36. Patient Weight Limit
The trolley is designed to accommodate a maximum patient weight of 320kg (705.5lbs)
and has a safe working load of 320kg (705.5lbs).
The safe working load is the sum of the maximum patient weight, the weight
of any accessories attached to the trolley and the weight of the items on or
attached to those accessories. Therefore, if using accessories, the weight of
those accessories must be subtracted from 320kg (705.5lbs) to establish the
maximum patient weight that can be put onto the trolley.
CAUTION – Special Precautions for Handling Heavy Patients:
Heavy patients must mount the trolley at the centre of the platform and
their weight must be kept as evenly distributed as possible.
Patients must not sit at either end of the trolley as this may result in
tipping.
Once the patient has mounted the trolley the trolley should be manoeuvred
as little as possible; take care to avoid uneven floors, door thresholds and
lift thresholds.
Extreme care should be taken when attempting to raise or lower the
backrest and assistance should be sought to take the weight of the backrest
when released.
Extreme care should be taken when tilting the platform head down and
assistance should be sought to take the weight of the platform when
released.
WARNING: Exceeding the maximum specified patient weight limit could result
in failure of the trolley and injury to the patient and/or user.
37. K8 Pressure Care Mattress
The mattress is fixed to the patient platform with touch fasteners; this enables the
mattress to be removed from the trolley for cleaning and replacement. The mattress
cover is fitted with a zip so the mattress foam can be visually inspected.
The standard trolley is fitted with a mattress that is 700mm (27.6”) wide. The <800>
build option trolley is fitted with a mattress that is 800mm (31.5”) wide. It is important
to observe if the trolley carries the <800> label (see Section 41. Label Identification) to
identify that an 800mm wide mattress must be fitted.
WARNING: Incompatible mattresses can create hazards; only replace the
mattress with a new mattress supplied by Anetic Aid, or your authorised
dealer, to ensure compatibility in accordance with BS EN 60601-2-52:2010.
