1.2 Product Description
5 746-270-2
11/05
On all models the power driven functions of height, backrest angle and
leg elevation are operated by push button controls. The Auto Contour
button simultaneously operates both backrest and leg elevation. The push
button handset(s) is accessible to either patient or attendant. It may be
pendant type or built-in to split safety sides.
An additional handset, for use by the attendant, is stored beneath the
Attendant Control Panel (ACP) at the foot of the bed. Tilt angle can be
controlled only from the attendant handset. The ACP enables the power
driven functions to be individually disabled. Operation of the bed by the
patient is thus at the discretion of the attendant.
The electrical actuators consist of a screw and nut assembly driven by a
24V d.c. motor and gearbox. Power for the actuators is derived from a
mains operated d.c. power supply with emergency battery back up.
A built-in power socket allows Huntleigh Healthcare air mattresses to be
connected directly to the bed. The socket is supplied from an
uninterruptable power supply (UPS) which will maintain operation of the
mattress system in the event of mains power failure or when the bed is
being moved. Some Models may be supplied without the power socket
and UPS.
The bed is equipped with an integral patient weighing system, which is
supplied with power from the UPS (if fitted).
Model C985B bed is equipped with an X-ray translucent backrest
incorporating a cassette carrier to provide the facility for chest X-ray
photography.
Model C988B bed is equipped with a full-length X-ray translucent
mattress platform, allowing head-to-toe X-ray photography to be carried
out.

1.3 Operation
At the foot of the bed is a pair of linked brake pedals that operate on all
four castors.
When the pedal is pushed down, the brakes are applied on all four castors.
When the pedals are in the middle position, the brakes are free and all
four castors are able to rotate and swivel.
When the pedal is lifted up, one head end castor is engaged so that it
cannot swivel. Always engage the castor in line and trailing. The bed can
then be steered by pushing from the foot end.

ambient temperature range of 10°C to 40°C.
e) For best results, the patient should be positioned approximately
centrally on the bed.
f) The weighing system is capable of detecting relatively small
movements of the patient. It is therefore necessary for patient
movement to be minimised during the few seconds required to
obtain a stabilised reading and that the operator / nurse stands clear
of the bed during this time.
g) When weighing, the handsets must be replaced in position on the
platform.
Lift and pull out the sliding tray beneath the foot end of the mattress
platform to gain access to the UIM.

A series of horizontal dashes along the top edge of the display indicates
21 746-270-2
11/05
that the safe working load of 250kg has been exceeded.
This means either the patient is too heavy for the bed or an excessive
amount of equipment has been added to the bed prior to placing the
patient on the bed.
If the latter is the case, remove equipment from the bed using the auto-
compensation facility.
A series of horizontal dashes along the lower edge of the display indicates
that the allowable limit for added equipment of 100kg has been exceeded.
If, when the Reset button is pressed, a series of horizontal dashes appear
along the top edge of the display, this indicates an overload condition.

1.6 Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS)
The UPS is located in an enclosure on the base of the bed at the head-end. It
provides power at 230V a.c. to the outlet socket at the foot-end of the bed as
well as to the patient weighing system. When the bed is disconnected from the
mains power supply the UPS will continue to provide this power derived from
its own internal batteries.
To turn the UPS off: Open the cover (1) on the patient’s left-hand side of the
enclosure and press the on/off button (2).
If the UPS has been in use and its internal batteries have become discharged,

3 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Before commencing any maintenance activity, disconnect the
bed from the electrical power supply and switch off the UPS.
Avoid skin contact with lubricants. Gloves and protective
clothing should be worn when carrying out maintenance work.
3.1 General
Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. Make sure that all nuts,
bolts and other fastenings are secure and not missing.
Examine the flexible mains and handset cables for cuts, abrasions, kinks
or other deterioration. Check the power connector plug for damage.
Check that the adapter fuse is of the correct type and rating (BS 1362, 5
Amp).
If the power connector plug or cable is damaged, they must be replaced as
a complete assembly.
After long use, release cables may stretch. This could prevent proper
operation of the CPR release.
To remedy this, adjust the two lock nuts on the inner cable at the release
lever end.
Refer to Section 6, sub-section 6.24 and 6.25.
Check the brakes for efficient operation. Apply the brakes and push the
bed. If any of the castors rotate, the brake is not fully effective. Set the
brake pedal in the steering position and verify that one head end castor is
engaged so that it cannot swivel.
26 746-270-2
11/05
Brakes that fail to lock effectively indicate that the castor requires
adjustment or replacement. Refer to Section 6, sub-section 6.6 and 6.7.
3.4 Batteries
If, when the bed is operated using the batteries a bleeping sound is heard,
this indicates a low charge condition. The bed should be re-connected to
the mains power supply, for a minimum of 24 hours, in order to recharge
the batteries.
Check the condition of the batteries using the following procedure:
1. Ensure that the bed has been connected to the mains power supply for
24 hours.
2. Disconnect the bed from the mains power supply.
3. Apply a load of 80 kg (= 12 stone person) to the mattress platform.
4. Raise and lower the mattress platform, from minimum to maximum
height, three times.
5. If the bed does not operate satisfactorily in step 4, perform steps 1 to 4
again.
If the bed again fails to operate satisfactorily, the batteries are not holding
sufficient charge and they should be replaced. Refer to Section 6, sub-
section 6.12.
Check the safety sides for obvious signs of damage. Make sure that all
nuts, bolts and other fastenings are secure and not missing. Make sure
that the mechanism that locks the safety side in the raised position
engages positively.

WARNING
Danger of explosion. Do not heat or incinerate.
High pressure gas. The sudden release of gas at high pressure
could cause serious injury or death. Wear suitable protective
clothing, eye protection and/or a face shield.
1. Operate the valve at the end of the piston rod and allow the piston rod
to extend fully.
2. Clamp the gas spring in a vice and drill a hole approximately 3mm
diameter at position 1 as shown in Figure B-1. Screen off the drilling
point because metal chips and oil may be ejected due to the high
internal pressure. Then drill a second hole at position 2 as shown. The
holes should be drilled to a depth of approximately 10mm.
3. Operate the valve at the end of the piston rod and push in the piston
rod.
4. Drain oil from the gas spring by pumping the piston rod in and out
several times.
5. Dispose of the gas spring and oil through raw materials trade or
special refuse points. Do not dispose of gas springs or oil in household
refuse.
If correct disposal in accordance with these instructions is not possible,
the unit should be returned to the supplier.
