CLEANING THE BRACKET SYSTEM
CLEANING PROCESS
WARNING
Follow your EMS service protocol or medical device's manufacturer user guide for the recommended cleaning
procedures of your medical devices. The cleaning procedures below do NOT provide recommendations for the
maintenance of other medical devices. The following cleaning guidelines consider the Technimount mounting system
and its components.
The Bracket can be cleaned by using a pressure washer. The bracket may show some signs of oxidation or discoloration
from continuous washing, however, the cot / stretcher's performance or functionality will not be affected due to
power washing if cleaning instructions are properly followed.
The material used to manufacture the Bracket is high-grade aluminum. Although very durable and resistant to
corrosion, high levels of sodium or a high concentration of sodium or acid may prematurely corrode the product.
Always rinse with soft soap and water if exposed.
9 Use of a power washer can accelerate removal of contaminants collected during the use of the product.
9 Rinse with clean water.
9 Towel dry all components.
9 Allow all other components to air dry.
9 Avoid over saturation and ensure that the product does not stay wet longer than the cleaner's manufacturer
guidelines for proper disinfecting.
WARNING
9 When cleaning, always use appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE) based on established protocols (e.g.,
gloves, eyewear, etc.).
9 Refer to the product Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for chemical information or handling, storage and emergency
measures in case of accident.
CAUTION
9 Do not steam clean or use ultrasonic cleaners on the system or any of its components.
9 Do not immerse the metal parts/components in water.
9 Maximum water temperature should not exceed 180°F / 82° C.
9 Maximum water pressure should not exceed 1500 psi / 103.5 BAR. If a pressure washer is being used to clean the
unit, the pressure nozzle must be kept a minimum of 24 in. (61 cm) from the unit.
