowed to
remove the covers.
INSTABILITY HAZARD: Using an NUVO surgical table and/or NUVO accessories or
accessories manufactured and sold by other companies for a purpose other than the
stated purpose could result in patient or user injury, and/or table, accessory, or other
property damage.
UNANTICIPATED TABLE MOVEMENT HAZARD: Secure patient to surgical table
according to recommended positioning practices.
EXPLOSION HAZARD: Do not use surgical table with flammable anesthetics.
INFECTION HAZARD: When cleaning the surgical table, personnel should wear gloves,
a mask, eye protection, and other safety equipment which will protect body parts from
exposure to aerosols which could be deflected from contaminated surfaces.
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD: When installing any surgical table accessory, check for
correct attachment and tighten securely (if applicable). Do not use worn or damaged
accessories.
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD: Only recommended cleaners/disinfectants should be
used on NUVO surgical tables. Do not use alcohol, which does not have sufficient
cleaning/disinfecting properties, or phenolics, which when inadequately rinsed off could
