Mackworth TX600 User Manual page 31

Should the Hoist require a more thorough clean, the use of the Actichlor™ disinfectant product (which is widely available in
tablet form and used throughout the health care industry) is recommended.
Follow the manufacturer's safety instructions for the use of the cleaning product before use to ensure safe use for
the operator and the patient.
Ensure the cloth is damp before the cleaning process.
Application is through a clean damp cloth applied to wipe the device down. Use in the following dilutions to ensure an effective
clean:
• Actichlor™ dissolvable chlorine tablets provide a concentration of 1000 ppm of available chlorine (0.1%) per 1 tablet
• 1 tablet (1.7g formed tablet (x1)) will create a virucidal solution, diluted in 1 litre of water to provide effective means to
clean a "dirty" device. This is also ideal for use after an outbreak of the Norovirus/winter vomiting and can be used as a
precaution against C.Diff. It is effective against viruses, bacteria, spores, yeasts and moulds.
• The contact time against the outer components of the device should be for 5 minutes to prevent any virucidal
infections without a degradation to the functionality of the device. 5 minutes is a recommended contact time. The
device can withstand a longer contact period but the 5 minute recommendation as a minimum must be followed to
provide an effective cleaning regime.
• Blood spills should be dealt with by an increased concentration of the solution – please refer to the instructions on the
manufacturers product labelling.
