3.10 Load capacity of operating table with two-piece operating tabletop
Risk of personal injury and material damage when permissible
loads are exceeded
• Do not exceed the permitted load capacity for the operating
table. When exceeding the permitted load capacity, the mobile
operating table could tip over, resulting in severe injuries to
patients and personnel. In general, overloading the operating
table can lead to a failure of electrical functions and cause
material damage to mechanical parts.
The operating table is approved for a maximum patient weight of
450 kg / 992 lbs. The maximum load may only be applied to the
operating table if the conditions in Chapter 3.10 are met. Consult
Baxter regarding the permissible load in any configuration of the
operating table other than that described in these instructions for
use.
The load consists of the weight of the patient and the net weight
of the accessories. Additional accessories on the operating
tabletop therefore reduce the permissible patient weight. The net
weight of the accessory parts must be deducted from the
permissible patient weight.
Regardless of the load on the operating table, the load on the
individual accessories and tabletop sections must be complied
with. The requirements are indicated in the instructions for use of
the products.
The values stated are valid for an evenly loaded operating tabletop
(surface load).
Special case:
Risk of personal injury and material damage when permissible
loads are exceeded
• In the case of an operating table composition with the light
one-part leg section, the patient's weight is limited to 135 kg /
297 lbs. A different leg section must be used on the operating
table for a heavier patient.
Overload protection:
Risk of personal injury. Hazard to the patient.
• If the operating table reports a problem with the operating
table load, the operating table configurations specified in
Chapters 3.10.1 to 3.10.11 must be followed without fail.
The electronics system of the operating table constantly checks
the loading situation and warns the user of an overload on the
operating table.
For an operating table load very close to a load limit, all active
movements stop, an audible signal sounds and a warning message
is displayed on the remote control. On the remote control, the
function button flashes, signaling that it is enabling an evasive
