Preventive Maintenance
Chapter 6: General Procedures
For shipping and storage, put the removed P.C. board in an antistatic
protective bag. Equipment damage can occur.
P.C. Boards
Be careful with a P.C. board when you service it, or these problems may occur:
• P.C. board damage
• Shortened P.C. board life
• Unit malfunctions
When you service a P.C. board, do as follows:
• Make sure hands are clean and free of moisture, oily liquids, etc.
• Only touch a P.C. board by its outer edges.
• Do not touch the P.C. board components. Finger contact with the board
surface and/or with its components can leave a deposit that will cause
board (and component) deterioration.
• When you work with electronics, wear an applicable antistatic strap, and
make sure it is correctly grounded.
• Service the removed P.C. board at a static-free workstation that is correctly
grounded.
• For shipping and storage, put the removed P.C. board in an antistatic
protective bag.
Preventive Maintenance
Only facility-authorized persons should service Hill-Rom® Stretchers.
Service by unauthorized persons could cause personal injury or
equipment damage.
It is necessary for Hill-Rom® Stretchers to have an effective maintenance
program. We recommend that you do annual preventive maintenance (PM) and
testing for Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations
(JCAHO). PM and testing not only meet JCAHO requirements but will help to
make sure of a long, operative life for Hill-Rom® Stretchers. PM will
minimize downtime due to excessive wear.
