6.1 Maintenance Schedule
The stretcher requires regular maintenance. Set up and follow a
maintenance schedule. The table at right represents minimum
intervals for maintenance. Keep maintenance records. For a sample
record sheet, see "Maintenance Record" on page 39.
When using maintenance products, follow the manufacturers'
directions and read the manufacturers' material safety data sheets.
6.2 Service Life
Many factors affect a product's service life, including frequency
of use (high-volume versus low-volume ambulance service); local
environment (extreme temperature, high humidity, etc.); maintenance
(adherence to the inspection and maintenance schedule); and other
factors.
Follow the disinfecting, cleaning, and inspection procedures in this
manual to ensure long life for the stretcher.
6.3 Lubrication-Free Stretcher
The stretcher is constructed with lubrication-free materials. Do not
lubricate the stretcher. Applying lubricant can cause damage to the
stretcher.
Do not lubricate the upper or lower sliding actuator bearings. As
needed, clean only with soap and water. Rinse well to remove any
soap residue.
